🗑
runs the entire length of the thick filament   A band  
🗑
type of contraction that lengthens a muscle   eccentric  
🗑
_ muscle pain   myalgia  
🗑
any rigid bar free to turn about a fixed point   lever  
🗑
_ fulcrum lies between the pull and the load; seesaw-like   1st class lever  
🗑
chewing   mastication  
🗑
white line in the midline of the abdominal muscles   linea alba  
🗑
makes up 55% of whole blood   plasma  
🗑
contains granules that stain orange and nucleus has two lobes   eosinophil  
🗑
formation of platelets   thrombopoiesis  
🗑
blood clotting   coagulation  
🗑
valve between the right ventricle and aorta   aortic  
🗑
represents depolarization of the atria   P wave  
🗑
slow heart rhythm   bradycardia  
🗑
high blood pressure   hypertension  
🗑
causes blood to pass through two consecutive capillary beds rather than one   portal system  
🗑
vasodilator   nitric oxide  
🗑
_alternate expansion and recoil of an artery   pulse  
🗑
stroke   erythropoiesis  
🗑
The bundle of collagen fibers at the end of a skeletal muscle that attaches the muscle to bone is called a   tendon.  
🗑
The action potential is conducted into a skeletal muscle fiber by   transverse tubules.  
🗑
Active sites on the actin become available for binding after calcium binds to   troponin.  
🗑
Calcium ion is not released from the   transverse tubule.  
🗑
Perpendicular is not one of the forms of   fascicle organization found in muscles.  
🗑
Muscles located entirely within the part it moves are called   intrinsic.  
🗑
The most common lever systems in the body are   those that have the applied force between the fulcrum and the load. These are called third-class levers.  
🗑
Tendon attachment that moves most aptly describes   "muscle insertion".  
🗑
A plasma protein essential for blood coagulation is   fibrinogen  
🗑
Antigens of the surface of red blood cells are also called agglutinogens and antibodies in the blood plasma are also called   agglutinins.  
🗑
Platelets are pinched off from giant multinucleated cells in the bone marrow called   megakaryocytes.  
🗑
A moving blood clot is called   an embolus.  
🗑
The coronary arteries deliver blood to the   myocardium.  
🗑
An increase in the rate of action potentials from baroreceptors will trigger a reflex to both   decrease heart rate and decrease pressure.  
🗑
The volume of blood ejected from each ventricle during a contraction is called   the stroke volume.  
🗑
The atrioventricular valves permit blood flow   in one direction only.  
🗑
Capillaries that have a complete lining are called   continuous capillaries.  
🗑
After blood leaves the capillaries, it enters   the venules.  
🗑
Exchange between a blood vessel and the cells that surround it can occur only   in capillaries.  
🗑
Blood moves forward through veins because of   muscular compression, valves in the veins preventing the backward flow of blood, the pressure in the veins is lower than in the arteries, and the respiratory pump.  
🗑
What are the THREE general functions of skeletal muscle?   Movement, heat production, posture.  
🗑
What are the THREE proteins that make up the thin filaments in muscle cells?   Actin, troponin, tropomyosin.  
🗑
What protein makes up the thick filament in muscle cells?   myosin  
🗑
What are the FOUR different types of muscle contractions?   Twitch, treppe, complete tetanus, incomplete tetanus.  
🗑
Define myopathy.   Muscle disorder that disrupts normal movement  
🗑
Define origin and insertion   origin: point of attachment that does not move. insertion: point of attachment that moves  
🗑
What are the FOUR different muscle actions?   Prime mover (agonist, antagonist, synergist, fixator  
🗑
List the TWO divisions of the muscular system and what each controls.   Axial: position head and spinal column; moves rib cage. appendicular: support pectoral and pelvic girdles and limbs  
🗑
Define tonicity in regards to muscles.   Tension; continuous, low level of sustained contraction.  
🗑
List ONE effect of poor posture.   Muscles work harder and fatique easier; strains ligaments and bones; interferes with other functions (respiration, digestion)  
🗑
Describe the structure of hemoglobin.   4 globin molecules with a heme group (that contains iron) in the center of each.  
🗑
What formed element is shaped like a biconcave disk and has no nucleus or organelles?   RBCs  
🗑
What occurs when a person with type A blood is given type O blood from a donor?   Nothing; transfusion is successful.  
🗑
What occurs when a person with type B blood is given type AB blood from a donor?   Transfusion reaction  
🗑
What occurs when a person with type AB blood is given type B blood from a donor?   Nothing; transfusion is successful  
🗑
What are the TWO ways in which a person can develop Rh antibodies?   Rh- mother carries Rh+ baby. Rh- person transfused with Rh+ blood  
🗑
What is ONE condition that opposes clotting?   Smooth endothelium, antithrombins, heparin, coumarin compounds  
🗑
What is ONE condition that hastens clotting?   Rough spot in endothelium, slow blood flow  
🗑
Define fibrinolysis.   Clot dissolution  
🗑
What are the FOUR structures that make up the conduction system of the heart?   Sinoatrial (SA) node, atrioventricular (AV) node, AV bundle (bundle of His), subendocardial branches (purkinje fibers)  
🗑
What causes the two heart sounds?   1st: contraction of the ventricles, 2nd: vibrations of SL valves closing  
🗑
List the TWO factors that influence arterial volume and pressure.   Cardiac output (CO), peripheral resistance  
🗑
How is cardiac output calculated?   Stroke volume x heart rate  
🗑
What are the THREE different types of arteries?   Elastic arteries, muscular arteries,arterioles.  
🗑
What are the THREE structural layers of blood vessels?   Tunica externa, tunica media, tunica intima.  
🗑
Define peripheral resistance.   Resistance to blood flow by the force of friction between blood and the walls of its vessels.  
🗑
Describe how the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) mechanism affects blood volume   .ADH increases the amount of water the kidneys resorb from urine before it is excreted so blood volume increases.  
🗑
What is “normal” healthy blood pressure?   120/80  
🗑


   

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.
