Spreading out from the cell body of a neuron are short, branched extensions called axons. This is false. The short, branched extensions are called dendrites.unction of axon: n axon is found on the end of a nerve cell in the body, known as a neuron, and its primary function is to conduct electrical signals from that neuron to receptor sites known as dendrites on other neuron surfaces.
During contraction, the myosin thick filaments grab on to the actin thin filaments by forming crossbridges. The thick filaments pull the thin filaments past them, making the sarcomere shorter. In a muscle fiber, the signal for contraction is synchronized over the entire fiber so that all of the myofibrils that make up the sarcomere shorten simultaneously. There are two structures in the grooves of each thin filament that enable the thin filaments to slide along the thick ones: a long, rod-like protein called tropomyosin and a shorter, bead-like protein complex called troponin.
