Then a series of reactions known as glycolysis quickly breaks down each glucose molecule into two molecules of _________(blank 5).

Place muscle contraction steps in order Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Step 4: Step 5: Step 6: Step 7: Step 8: Step 9: Step 10: Step 11:
Step 1: Action potential occurs in the somatic motor neuron Step 2: ACH that is stored in the synaptic vesicle of the synaptic end bulb is released and diffused across the synaptic cleft Step 3: ACH binds to specific receptors on the motor end plate Step 4: Entry of Na+ ions causes depolarization of sarcolemma Step 5: Action potential travels along T-tubules Step 6: At the onset of muscle fiber contraction, the sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium ions into the sarcoplasm Step 7: The calcium ions then bind to troponin, which moves tropomyosin away from myosin binding sites on actin Step 8: Now that the binding sites are free, ATP is hydrolyzed into ADP and a phosphate. This energizes the myosin head which then assumes the "cocked" position Step 9: The energized myosin head then attaches to the myosin binding site on actin and a phosphate is released. This is referred to as the "crossbridge" Step 10: The myosin head pivots changing its position from 90 degrees to 45, pulling the thin filament past the thick filament towards the center of the sarcomere. This is referred to as the power stroke Step 11: Another molecule of ATP binds to the ATP binding site on myosin allowing for myosin to detach from actin
