🗑
Aponeurosis   Sheet like tendon  
🗑
Sarcomere   Unit bordered by z lines that contain Actin & myosin  
🗑
Sarcolemma   Cell membrane of a muscle cell  
🗑
Actin   Thin fibers involved in muscle contraction  
🗑
Myosin   Thick fibers involved in muscle contraction  
🗑
Motor Neuron   Nerve that innervates skeletal muscle  
🗑
Motor Unit   Muscle and nerve together  
🗑
Calcium   Attaches to Tropomin which slides Tropomyosin off of Actin  
🗑
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum   Stores calcium in skeletal muscle cells  
🗑
T-Tubule   Carries action potential deep inside muscle cell  
🗑
Concentric   Isotonic Movement  
🗑
Eccentric   Isotonic movement  
🗑
Isometric   No movement  
🗑
Recruitment   Increased # of Motor Units  
🗑

🗑
Neuromuscular Junction   Axon & Muscle  
🗑
Refractory Period   Muscle loses its excitability  
🗑
Latent Period   Stimulus applied & muscle actual contraction  
🗑

🗑
Endomysium   Surrounds each muscle fiber  
🗑
Myofibril   Proteins found in muscle fibers  
🗑
z lines   Borders between saccomeres  
🗑
Smooth Muscle   Autonomic, Non-striated, single nucleus, Calcium binds to Calmodulin  
🗑
Multi Unit smooth muscle   Individual cells that must each be stimulated  
🗑
Single unit smooth Muscle   gap junctions between cells, one action potential contracts all cells  
🗑
Cardiac Muscle   Striated, sarcomeres, involuntary, Autonomic  
🗑
Intercollated Discs   Thick fingerlike projections where gap junctions are lovated at the ends of the sarcolemma  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
