Fig. 2. Proportions of contractile elements (myosin ATPase; open columns),
mitochondria (pale shaded columns) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR; dark shaded
columns) in synchronous muscle (A), asynchronous muscle (B) and singing muscle
(C) from insects. The frequencies noted reflect the typical contraction rates
for flying or singing for the muscle illustrated. Data from Casey and
Ellington (1989), Josephson and
Young (1985) and Ready
(1986).
