Question | Answer |
three types of muscle | skeletalsmoothcardiac |
skeletal muscle | generally attached to bonecontrolled by choice (voluntary muscle) |
skeletal muscle | looks striped or striated |
skeletal muscle | produce movementmaintain body posturestabilize jointshelps maintain body temperature |
smooth muscle | generally found the walls of viscera, such as stomach |
visceral muscle | smooth muscle found in the organs |
smooth muscle | also found in tubes and passageways |
smooth muscle | functions automatically also called involuntary muscle |
nonstriated muscle | no strips, contractions of smooth muscle enables the viscera to perform their functions |
cardiac muscle | found only in the heart, where it functions to pump blood throughtout the body |
intercalated discs | cardiac muscle cells are long branching cells that fit together tightly at junctions |
cardiac muscle | classified as striated and involuntary muscle |
belly | refers to the enlarged fleshy body of the muscle between the slender points of attachment |
fascia | large skeletal muscle is surrounded by layers of tough connective tissue |
epimysium | outer layer of fascia |
tendon | fascia extends toward and attaches to the bone as tendon, a strong cordlike structure |
perimysium | another layer of connective tissue, surrounds smaller bundles of muscle fibers |
fascicles | bundles of muscle fibers |
endomysium | third layer of connective tissue that surround the fascicles |
crush syndrome | compartment syndrome, crush injury, muscle is damaged becomes inflamed; leaches fluid into the compartment; pressure increase and compresses nerves and blood vessels;deprived of oxygen and nourishement; muscles and nerves begin to die |
aponeurosis | muscle attaches to other structures in three ways; first the tendon attaches the muscle to the bone; second muscles attach directly without tendon; to a bone or soft tissue; |
third a flat sheetlike fascia called aponeurosis connects muscle to muscle or muscle to bone |
