Muscular System
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Muscular System includes | the skeletal muscles and accessory structures. |
| Musculare system provides | mobility, movement, and it produces heat. |
| The muscular system includes the skeletal muscles not the | cardiac or smooth muscle. |
| Each muscular structure is made up of thousands of individual | muscle cell. |
| Muscle cell also known as | fibers. |
| Myofibrils are fibers of the muscle cell that are bound together within the cell membrane and a layer called | endomysium. |
| fibers are bundled into | fascicles. |
| Fascicles are surrounded by | perimysium. |
| Fascicles are bundled into the muscle surrounded by | the epimysium and the deep fascia. |
| Muscles are specialized for | contraction. |
| Fibers _______ to produce movement. | shorten. |
| Tendons | anchor muscle to bone and other muscles |
| Tendons are made of | dense fiborous connective tissue. |
| Deep fascia is what covers the muscle. | |
| Tendon merges with the | periosteum to anchor to the bone. |
| What are the two muscle fiber anatomy? | Sacrolemma and Sacroplasm. |
| Sacrolemma | is a special name for the cell membrane of a muscle cell. |
| Sacroplasm | is a special name for the cytoplasm of th emuscle cell. |
| Sacroplasm is filled iwth myofibrils and it stores | glycogen (engergy) and oxygen (breakdown). |
| Sacroplasm contains sacromeres, the contractile units in the muscle fiber and it is bundles into groups called | myofilaments. |
| Myofilaments are made of | actin and myosin. |
| There are 6 parts of the anatony of a sacromere. | Z-line, Actin, Myosin, Titin, and Troponin & Tropomyosin. |
| Z-line also known as | Z disc. |
| Z-disc is a protein backbone that anchors | actin filaments. |
| Z-disc forms the end boundaries of the | sacromeres. |
| Actin also known as | thin filaments. |
| Actin thin contractile protein that interacts with | myosin. |
| Myosin also known as | thick filaments. |
| Myosin has thicker contractile | proteins. |
| Titin | proteins that anchors myosin to the Z-line. |
| Actin forms a _____________ with myosin which shortens the sacromere. | crossbridge. |
| Troponin & Tropomyosin | inhibits proteins that prevent contraction when relaxed. |
| Troponin & Tropomyosin is attach to actin and blocks __________ from forming a cross bridge. | Myosin. |
| Neuromuscular Junction | is a motor nerve ending at each muscle fiber. And it is one per fiber. |
| Axon Termina also known as | Motor End Plate |
| Motor End Plate also known as | Synaptic Knob. |
| Axon Termina has an elarge end of the motor neuron | and it contains sacs of the neurotransmitter Acetycholine (ACh) |
| Synapse also known as | synaptic cleft. |
| Synapse is the junction between the ____________ and the ___________ _____________. | axon terminal and muscle fiber sarcolemma. |
| Acetycholine is release across the synapse is called | exocytosis. |
| Sarcolemma | is the cell membrane of the muscle fiber. |
| Abbreviation for Acetycholine | ACh |
| ACh attached ot the _____________ in the sacrolemma. | receptors. |
| ACh causes ______________ impulses in the sacrolemma | electrical. |
| Electrical signals travels through the | sarcolemma. |
| Cholinesterase _______________ ACh. | deactivates. |
| T-tubules | tubes that allow signals to travel into the cell. |
| Sacroplasmic reticulum | ER of the muscle cell and stores Calcium ions. |
| Contraction | Calcium is released from the sacroplasmic reticulum binds to troponin and tropomyosin and actin is exposed. |
| Contraction causes actin filaments to pull against mysoin filaments called the | sliding filament mechanism. |
| In contraction the brain recruits higher numbers of _________ based on need. | fibers. |
| Parts of the muscle function are | Origin, Belly, Insertion, Action, and Heads. |
| Origin is where the muscles originate and usually the more _____________ of the two ends. | stationary. |
| Belly | is the thick middle part of the muscle. |
| Insertion | is the opposite of the origin. And is across at least one joint from the origin. |
| Insertion moves toward the origin and shortens the muscle, this determines | Action. |
| Heads | some muscles have more that one belly that we call heads. |
| There are 5 muscle relationships which are | Action, Prime mover, Antagonist, Synergist, and Thermogenisis. |
| Action also known as function, makes the movement of a muscle that | contracts. |
| Prime Mover (Biceps) also known as | Protagonist. |
| Prime mover is the primary muscle that brings about the | desired movement. |
| Antagonist (Tricep) | is the muscle that does the opposite of the prime mover. |
| Synergist (Brachialis Radius) | is the secondary muscles that bring about the desired movement and it assist the prime mover. |
| Relative Terms | A muscle can be a prime mover for one action, but it can be the anatagonist for the opposite action. |
| Thermgenesis | is a heat production from normal muscle metabolism, due to checmical reaction and friction. |
| Thermgenesis increases with | increased activity. |
