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
