Question
Answer
skeletal muscle tissue   striated, voluntary (ex. found in biceps)  
🗑
cardiac muscle tissue   striated, involuntary , only found in heart  
🗑
smooth muscle tissue   nonstriated (smooth) involuntary (ex. found in digestive system, arteries, intestine)  
🗑
functions of skeletal muscle   produce body movement, stabilize body position, storing and moving substances within the body (ATP), generating heat (thermogenesis=shiverring)  
🗑
properties of muscle tissue   electrical excitability, contractilily, extensibility, elasticity  
🗑
superficial fascia   aka subcutaneous layer, separates muscle from skin  
🗑
deep fascia   holds muscles with similar functions together  
🗑
3 layers of connective tissue   epimysium, perimysium, endomysium  
🗑
epimysium   surrounds whole muscle  
🗑
perimysium   surrounds muscle bundles  
🗑
endomysium   surrounds individual muscle fibers  
🗑
tendon   all 3 layers of connective tissue connect at each end of a muscle and form this  
🗑
NMJ   neuromuscular junction; where muscle fiber and nerve (neuron) connect and communicate  
🗑
sarcolema   plasma (cell) membrane of muscle fiber  
🗑
Transverse tubules (T tubules)   extend from sarcolemma into sarcoplasm  
🗑
sarcoplasm   the cytoplasm of skeletal muscle fiber  
🗑
myofibrils   cylindrical structures within each muscle fiber, contains bundles of thick and thin myofilaments  
🗑
sarcoplasmic reticulum   "sleeve covering myofibril"; network of membranous channels surrounding each myofibril  
🗑
terminal cisternae   surrounds T tubule- expanded ends of SR on either side of T tubule; 2 to a tubule  
🗑
filaments   short protein structures arranged into sarcomeres consisting of thin actin and thick myosin filaments  
🗑
