Muscle flashcards

AB
What are the three types of musclesskeletal, smooth, and cardiac
What shape are skeletal musclescigar
What is the plasma membrane of the muscle cellSarcolemma
The muscle fibers are enclosed in...Endomysieum
Many muscle fibers make aFascicle
Fascicle is rapped in aPerimysieum
Many muscle cells bundle to make aA Fascicle
Around the muscle body wrapping all the fascicles together is theEpimysium
What attaches the epimysia to the bone?Tendons or Aponeuroses
Sheet-like tendons are calledAponeuroses
The working unit of the muscle is called theMyofibril
The myofibril gives the muscle fibers their...Striped or striated appearance.
Light bandsI-bands
Dark bandsA- bands
Between I-bandsZ-line
Between A-bandsH-zone
What kind of organell is the sarcoplsmic retituclum formed from?Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum that releases calcium
What are the bands made up of?Actin and Myosin
The I- band is made up of the thin filamentActin
The A-bands are made up of the thick fillaments...Myosin
What does the nerve send out?Acetylcholine
Motor unitAll muscles triggered by nerve
Sarcolema is permeable toNa+
What causes the action potentialNa+
What causes myosin to release and recock?ATP
Why do you get Rigamortis?No ATP to release Myosins hold on Actin.
What is muscular Dystrophy?Dengeneration of muscle do to a genetic problem with dystrophan
What types of muscular dystrophy are sex linked?Duschenes and Beckers
Which form of MD do boys get before 6?Duschenes
Which form of MD is not sex linked and effects the upper bodyFascioscapular humoral
SynergistGroup of muscles that work together
Prime MoverOne muscle that does most of the work
AnatgonistMuscles that work against each other.
All or none responseMuscle either reaches threshold stimulus and contracts or it does not contract at all. Their is no 1/2 contraction.
Lee the baker took the muffinsLigaments to bone tendons to muscle
Smooth MuscleNo striations, in sheets and layers, do not tire, no concious control, often in visceral organs.
Cardiac MuscleThe heart, striated, involutary, intercallated diskes, Figure 8 shaped bundles, does not tire.
Skeletal MuscleMutlinucleated on the outside of muscle, striated, cigar shaped, volutary unless used in a Reflex, need rest.
Muscle Functions are...movement, maintain posture, stabalize joints, and generate body heat
Myofibers or the MyofibrilMuscle cell
MyofillamentsActin-myosin-sarcomere organelles in the muscle cell (Myofibril) this enlarges or causes hypertrophy when you work out giving you...big muscles.
Refractory periodrecovery period of muscle or nerve
Surrounds the entire muscle and tendonFascia
abductiondrawing away from the median axis
adductiondrawing twords a median axis
extensionstretching out
pronationa rotation of the hand and radius around the ulna so that the palm is turned downward
supinationa rotation of the hand and radius around the ulna so that the palm is turned upward.
What is a muscleAn organ that can contract
What causes the striations in skeletal muscleActin and myosin fillaments
