Question
Answer
Functions of muscles are for   A.the heartbeat.B.muscle tone.C.distribution of heat.D.moving bones.  
🗑
The outermost layer of connective tissue surrounding a skeletal muscle is the   Epimysium.  
🗑
Myofibrils are composed primarily of   actin and myosin.  
🗑
The striated appearance of skeletal muscle results from the   sarcomere organization.  
🗑
Transverse tubules   transmit muscle impulses into the cell interior.  
🗑
The discoloration and swelling of a muscle strain is due to   ruptured blood vessels.  
🗑
A tendon is ______, whereas an aponeurosis is ______.   cordlike and connects muscles to bones; a broad, fibrous sheet of connective tissue that connects muscles to muscles  
🗑
Muscle fibers are basically a collection of   sarcomeres  
🗑
Transverse tubules and sarcoplasmic reticulum are well developed in fibers   skeletal muscle fibers  
🗑
The functional unit of muscle contraction is   the sacomere  
🗑
Neurotransmitters are stored in vesicles in   motor neuron endings  
🗑
The enzyme acetylecholinesterase causes acetylcholine to   decompose  
🗑
creatine phosphate   supplies energy for the synthesis of ATP.  
🗑
The amount of oxygen liver cells require to react lactic acid to produce glucose or the glycogen glycogen is the   oxygen dept  
🗑
Tawanda finishes a sprint and suffers great pain in her calf muscles. Her muscle cramps are most likely dueto a temporary deficit of   ATP  
🗑
Athletes usually experience muscle fatigue less quickly than nonathletes because they   .produce less lactic acid.  
🗑
At a neuromuscular junction the muscle fiber membrane folds forming a   motor end plate  
🗑
The toxin that causes botulism   prevents release of acetylcholine.  
🗑
Rigor mortis affects skeletal muscles a few hours after death due to   decreased ATP and increased permeability to calcium.  
🗑
At a neuromuscular junction   .neurotransmitters are released.  
🗑
The first event in muscle fiber contraction is that.   acetylcholine is released from the end of the motor neuron.  
🗑
Which of the following statements is correct?   Actin filaments slide along myosin filaments.  
🗑
The functional connection between a neuron and a skeletal muscle fiber is   synapse  
🗑
__________ degrades acetylcholine keeping it from accumulating in the synapse.   Acetylcholinesterase  
🗑
A shift in metabolism that breaks down pyruvic acid to lactic acid is called   anaerobic threshold.  
🗑
Oxygen debt in muscles may develop because of   the inability of respiratory and circulatory systems to supply enough oxygen to skeletal muscles when used strenuously for a minute or two.  
🗑
The relationship between ATP and creatine phosphate is that   creatine phosphate supplies energy to regenerate ATP from ADP and phosphate.  
🗑
A motor unit is   a motor neuron and the muscle fibers connected to it.  
🗑
during muscle contraction ATP supplies energy for   myofilament movement.  
🗑
Skeletal muscles help maintain body temperature in that   .the more active they are the more heat is released.  
🗑
Threshold stimulus is the   minimal amount of energy required to contract a muscle fiber  
🗑
A myogram is   a recording of the events of a twitch.  
🗑
An example of a partial but sustained contraction is   muscle tone  
🗑
Which of the following is not true   Red fibers have fewer mitochondria than white.  
🗑
in a recording of a muscle twitch the delay between the time a stimulus is applied and the time the muscleresponds is called the   latent period  
🗑
The very brief moment following stimulation when a muscle remains unresponsive to additional stimulationis called the   refractory period  
🗑
Smooth muscle lacks   transverse tubules and striations.  
🗑
Smooth muscle has ___________ and not troponin.   calmodulin  
🗑
Compared to skeletal muscle smooth muscle   contracts more slowly and relaxes more slowly.  
🗑
The type of muscle cell that lacks transverse tubules has a single nucleus and is under involuntary control is   smooth muscle  
🗑
Short muscle cells with centrally located nuclei are   smooth muscle fibers  
🗑
Both acetylcholine and norepinephrine can affect   smooth muscle contraction  
🗑
The structures that connect cardiac muscle cells are.   intercalated disc  
🗑
Cardiac muscle   A.contracts as a syncytium.B.excites itself. C.responds in an all-or-none manner D.is only in the heart.  
🗑
Bones and muscles function as mechanical devices called   levers  
🗑
The movable end of a muscle is its   insertion  
🗑
The muscle primarily responsible for an action is the   prime mover  
🗑
A muscle that assists a prime mover is a(n)   synergist  
🗑
The buccinator muscle is in the   cheek  
🗑
The muscle that adducts and flexes the arm is the   coracobrachialis.  
🗑
The linea alba is   a band of tough connective tissue to which abdominal wall muscles attach.  
🗑
The soleus is a muscle that forms part of the   calf  
🗑
Which of the following is not a muscle of mastication?   mandibular  
🗑
Which of the following is unique in that its insertion is to fascia and not bone?   palmaris longus.  
🗑
The triangle of auscultation commonly used to hear sounds of respiratory organs is located near the border of the   trapezius and latissimus dorsi.  
🗑
A gluteal gait in which a person walks with a waddling limp is usually caused by a disorder of the   gluteus medius and gluteus minimus.  
🗑
A sign of aging of the muscular system is   decreased supplies of myoglobin to muscles.  
🗑
Muscle atrophy that progresses with aging is caused by reduction in   A.ATP.B.myoglobin.C.the sizes of muscle fibers.D.creatine phosphate.  
🗑
People with myasthenia gravis lack   about two-thirds of the normal number of acetylcholine receptors  
🗑
Myasthenia gravis is   an autoimmune disorder  
🗑
Weightlifting in which a muscle exerts more than 75% of its maximum tension stimulates   muscle fibers developing new filaments of actin and myosin  
🗑
