Question
Answer
function of the skeletal muscles   movement of bones, maintain posture, support, guard enterances/ exits, body temp  
🗑
skeletal muscle   only type that is voluntary  
🗑
myofibril   fibers inside a muscle cell  
🗑
epimysium   outermost tissue of muscle cell  
🗑
perimysium   2nd layer of muscle cell; surrounds bundles of cells  
🗑
endomysium   surrounds muscle fiber  
🗑
components of a muscle cell   sarcoplasm, mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
sarcoplasmic reticulum   stores calcium ions and releases them when needed  
🗑
sarcolemma   cell membrane of a muscle cell  
🗑
myosin   thick protein filaments that form the dark lines of a fibril  
🗑
actin   thin protein filament; forms the light lines of the fibril (i bands)  
🗑
sacromere   contractile unit of the muscle  
🗑
z disc   the zigzags on a fibril, made of actin; make the boundries  
🗑
action potential   message from neuron; produced by ach; electrical upsetting travelling completely around the muscle cell  
🗑
neuromuscular junction   where the axon terminal meets the muscle cell  
🗑
ach (acetycholine)   tells muscles to contract; released by neuron with use of Ca+2 and goes to muscle cell  
🗑
creatine phosphate   gives extra energy when atp is low; gives its phosphate to a ADP to make it ATP and usable  
🗑
aerobic respiration   slow but most efficient; Glucose + O2 =ATP; converts food to energy  
🗑
anaerobic respiration   when you work hard enough so O2 is not getting to tissue; very fast but no efficient. no O2 needed.  
🗑
flexion   decreases the angle of the joint; brings two bones closer together  
🗑
extension   increases the angle of the joint; two bones farther from eachother  
🗑
hyperextention   bending beyond 180* angle  
🗑
abduction   take/ move away from body  
🗑
adduction   move closer to body  
🗑
circumduction   movement in a circular motion (ball and socket joints)  
🗑
supination   palms up  
🗑
pronation   palms down  
🗑
organs of the skeletal system   bones, joints, cartilages, ligaments  
🗑
two subdivisions of the skeleton   axial and appendicular  
🗑
ligaments   connect bone to bone  
🗑
functions of bones   support the body, protection, levers, store minerals, blood cell formation  
🗑
classification of bones   long bones, short bones, flat bones, irregular bones  
🗑
long bone   compact bone, dense, longer than wide  
🗑
short bone   cube shaped, mostly spongy  
🗑
flat bone   flattened, thin, usually curved  
🗑
irregular bone   bones that don't fit in any other catergory  
🗑
epiphyseal   growing plate or line; determines growth; plate = cartilage and line = bone  
🗑
diaphysis and epiphysis   d = mostly compact, e = spongy  
🗑
two types of marrow   red and yellow  
🗑
red marrow   hematopheisis (production of blood)  
🗑
yellow marrow   where fat is stored; found in diaphysis  
🗑
perferating canals   move horizontally through bone  
🗑
central canals   move vertically through bones  
🗑
osteons   run the length of the bone  
🗑
3 types of muscle cells   osteocytes, osteoblasts, osteoclasts  
🗑
osteocytes   mature muscle cells  
🗑
bone remodeling   controlled building and breaking of bone; happens when calcium levels are to high or low  
🗑
calcium   involved in muscle contraction, sending nerve impulses, blood clotting  
🗑
collagen   protein that gives bone a flexible quality  
🗑


   

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.
