types of muscle | skeletal, smooth, cardiac |
Muscle fibers | muscle cells |
skeletal muscle | attach to skeleton |
striated muscle | skeletal muscle |
endomysium | surrounds each muscle fiber |
perimysium | covers fascicle |
fascicle | many fibers bundled together |
epimysium | covers entire muscle |
tendons | attach muscles to bone |
smooth muscle | no striations, involuntary |
cardiac muscle | found only in the heart |
sarcolemma | many oval nuclei beneath the plasma membrane |
myofibrils | ribbon like organells |
I bands | actin, light band |
A band | myosin, dark band |
sarcomeres | chains of tiny contractile units |
myofilaments | threadlike protein |
thick filaments | myosin |
cross bridges | link thick and thin myofilaments together |
thin filaments | actin |
sarcoplasmic reticulum | smooth endoplasmic reticulum |
motor unit | one neuron and all the muscle cells it stimulates |
axon | nerve fiber |
neuromuscular junction | junction with the sarcolemma |
when a muscle is unable to contract even though it is still being stimulated. | muscle fatigue |
state of continuous partial contractions | muscle tone |
flaccid | soft and flabby |
flexion | angle of joint decreases |
extension | angle of joint increases |
rotation | movement around longitudinal axis |
abduction | moving limb away from body |

fascicles are arranged in concentric rings | circular |
fascicles converge toward a single insertion tendon | convergent |
neck muscles | move head and shoulder girdle |
trunk muscles | move vertebral column, ribs, head, arms, abdominal body wall. |
