4 Characteristics of Muscle Tissue 1.Excitability 2. Contractility 3.Extensibility 4.Elasticity
Tendon attach muscle to bone, bundles
Aponeurosis attach muscle to bone, flat sheet
Muscles require an AP to contract (T/F) T
Actin is part of a thick filament (T/F) F
ATP attaches to myosin during the contraction process t/f T
When an AP occurs it cz sodium channels to open on the surface of a muscle t/f T
During contraction, actin and myosin fibers shorten t/f F
AcH is a chemical which cz muscles to produce an AP T
The muscles of the face do not move bones t/f F
The SCM can turn your head t/f T
The Orbicularis Oculi opens the eye t/f F
The quadriceps femoris affects 4 bones t/f F
The Biceps Brachii is the only muscle that flexes the forearm t/f F
The quadriceps femoris extends the leg at the knee t/f T
The Biceps Femoris, Semitendinosous, and Semimembranosous muscles are known as the Hamstrings t/f T
The Gastrocnemius has the longest tendon in the body t/f T **** but need to double check, most sources say Plantaris
Frontalis muscle cz wrinkles on the forehead t/f T
The diaphragm does not move bones t/f T
the deltoid is a shoulder muscle which moves the humerus t/f T
most facial muscles move bones of the face t/f F
Flexion cz the angle btwn 2 bones to dcrease t/f T
Abduction brings an arm or leg closer to midline t/f F
Frontalis muscle is on forehead and when it contracts is cz forehead to wrinkle t/f T
In order to produce movement at a joint muscles have to work in antagonistic pairs t/f T
The hamstrings are made of 3 muscles on post. thigh, a help bend leg at knee t/f T
the rectus femoris is found on the back of the thigh t/f F
An isotonic contraction cz one or more bones to move t/f T
when you kiss someone the orbicularis oris is contracting t/f T
flexing your leg at the hip requires the quadriceps femoris to contract t/f F
muscles have the ability to stretch while contracting, this is extensibility t/f T
cardiac muscle is found only in the heart t/f T
the zygomaticus muscle helps you smile t/f T
An antagonist works with the prime mover muscle t/f F
The levator palpebrae superioris closes the eye t/f F
the Latissimus dorsi is often referred to a the swimmers muscle t/f T
skeletal muscle is striated and voluntary t/f T
Your platysma is on your chin / neck and helps you pout t/f T
Flexion (Def) Decrease angle btwn 2 bones
Extension (Def) Increase angle btwn 2 bones
abduction (Def) away from midline
adduction (def) toward midline
Neurons stimulate muscle contraction by releasing what substance to cz and action potential? AcH
