Q

Myosin

A

Thick and dark filament has spurs. Myosin heads (spurs) at the end of each filament engage with actin during a muscle contraction. Myosin stays stationary during contraction.

Q

H band

A

30
Q

M line

A

Dead center of sarcomere

31
Q

Z line

A

Length of one sarcomere Includes A band, H band, M line, and about half of an I band on each end

32
Q

Draw Sarcomere

33
Q

Motor end plate

A

Converts chemical signal into electrical signal

34
Q

Synapse

A

Space between terminal button and motor end plate.

35
Q

Terminal button aka synaptic terminal

A

Releases NTR into synapse

36
Q

T-tubule

A

Electrical signal enters muscle through T tube

37
Q

Cisterns

A

Contain large amounts of calcium. Electrical signal coming through t tubule stimulates cisterns to dump calcium.

38
Q

what is the trigger for muscle contraction.

A

Calcium is the signal for a myosin head to attach to actin.

39
Q

All or none principal

A

Only applies to skeletal muscle When the contact they contract completely or not at all. Heavy vs light object more or less cells contract.

40
Q

Muscular Dystrophy

A

Inherited, it is a abnormal dystrophin protein. This protein normally strengthens the sarcolemma. Sarcolemma tears in MD people.

41
Q

Myasthenia Gravis

A

Autoimmune disease that destroys the motor end plate.

42
Q

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ( Lou Garrick’s)

A

Destroys motor neurons

43
Q

Rigor Mortis

A

ATP required to hold calcium on cisterns

44
Q

Tonic muscle contraction

A

Remains contracted after stimulation is gone .

45
Q

Phasic muscle contraction

A

When a muscle contracts then relaxes

46
Q

isometric action

A

muscular contraction against resistance in which the length of the muscle remains the same.

47
Q

Isotonic action

A

muscular contraction against resistance in which the length of the muscle changes.

48
Q

Motor units

A

One nerve and all the muscle cells it controls

49
Q

Fine motor control

A

A nerve that controls one or a few muscle cells

50
Q

Coarse muscle control

A

A nerve contracts 100 or more muscle cells

51
Q

Number of origins

A

Biceps 2 Triceps 3 Quadriceps 4

52
Q

Axial muscles

A

Move head, neck, veterbral column, pelvic floor, axial trunk(abdomin) They do not move appendages.

53
Q

Galea Aponeurotica

A

Tendon sheet at the top of the head

54
Q

Abdominal aponeuroses

A

Tendon sheet that covers abdomin

55
Q

Linea alba

A

Tendon from xyphoid to pubis

56
Q

Appendicular muscles

A

Move appendages

57
Q

Rotator cuff muscles

A

Deltoid, Pectoralis major, infraspinatus, teres major, teres minor.

58
Q

IM injection sites

A

Deltoid for adult Gluteus minimus for kids Rectus femorus for self injections

59
Q

Lumbodorsal fascia

A

Tendon sheet for low back

60
Q

Arm compartments (anterior compartments)

A

The muscles that flex the arm

61
Q

Arm compartments (posterior)

A

The muscles that extend the arm (triceps)

62
Q

Illiotibial tract

A

Tendon sheet on lateral side of thigh

63
Q

Leg compartment (anterior)

A

Extending muscles

64
Q

Leg compartments (posterior)

A

Flexing muscles

A

Stance phase 60% Weight bearing leg Begins when heel strikes ground and ends when toe lifts. Swing phase 40% Non weight bearing leg Begins when toes lifts off ground. Ends when heel strikes ground.

68
Q

Smooth muscle

A

Wraps around tubes and vessels Controlled by ANS involuntary Longitudinal layer Contracts and tube will dilate Circular layer contracts tube will constrict
