Facets:
value: in this process
type: TEMPORAL
Source sentences:
text: While several associated proteins help, actin and myosin form thick and thin filaments which slide past each other to contract small units of a muscle cell.
text: When calcium ions are released and binds to troponin on the thin filaments, myosin connects with actin which allows the thick filament and the thin filament to slide across each other.
text: These actin and myosin filaments slide over each other to cause shortening of sarcomeres and the cells to produce force.
text: In this process, actin and myosin filaments slide past each other shortening the sarcomere.
text: Sarcomeres are composed of long, fibrous proteins as filaments that slide past each other when a muscle contracts or relaxes.
text: Note that the actin and myosin filaments themselves do not change length, but instead slide past each other.
text: As the thick and thin filaments slide past each other the cell becomes shorter and fatter.
text: Muscle contraction occurs when sarcomeres shorten, as thick and thin filaments slide past each other, which is called the sliding filament model of muscle contraction.
text: Note that the actin and myosin filaments themselves do not change length, but instead slide past each other.
text: Note that the actin and myosin filaments themselves do not change length, but instead slide past each other.
text: Contraction occurs when thick and thin filaments slide past each other, pulling the muscle ends closer together.
text: When calcium ions are released and binds to troponin on the thin filaments, myosin connects with actin which allows the thick filament and the thin filament to slide across each other.
