QuestionAnswer
________ is the sum total of all chemical reactions inside the body metabolism
What are the functions of the integumentary system Body temperature regulation, sensation, absorption, Vit D synthesis, excretion
How are mitosis and meiosis the same both produce daughter cells
What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis mitosis - creates duplicated cell with all chromosomes meiosis - creates a cell with 1/2 daughter chromosomes, only during creation of offspring
Atoms bound together behave differently than their parts? True or False True
What are the functions of the muscular system posture, movememt, stability, circulation
These cell structures increase the surface area and absorption of the cell membrane. Microvilli
Oxygen in enriched cells move into oxygen poor cells Diffusion
ACH is release from a neuron Vesicular Transport
Sodium moves across the cell membrane against the concentration gradient requiring energy Active transport
Water moves across semipermeable cell membrane to equalize both sides Osmosis
Fluids move from an area of high pressure to low through gaps Filtration
Examples of negative feedback systems blood pressure, blood sugar, bone growth, body temperature
The basement membrane is an area of skin that is served by a particular sensory nerve segment, from a spinal nerve False, it is a dermatome
2 effects of massage on the muscular system assist moving waste, muscle relaxation, connective tissue health, joint mobility,
What compound provides energy to break the actin-myosin cross bridges during muscle contraction ATP
When a muscle cell depolarizes sufficiently to initiate an action potential, which ions are release within the SR of a muscle cell calcium
This tissue heals quickly, reproduces rapidly, and does not contain blood vessels within its cells layers epithelial
What are the effects of aging on the skin that are massage considerations easily torn, less elasticity, risk of bruising, cold to the touch, dehydration
Is plasma leakage a specific process of inflammation that produces swelling Yes
What types of cells release histamine mast cells
What conditions would cause swelling and be a local contraindication for massage boil, broken bone, boil
An axon which excites or inhibits a group of muscle fibers which elicit movement is called motor unit
What affects the force of contraction recruitment, type of muscle fibers contracting, type of leverage applied, frequency of stimulation
Movement at any joint is determined by shape of the muscle direction of the muscle fibers pliability of structures that cross the joint relaxation of the muscles that oppose the movement
Contraction in which there is no change in the meter or measurement of the muscle fibers isometric
contraction in which the tone remains the same isotonic
Contraction in which muscle tension rises as the muscle shortens concentric contraction
contraction in which muscle tension rises as the muscle elongates eccentric contraction
Which type of muscle fiber generates a lot of force but fatiques rapidly fast twich fibers
Which metabolic cycle produces the most ATP aerobic respiration
Respiration in which oxygen is not used anaerobic respiration
Do all action potentials vary in intensity dependant on the intensity of the stimulus? No
Which mineral ions are stored in bone calcium and phosphate
All stimuli are ineffective unless it depolarizes the membrane. True or False True
How does aging affect joints arthritis, less ROM, joints become weakened, dehydration of joints increases
What are massage benefits for the skeletal system promote joint function support joint flexibility increase ROM encourage proper posture
Muscle Contraction Sequence 1. ACh is released 2. ACh are activated 3. Sodium is released into the sarcoplasm 4. Calcium is released into the sarcoplasm 5. Proteins are activated 6. ATP is broken down 7. Calcium is pumped back into the sarcoplasm
