Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

three types of muscle   Smooth, Cardiac and Skeletal  
🗑
skeletal muscle   voluntary attached to bones, skin of face  
🗑
cardiac muscle   walls of the heart involuntary  
🗑
smooth muscle   found in walls of internal organs such as those of digestive tract involuntary  
🗑
skeletal muscle 2   composed of skeletal muscle tissue nervous tissue blood and connective tissue  
🗑
connective tissue coverings   fascia, tendons, aponeuroses  
🗑
Aponeuroses   broad sheet in skull connecting muscle to muscle also in stomach  
🗑
Muscle coverings   Epimysium perimysium and endomysium  
🗑
Epimysium   surrounds whole muscle  
🗑
perimysium   surrounds fascicles within a muscle  
🗑
endomysium   surrounds muscle fibers cells with a fascicle  
🗑
fiber muscle cell   mutinucleated sarcolmma sarcoplasm many myofibrils myofibrils consist of thin actin and thick myosin sarcomeres sarcoplasmic reticulum transverse t tubule triad and SR cisternae  
🗑
sarcomeres   contain i band, a band, h zone, z line or z disc, m line  
🗑
I band   light band composed of the thin actin filamets  
🗑
A band   dark band composed of thick myosin filaments  
🗑
z line   anchors filaments in place  
🗑
h zone   center of a band compose of thick myosin filaments  
🗑
M line   anchors thick filaments center of A band  
🗑
Thick filaments   composed of myosin protein heads form cross bridges  
🗑
thin filaments   composed of actin protein associated with troponin and tropomyosin which prevent cross bridge formation when muscle is not contracting  
🗑
neuromuscular junction   a type of synapse also called a myoneural junction site where an axon of motor neuror and skeletal muscle fiber interact  
🗑
Acetylcholine ach   is the neurotransmitter nerve impulse causes release of ach from synaptic vesicles  
🗑
Myasthenia gravis   is an auto immune disorder antibiotics attack acetylcholine receptors on skeletal muscle fibers  
🗑
Excitation contraction coupling   connection between muscle fiber stimulation and muscle contraction  
🗑
ATP   helps muscles relax  
🗑
Mystin head   helps build muscle up for contraction  
🗑
Acetylcholiesterase   enzyme rapidly decomposed ach remaining in the synapse muscle impulse stop when ach is decompsed  
🗑
calcium pump   moves ca+2 back into sacoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Troponin tropomyosin complex   again covers binding sites on actin  
🗑
Energy sources for contracting   ATP reserves small amount, creatine phospate initial source of energy to regenerate ATP from ADP and P, cellular respiration  
🗑
Cellular respiration   anaerobic phrase: glycolysis occurs in cytoplasm produces little ATP Aerobic phrase: citric acid cycle and electron transport system occurs i nthe mitochondria produces ATP myoglobin stores extra oxygen in muscles  
🗑
anaerobic threshold   shift in metabolism from aerobic to anaerobic during strenuous muscle activity  
🗑
oxygen debt   amount of oxygen needed by liver cells to convert the accumulated lactic acid to glucose and to restore muscle ATP  
🗑
Muscle fatigue   unable to contract muscle  
🗑
muscle cramp   sustained involuntary muscle contraction may be cause by changes in electrolyte concentration in extracellular fluids in the area  
🗑
Heat production   by product of cellular respiration in active cells muscle cells are major source of body heat  
🗑
muscular response   muscle contraction can be observed by removing a single skeletal muscle fiber and connecting it to a device that senses and records changes in the overall length of the muscle fiber  
🗑
threshold stimulus   minimum strength of stimulation of a muscle fiber required to caused contraction  
🗑
Twitch   contractile response of a single muscle fiber to a single impulse  
🗑
summation   process by which the force of individual muscle fiber twitches combine  
🗑
motor unit   a motor neuron all of the muscle fibers it controls  
🗑
Recruitment   increase in the number of motor units activated to produce more force  
🗑
Isotonic   muscle contracts and changes length equal force  
🗑
Isometric   muscle contracts but does not change length change in force  
🗑
Slow twitch fiber   always oxidative resistant to fatigue  
🗑
fast twitch fatigue   intermediate twitch fibers  
🗑
fast twitch glycolytic fibers   anaerobic respiration white fibers poorer blood supply  
🗑
Hypertrophy   enlargement of skeletal muscle that is exercised  
🗑
Atrophy   decrease in size and strength of skeletal muscle that is unused  
🗑
Smooth muscle   shorter single centrally located nucleus elongated with tapering ends  
🗑
Multi unit smooth muscle   cells are less organized  
🗑
visceral smooth muscle   single unit smooth muscle cells respond as a unit  
🗑
Different from skeletal muscle contraction in these ways   smooth muscle lacks troponin uses calmodulin instead  
🗑
Cardiac muscle   striated muscle cells muscle fibers joined together by intercalated disks  
🗑
Skeletal muscle actions   generate a great variety of body movements  
🗑
4 basic component of levers   rigid bar or rod bones, fulcrum or pivot on which bar moves, object moved against resistance and force that supplies energy for movement  
🗑
Origin   less movable end  
🗑
insertion   more moveable end when muscle contracts insertion is pulled toward origin  
🗑
Agonist   muscle that causes an action  
🗑
prime mover   agonist primarily responsible for movement in some cases the terms agonist and prime mover are used interchargebly  
🗑
synergists   muscle that assist agonist/prime mover  
🗑
antagonist   muscles whose contraction causes movement in the opposite direction of the prime mover  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
