Protein (200−220 kDa, ~850aa) that forms a core in the thick filaments of invertebrate muscles. The molecule is rather like the rod part of myosin and has a two-chain coiled-coil a-helical structure, 130×2 nm. Paramyosin is present in particularly high concentration in the catch muscl...
The three types of muscles in the human body are skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. They differ in their physical characteristics, functions, and locations in the body. What are the 3 main parts of skeletal muscle? Each skeletal muscle is made up of three parts, the origin on a bone used fo...
The chest wall, which consists of the rib cage and interosseous muscles and fascia, lies underneath the pectoralis major muscle. Microscopically, the breast parenchyma consists of lobules and ducts. The ductal system of the breast is divided into branching segments that converge into major lacti...

Figure 1. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy molecule of the cell. During catabolic reactions, ATP is created and energy is stored until needed during anabolic reactions. The energy from ATP drives all bodily functions, such as contracting muscles, maintaining the electrical potential of ne...
