Question
Answer
muscle types   show
🗑
show word comes from Mus, meaning little mouse, makes up nearly half of the body's mass; the machines of the body  
🗑
elongated   show
🗑
show the elongated fibers of smooth and skeletal muscle  
🗑
show equivalent of the microfilaments of the cytoskeleton  
🗑
show equivalent of the cytoplasm of the cell; the interior of the muscle cell; sarco=flesh  
🗑
myo- and mys-   show
🗑
skeletal muscle fibers   show
🗑
striated muscle   show
🗑
voluntary muscle   show
🗑
skeletal muscle tissue   show
🗑
show connective tissue sheath enclosing the muscle fiber  
🗑
perimysium   show
🗑
show bundle of fibers  
🗑
show overcoat of connective tissue binding fascicles bundles  
🗑
tendons   show
🗑
aponeuroses   show
🗑
smooth muscle   show
🗑
smooth muscle cell   show
🗑
cardiac muscle   show
🗑
show junctions of muscle fibers  
🗑
skeletal muscle   show
🗑
ATP   show
🗑
sarcolemma   show
🗑
myofibrils   show
🗑
light and dark bands   show
🗑
sarcomeres   show
🗑
myofilaments   show
🗑
show Z is the darker area, H is a lighter central area, H contains tiny protein rods that hold the thick filaments together  
🗑
show myosin filament, made mostly of bundled molecules of the protein myosin; contain ATPase enzymes, generating power for muscle contraction  
🗑
show bundled molecules of protein  
🗑
cross bridges   show
🗑
show composed of contractile protein actin and regulatory proteins; AKA actin filaments, overlap thick filaments  
🗑
actin filaments   show
🗑
show the lighter color zones of the thick and thin filaments  
🗑
skeletal muscle cell striations   show
🗑
show muscle fiber organelle, specialized smooth endoplasmic reticulum, stores clacium and releases calcium ions into cytoplasm on demand when muscle fiber is stiumlated to contract  
🗑
function of muscle cells   show
🗑
motor unit   show
🗑
show long threadlike extension of the neuron; forming junctions with the sarcolemma of a different muscle cell  
🗑
show the joining of nerve and muscle cells  
🗑
synaptic cleft   show
🗑
neurotransmitter   show
🗑
acetylcholine (ACh)   show
🗑
show sarcolemma becomes permeable to sodium ions (Na+) and potassium ions (K+), leaving excess of positive ions, allowing Na+ entry; the upset of the electrical current; contraction of the muscle cell; takes just a few thousandths of a second for this process  
🗑
muscle cell   show
🗑
graded responses   show
🗑
show single, brief, jerky contractions (not normal)  
🗑
tetanic contraction (fused)(complete tetanus)   show
🗑
unfused (incomplete tetanus)   show
🗑
ATP regeneration   show
🗑
creatine phosphate (CP)   show
🗑
show supplies 95% of ATP for muscle activity; occurs in the mitrochondria and involves a series of metabolic pathways that use oxygen; requires continuous delivery of oxygen and nutrient fuels to keep it going  
🗑
show the pathways providing aerobic respiration  
🗑
glycoysis   show
🗑
show pyruvic acid generated during glycolysis, converted to help provide strength for working muscles  
🗑
show only 5% of ATP for muscle strength, 2 1/2 times faster; the end result of production of glycolysis and lactic acid  
🗑
show muscles used strenuously for a long period of time  
🗑
show oxygen levels drop, causing muscles to become fatigued; ionic imbalance  
🗑
tension   show
🗑
show myofilaments are successful in sliding movement, muscle shortens, movement occurs  
🗑
show myosin myofilaments are spinning their wheels, tension in the muscle keeps increasing; resistance training  
🗑
show the state of continuous partial contraction  
🗑
show soft and flabby  
🗑
atrophy   show
🗑
show less fatigue, caused when increased blood supply to the muscles, more oxygen is stored and more mitochondria cells are formed  
🗑
body movements   show
🗑
origin   show
🗑
insertion   show
🗑
show movement that decreases the angle of the joint and brings two bones closer toegther  
🗑
extension   show
🗑
show movement of a bone around its axis  
🗑
abduction   show
🗑
adduction   show
🗑
circumduction   show
🗑
show lifting up the foot so that top surface is closer to the shin  
🗑
show pointing the foot down so that top surface is farther away from the shin  
🗑
show turning the sole of the foot to the midline  
🗑
show turning the sole of the foot away from midline  
🗑
show lying on the back, face or front upward  
🗑
pronation (prone)   show
🗑
opposition   show
🗑
show the muscle that has most responsibility for movement  
🗑
antagonist   show
🗑
synergist   show
🗑
show hold something so that movement can be done with no opposition  
🗑
show straight  
🗑
oblique   show
🗑
maximus   show
🗑
minimus   show
🗑
longus   show
🗑
show two origins  
🗑
show three origins  
🗑
quadriceps   show
🗑
show has clavicle attachment site  
🗑
sterno   show
🗑
deltoid   show
🗑
extensor   show
🗑
adductor   show
🗑
flexor   show
🗑
show sqeezing muscles  
🗑
circular muscle   show
🗑
show fascicles converge towrd a single insertion tendon; triangular  
🗑
show fascicles run parallel to the long axis of the muscle; straplike  
🗑

🗑
pennate   show
🗑
show muscles attach to one side of the tendon  
🗑
bipennate   show
🗑
show fascicles insert into several sides of the tendon  
🗑
muscular dystrophy   show
🗑
Duchenne's muscular dystrophy   show
🗑
show affects muscles during adulthood; difficulty in swallowing and talking, general muscle weakness and fatigue; shortage of acetylcholine receptors; death due to respiratory failure  
🗑
