Skeletal muscle
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the function of the muscle system? | Being able to contract and relax, and as a result, they caused parts of the body to move |
| The muscle system provides what to the skeletal system | Movement |
| The muscle system provides blank of the blood through the heart in the blood vessels | Movement |
| Peristalsis | The smooth muscles help push the food through the digestive system |
| What are the only cells that are able to contract and relax? | Muscle cells |
| How much percent of a men’s body is muscle? | 60% |
| How much of a woman’s body is muscle? | 40% |
| Skeletal muscle tissue is found where | Along the bones of the body attached by tendons to the bones |
| Each muscle cell may be how long in length | 1.5 inches |
| What does multinucleated mean? | It means it has multiple nucleus |
| Myosin | Thick |
| Actin | Thin |
| The skeletal muscle tissue cells are what and contain large amounts of what | Striated Proteins figments |
| Your skeletal muscle cells are voluntary, which means. | You have to think about it and you can control it with your brain |
| What do the cells look like when they are stacked onto one another | Pipes |
| What is the function of the skeletal muscle tissue? | To pull on tendons attached to bones to produce skeleton movement |
| They all tend to work in pairs as once at a muscle tissues contracts, another relaxes | |
| What is the all or non-law? | The muscle cell (fiber)will contract completely or not at all. |
| How is skeletal muscle strength determined? | It’s determined by how many can contract at the same time? And by how many muscle cells are told to contract at a given time |
| Lactic acid | The skeletal muscle cells produce lactic acid. The lactic acid acts like glue, which makes it hard for your muscles to contract and relax. The bloodstream takes the lactic acid to the liver and the liver turns it eventually into glucose |
| The cardiac muscle tissue is only found where | It is found in the hearts and especially the ventricles |
| In the cardiac muscle, some of the larger cells are what | Multinucleated |
| Contracts and relaxes rhythmically | |
| The cardiac muscle system is striated but not as much as what | The skeletal muscle cells |
| Your cardiac muscle cells are involuntary, which means | You can’t control when it contracts and relaxes and doesn’t need to be consciously controlled |
| The disks are present where | Muscle cells intersect |
| A unique characteristic about the cardiac muscle cells are | Cells are able to contract and relax without being stimulated by a nerve borne impulse |
