AB
How many muscles make up system600
Cardiac muscle is whereforms walls of heart
Smooth muscle is wherefound in internal organs
Skeletal muscle is whereAttached to bone and causes body movement
Involuntary musclescardiac and smooth
voluntary musclesskeletal
straited with intercalated diskscardiac muscle
Striated without intercalated disksskeletal
not striatedsmooth
tendonsstrong touch connective tissue cords
fasciatough, sheet like membrane that covers and protects tissue
originwhen muscle attaches to bone, the end that does not move
insertionthe end that moves when muscles contract
bursasmall fluid filled sacs
where are bursalie between some tendons and the bones beneath them
bursa filled withsynovial fluid
function of bursamakes it easier for tendons to slide over a bone
threshold stimulusminimal level of stimulation required to cause a muscle fiber to contract
twitchquick, jerky response to stimulus
tetanicsustained and steady response, more than a twitch
isotonicmuscle shortens and the insertion end moves toward the point of origin
isometriccontraction of muscle does not produce movement
atrophydue to prolonged inactivity, muscle skrinks in mass
hypertrophyexercise may cause increase in muscle size
Orbicularis oculicauses wrinkling, blinking, squinting
orbicularis oris"kissing muscle"
2 muscles that help close jawmasseter/temporalis
styloglossusretracts and elevates tongue
sternocleidomastoidhead flexion
3 muscles of breathingexternal/internal intercostals and diaphragm
3 muscles of backtrapezius, rhomboids, latissimus dorsi
deltoidhelps with flexion and medial rotation of humerus
3 muscles of abdomenrectus abdominus, internal/external oblique
muscle of back of upper armtriceps brachii
muscle of the front of the upper armbiceps brachii
