1. Hydrolysis is the decomposition of a substance by the insertion of water molecules between certain of its bonds. The third phosphate is removed by hydrolysis and free energy is released. ADPneedds to have another phosphate molecule in order to become ATP and this happens through hydrolysis. This ATP can be used in the muscle contraction and relaxation.
2. When one flexes his/her arm, the muscle on top is the bicep. The origin of the bicep is at the tubercule of the scapula and the insertion is at the bursa. The tricep is the muscle that is at the bottom of your arm. The origin is at the humerus and the insertion is into a white tendon that is attached to the ulna.
3. Antagonistically, referring to the bicep and tricep, means that they do opposite jobs, yet work for the same goal, which is the movement of the arm. They don’t necessarily work against each other, but with each other in opposite motions.
4. This muscle is in a relaxation state because the striations are long and uninterrupted. They are at their normal long length. This means that the myosin has not binded to the actin.
5. Nerves are the autonomic branch of the nervous system. They lead to both smooth and cardiac muscle. They regulate the strength and rate of muscle contraction.Muscle Contraction Tutorial/Review
