Difference between Action potential and Sarcoplasmic reticulum

Action potential vs. Sarcoplasmic reticulum

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise. The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is a membrane-bound structure found within muscle cells that is similar to the endoplasmic reticulum in other cells.

Similarities between Action potential and Sarcoplasmic reticulum

Action potential and Sarcoplasmic reticulum have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Calcium, Cell (biology), Ion transporter, Myocyte, Nanometre, Sarcolemma.

Calcium

Calcium is a chemical element with symbol Ca and atomic number 20.

Cell (biology)

The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms.

Ion transporter

In biology, an ion transporter (or ion pump) is a transmembrane protein that moves ions across a plasma membrane against their concentration gradient through active transport.

Nanometre

The nanometre (International spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures; SI symbol: nm) or nanometer (American spelling) is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one billionth (short scale) of a metre (m).

Sarcolemma

The sarcolemma (sarco (from sarx) from Greek; flesh, and lemma from Greek; sheath) also called the myolemma, is the cell membrane of a striated muscle fiber cell.

Action potential and Sarcoplasmic reticulum Comparison

Action potential has 263 relations, while Sarcoplasmic reticulum has 48. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 1.93% = 6 / (263 + 48).
