• Aerobic-OXYGEN• *wasteCarbon dioxide and Water vapor
• Anaerobic –NO oxygen• *waste Lactic acid• Muscle FATIGUE-build up of lactic acid or lack
of ATP

• 1. Ca+ diffuses across the sarcolemma into SR• 2. Troponin and tropomysin move away from
binding sites• 3. actin heads attaches to myosin strand• 4. actin head moves to center of sarcomere
