🗑
The rectus abdominis is a _____________muscle   PARALLEL  
🗑
The rectus femoris is a ______________muscle   BIPENNATE  
🗑
What is the distal attachment of all three heads of the triceps brachii   OLECRANON  
🗑
What is the longest muscle in the human body   SARTORIS  
🗑
Which term refers to a muscle that prevents a bone from moving during an action   FIXATOR  
🗑
The muscle primarily responsible for a movement is t he   PRIME MOVER (agonist)  
🗑
If a skeletal muscle contracts with FULL FORCE (maximum stumulus) it will _____________force if a greater stimulus is applied   NOT CONTRACT WITH MORE  
🗑
Which of the following is not a function of the muscular system   SECRETION  
🗑
The skeletal muscles are innervated by   SPINAL NERVES AND CRANIAL NERVES  
🗑
What muscles are in the medial compartment of the thigh   GRACILIS, ADDUCTOR LONGUS, ADDUCTIOR BREVIS, PECTINEUS, ADDUCTOR MAGNUS, & OBTURATOR EXTERNUS  
🗑
Muscles that dorsiflex the foot are found in which compartment of the leg   ANTERIOR  
🗑
Muscle fibers are arranged in bundles called   FASCICLES  
🗑
An isometric contraction does not change muscle length TRUE OR FALSE   TRUE  
🗑
Cross bridges form between binding sites on actin myofilaments   MYOSIN HEADS  
🗑
In order for muscle to continue contracting during anaerobic fermentation, what is ESSENTIAL????   MYOKINASE  
🗑
Resistance exercise will most likely cause muscle to   HYPERTROPHY  
🗑
Membranous channel extending inward from muscle fiber membrane   TRANSVERSE TUBULE  
🗑
Cytoplasm of a muscle fiber   SARCOPLASM  
🗑
Connective tissue located between adjacent muscles   FASCIA  
🗑
Layer of connective tissue that separates a muscle into small bundles called fascicles   PERIMYSIUM  
🗑
Plasma membrane of a muscle fiber   SARCOLEMMA  
🗑
Layer of connective tissue that surrounds a skeletal muscle   EPIMYSIUM  
🗑
Which muscle can contract without the need for nervous stimulation   SMOOTH & CARDIAC MUSCLE  
🗑
Skeletal muscle are attached to bones in a way that aligns proteins in an overly stretched (lengthened) position. This lengthening facilitates the shortening of contractions. T OR F   FALSE  
🗑
The absence or inhibition of acetylcholinesterase at a synapse would lead to   TETANUS  
🗑
Best describes the resting membrane potential (RMP)   The intracellular enviroment is negatively charged  
🗑
Skeletal muscle is called_________, because it is usually subject to conscious control   VOLUNTARY  
🗑
All muscle types will respond to an electrical stimulus because all muscle cells are   EXCITABLE  
🗑
Cardiac muscle has very little capacity for regeneration because it lacks   SATELLITE CELLS  
🗑
Drugs called calcium channel blcokers may be used to lower blood pressure by causing arteries to vasodilate....HOW?   They prevent calcium from entering smooth muscle thus allowing the muscle to relax  
🗑
How many somatic motor neurons stimulate one muscle fiber   ONE  
🗑
Why does one continue to breathe heavy after rigorous physical activity has stopped?   The body requires more oxygen to restore levels of ATP and creatine phosphate  
🗑
To stimulate muscle contraction, acetycholine is released from the ******** into the synaptic cleft????   SYNAPTIC VESICLES  
🗑
Some smooth muscle is autorhythmic **** TRUE OR FALSE?   TRUE  
🗑
Shortening a muscle while it maintains constant tension is called   ISOTONIC CONTRACTION  
🗑
As you are lifting a box, someone places extra weight on top of it...for your muscles to continue contracting and lifting the box a muscle must....   recruit more muscle fibers  
🗑
A motor unit is best defined as a   Motor neuron plus all of the muscle fibers that it innervates  
🗑
What is released when a myosin heads attach to actin filaments   PHOSPHATES  
🗑
the protein that acts as a calcium receptor in skeletal muscle is   TROPONIN  
🗑
Athletes who train at high altitude increase their red blood count, which increases their oxygen supply during exercised. Increased oxygen supply results in........   Longer aerobic respiration  
🗑
Where would you expect to find numerous gap junctions in muscular tissue   INTERCALATED DISCS OF CARDIAC MUSCLE  
🗑
In skeletal muscle, the term that describes the alternating light and dark bands is   STRIATIONS  
🗑
When acetylcholinesterase outlasts the release of acetylcholine from the synaptic vesicles, the skeletal muscle   RELAXES  
🗑
The scarcoplasmic reticulum is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum of a muscle fiber .....TRUE OR FALSE   TRUE  
🗑
An action potential for a muscle cell is propagated along the   SARCOLEMMA  
🗑
a bundle of muscle fibers is known as a   FASCICLE  
🗑


   

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.
