Q

What is the space between two neurons where communication occurs?

A

synapse (between the axon of one neuron and the dendrite of another)

21
Q

Important cranial nerve that mediates sense of touch for face and control many muscles of chewing

A

(V) Trigeminal nerve

22
Q

What is a motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates?

A

Motor unit

23
Q

What makes up a motor unit (5 things)?

A

Dendrite, nucleus, axon, neuromuscular junction, muscle fiber

24
Q

How do we activate muscles after we develop a motor plan?

A

Through neural impulses

25
Q

The attachment point of muscle that has limited movement

A

Origin (more proximal)

26
Q

The attachment point that has more movement

A

Insertion (more distal)

27
Q

This attaches muscle to bone, muscle to cartilage, or muscle to muscle and is usually very strong

A

Tendon

28
Q

Responsible for movement
A. agonist
B. Antagonist
C. synergists/fixator

A

Agonist

29
Q

Perform movements opposite of the agonist
A. agonist
B. Antagonist
C. synergists/fixator

A

Antagonist

30
Q

Stabilize structure
A. agonist
B. Antagonist
C. synergists/fixator

A

Synergists/Fixator

31
Q

What are the three important muscl emovements?

A

Isometric, concentric, eccentric

32
Q

Muscle action where its point of attachment do not move relative to each other

A

Isometric (ex: flexing in the mirror)

33
Q

Muscle is active and its attachments are drawn closer together

A

Concentric (ex: bicep curl)

34
Q

Muscle is active and its attachments are drawn further apart

A

Eccentric

35
Q

Bending at a joint to bring surfaces/ends closer together

A

flexion

36
Q

bring surfaces/ends apart (straightening)

A

extension

37
Q

Complex process used to convert your inner thoughts into a chain of speech sounds

A

linguistic encoding/speech - this is generated through the activation of multiple muscle systems

38
Q

What are the systems (5) involved in speech?

A
  1. respiratory
  2. phonatory
  3. articulation
  4. resonance
  5. nervous
39
Q

What system is the “power” source for speech production?

A

respiratory system

40
Q

What system is involved in producing ‘voice’

A

phonation system

41
Q

What separates the upper and lower airways?

A

vocal folds

42
Q

What houses the vocal folds?

A

larynx

43
Q

What vibrates to produce voice?

A

vocal folds

44
Q

2 bands of muscle (thyroarytenoid muscle) that control the presence of phonation or not & lower airway protection

A

Vocal folds

45
Q

vocal folds up from the ________ first

A

bottom

46
Q

The system of structures involved in shaping the oral cavity for production of the sounds of speech

A

articulatory system

47
Q

What determines the shape of vocal tract?

A
  1. changing place of articulators
  2. speech articulators: mobile vs immobile
48
Q

What is the filter of the source-filter theory?

A

vocal tract (i.e., nasal cavity, pharynx, and oral cavity)

49
Q

What are the sources of the source-filter theory?

A

Lungs
