Chapter 6 muscles

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show Contraction  
🗑
Muscle cells   show
🗑
Muscle composed of cylindrical multi nucleate cells with obvious striations; the muscle(s) attached to the body's skeleton; also called voluntary muscle   show
🗑
the thin connective tissue surrounding each muscle cell   show
🗑
The connective tissue enveloping bundles of muscle fibers   show
🗑
show Epimysium  
🗑
show Fascicle  
🗑
muscle consisting of spindle-shaped unstripped (non striated) muscle cells; involuntary muscle   show
🗑
specialized muscle of the heart   show
🗑
show Sarcolemma  
🗑
show Sarceamere  
🗑
show Myosin  
🗑
A contractile protien   show
🗑
A specialized smooth endoplasmic reticulum   show
🗑
one neuron and all the skeletal muscle cell sit stimuates   show
🗑
show Contractility  
🗑
The capacity of skeletal muscle to respond to a stimulus   show
🗑
The ability to be stretched   show
🗑
Ability to recoil to their original resting length after they have been stretched   show
🗑
show epimysium  
🗑
Another connective tissue located outside the epimysium. It surrounds and separates muscles   show
🗑
show Perimysium  
🗑
show fibers  
🗑
A single cylindrical cell containing several nuclei   show
🗑
show endomysium  
🗑
The cytoplasm of each fiber is filled with ________- a threadlike structure that extends from one end of the fiber to the other   show
🗑
Myofibrils consist of __ major kinds of protein fibers   show
🗑
show Actin myofliaments  
🗑
Thick myofilaments. They resemble bundles of minute golf clubs.   show
🗑
show sarcomeres  
🗑
The basic structural and functional unit of the muscle.   show
🗑
show Occurs as actin and myosin myofilaments slide past one another causing the sarcomeres to shorten. When the sarcomeres shorten it causes the muscle to shorten.  
🗑
show sliding filament mechanism  
🗑
A contraction of n entire muscle in response to a stimulus that causes the action potential in one or more muscle fibers   show
🗑
show Threshold; all-or-none response  
🗑
The time between application of a stimulus to a motor neuron and the beginning of a contraction   show
🗑
The time of contraction   show
🗑
The time during which the muscle relaxes   show
🗑
show tetany  
🗑
The increase in number of motor units being activated   show
🗑
show ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)  
🗑
show ATP  
🗑
show ATP  
🗑
It degenates to the more stable _______________________ plus phosphate   show
🗑
It is necessary for muscle cells to constantly produce ATP. When at rest they can't stockpile ATP but they can store another high-energy molecule called ______________________   show
🗑
show Anaerobic respiration  
🗑
show Aerobic respiration  
🗑
results when ATP is used during muscle contraction faster than it van be produced in the muscle cells   show
🗑
show Isometric (equal distance)  
🗑
The amount of tension produce by the muscle is constant during contraction, but the length of the muscle change   show
🗑
__________ refers to constant tension produced by muscle of the body for long periods of time. Keeps head up and back straight.   show
🗑
show Fast-twitch fibers  
🗑
show Slow-twitch fibers  
🗑
show Origin  
🗑
show Insertion  
🗑
The portion of the muscle between the origin and the insertion is the   show
🗑
some muscles have multiple _________________________   show
🗑
Muscles that work together to accomplish specific movements are   show
🗑
show Antagonists  
🗑
show Prime mover  
🗑
raises the eyebrows   show
🗑
show Orbicularis Oculi  
🗑

show Mastication  
🗑
show Intrinsic tongue muscles  
🗑
show Extrinsic Tongue muscles  
🗑
Lateral neck muscle and prime mover   show
🗑
show Thoracic Muscles  
🗑
Group of muscles on each side of the neck   show
🗑
show 4 pairs  
🗑
