3.3 Muscle 1 Flashcards
what are the 5 developmental origins for skeletal muscle tissue?
- mesoderm
- myoblasts
- myotubes
- muscle fibers
- myofibrils
A _______ is an undifferentiated cell that can fuse into fibers and turn into a muscle cell
myoblast
muscle fiber
single muscle cell
what are the 2 types of muscle tissue
striated, smooth
where are 3 the types of striated muscle?
- skeletal (arm, back etc)
- visceral (tongue)
- cardiac (heart)
_____ is cytoplasm in muscle cells
sarcoplasm
_____ is the ER in muscle cells
sarcoplasmic reticulum
_____ is like the plasma membrane in a muscle cell
sarcolemma
what is the smallest contractile unit in the muscle cell? (Z to Z)
sarcomere
what are characteristics of skeletal muscle? (shape, nucleus, striations?)
- long, cylindrical individual cells
- multinucleated (nuclei at periphery)
- cross-striations
- voluntary (strong/quick/forceful contractions)
what are the Visceral striated muscles involved in?
speech, breathing, swallowing
where can you find visceral striated muscles? and what are they similar to morphologically?
- tongue, pharynx, lumbar diaphragm, upper esophagus
- ID to skeletal muscle
what are some characteristics of cardiac muscle?
- short/branched individual cells
- single nucleated cells that are centrally located
- cross-striations
- involuntary movements
- strong jxns
- intercalated disks
smooth muscle characteristics
- short/tapered cells
- single nucleated cells with GAP jxn connections
-NON striated
-involuntary weak/slow contractions by ions traveling through gaps - gut has 2-3 layers
The ___ band is dark and wide. it has all the myosin
A
The __ Band is light bc its made of actin
I
The ___ line is the dark line that dissects the I band. It is the connection/anchor of the actin
Z
myosin heads move along _______
actin filaments
