---|---|---|---|---|---|
Tetanus | a state where muscle fibers are continually stimulated, creating sustained muscle contraction
🗑
|
||||
Skeletal muscle | muscles attached to bones that aid in locomotion
🗑
|
||||
Smooth muscle | muscle that lines organs such as the stomach and intestines
🗑
|
||||
Cardiac muscle | specialized striated muscle that can create its own rhythmic depolarization without nervous system input
🗑
|
||||
Myofibrils | a bundle of skeletal muscle, consisting of thick and thin filaments
🗑
|
||||
Thin filaments | strands of fibers made of actin protein
🗑
|
||||
Thick filaments | strands of fibers made of myosin protein
🗑
|
||||
Sarcomere | the basic contractile unit of skeletal muscle. Contains sliding filaments of actin and myosin, which give skeletal muscle its striated appearance
🗑
|
||||
Ca+2 | ion that plays an important role is skeletal muscle contraction
🗑
|
||||
Increased Ca+2 levels | exposes myosin binding sites of the sarcromere, allowing filaments to slide and the muscle to contract.
🗑
|
||||
Decreasing Ca+2 levels | cover the myosin binding sites of the sarcomere, stopping muscle contraction
🗑
|
||||
Motor unit | single motor neuron + the muscle fibers it innervates (controls)
🗑
|
||||
Cranium | main bone in the skull
🗑
|
||||
Scapula | shoulder blade
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
Humerus | upper arm bone
🗑
|
||||
Ulna | lower arm bone. When shaking hands it’s on the bottom
🗑
|
||||
Radius | lower arm bone. When shaking hands it’s on the top
🗑
|
||||
Carpals | wrist bones
🗑
|
||||
Metacarpals | hand bones (not including fingers)
🗑
|
||||
Phalanges | finger and toe bones
🗑
|
||||
Femur | strongest bone in the body, located in the upper leg
🗑
|
||||
Patella | knee cap
🗑
|
||||
Tibia | shin bone, in lower leg
🗑
|
||||
Fibula | smaller bone in lower leg
🗑
|
||||
Tarsals | ankle bones
🗑
|
||||
Metatarsals | foot bones (not including toes)
🗑
|
||||
Ball an Socket Joint | type of joint in shoulder and hip
🗑
|
||||
Hinge Joint | type of joint in elbow between the humerus and ulna. Only moves one way
🗑
|
||||
Pivot Joint | joint between the radius and ulna, and also in between the skull and top vertebrae. It allows turning
🗑

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.
