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
🗑
show Endomysium  
🗑
The connective tissue enveloping bundles of muscle fibers   show
🗑
the sheath of fibrous connective tissue surrounding muscle   show
🗑
A bundle of nerve or muscle fibers bound together by connective tissue   show
🗑
show smooth muscles  
🗑
show cardiac muscle  
🗑
show Sarcolemma  
🗑
the smallest contractile unit of muscle; extends from one A disc to the next   show
🗑
One of the principal contractile protiens found in muscle   show
🗑
A contractile protien   show
🗑
A specialized smooth endoplasmic reticulum   show
🗑
one neuron and all the skeletal muscle cell sit stimuates   show
🗑
show Contractility  
🗑
show excitability  
🗑
show extensibility  
🗑
show elasticity  
🗑
show epimysium  
🗑
Another connective tissue located outside the epimysium. It surrounds and separates muscles   show
🗑
A muscle is composed of numerous visible bundles called muscle fasciculi, which are surrounded by loose connective tissue   show
🗑
The fasciculi are composed of single muscle cells   show
🗑
A single cylindrical cell containing several nuclei   show
🗑
show endomysium  
🗑
show myofibrils  
🗑
Myofibrils consist of __ major kinds of protein fibers   show
🗑
show Actin myofliaments  
🗑
Thick myofilaments. They resemble bundles of minute golf clubs.   show
🗑
Actin and myosin myofilaments form highly ordered units _______ which are joined end to end to form the myofibril.   show
🗑
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.  
🗑
The sliding of actin myofilaments past myosin myofilaments during contraction   show
🗑
A contraction of n entire muscle in response to a stimulus that causes the action potential in one or more muscle fibers   show
🗑
A muscle fiber will not respond to stimulus until that stimulus reaches a level called ______, at which point the muscle fiber will contract maximally. This phenomenon is called the ______________   show
🗑
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
🗑
where the muscle remains contracted without relaxing   show
🗑
show recruitment  
🗑
show ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)  
🗑
show ATP  
🗑
Short-lived and unstable   show
🗑
It degenates to the more stable _______________________ plus phosphate   show
🗑
show Creatine phosphate  
🗑
show Anaerobic respiration  
🗑
with oxygen   show
🗑
results when ATP is used during muscle contraction faster than it van be produced in the muscle cells   show
🗑
The length of the muscle does not change, but the amount of tension increases during the contraction process.   show
🗑
show Isotionic (equal tension)  
🗑
show Muscle tone  
🗑
contract quickly and fatigue quickly. Well adapted to preform anaerobic metabolism. Ex. white meat of a chicken's breast.   show
🗑
show Slow-twitch fibers  
🗑
is the most stationary end of the muscle   show
🗑
is the end of the muscle undergoing the greatest movement   show
🗑
The portion of the muscle between the origin and the insertion is the   show
🗑
show Origins or heads  
🗑
Muscles that work together to accomplish specific movements are   show
🗑
show Antagonists  
🗑
show Prime mover  
🗑

🗑
Puckers the lips   show
🗑
show Buccinator  
🗑
show Orbicularis Oris and Buccinator  
🗑
show Zygomaticus  
🗑
sneering   show
🗑
Frowning   show
🗑
show Mastication  
🗑
show Intrinsic tongue muscles  
🗑
show Extrinsic Tongue muscles  
🗑
Lateral neck muscle and prime mover   show
🗑
Muscles that move the thorax   show
🗑
Group of muscles on each side of the neck   show
🗑
show 4 pairs  
🗑
