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
The attachment point of muscle that has limited movement
Origin (more proximal)
26
The attachment point that has more movement
Insertion (more distal)
27
This attaches muscle to bone, muscle to cartilage, or muscle to muscle and is usually very strong
Tendon
28
Responsible for movement A. agonist B. Antagonist C. synergists/fixator
Agonist
29
Perform movements opposite of the agonist A. agonist B. Antagonist C. synergists/fixator
Antagonist
30
Stabilize structure A. agonist B. Antagonist C. synergists/fixator
Synergists/Fixator
31
What are the three important muscl emovements?
Isometric, concentric, eccentric
32
Muscle action where its point of attachment do not move relative to each other
Isometric (ex: flexing in the mirror)
33
Muscle is active and its attachments are drawn closer together
Concentric (ex: bicep curl)
34
Muscle is active and its attachments are drawn further apart
Eccentric
35
Bending at a joint to bring surfaces/ends closer together
flexion
36
bring surfaces/ends apart (straightening)
extension
37
Complex process used to convert your inner thoughts into a chain of speech sounds
linguistic encoding/speech - this is generated through the activation of multiple muscle systems
38
What are the systems (5) involved in speech?
1. respiratory 2. phonatory 3. articulation 4. resonance 5. nervous
39
What system is the "power" source for speech production?
respiratory system
40
What system is involved in producing 'voice'
phonation system
41
What separates the upper and lower airways?
vocal folds
42
What houses the vocal folds?
larynx
43
What vibrates to produce voice?
vocal folds
44
2 bands of muscle (thyroarytenoid muscle) that control the presence of phonation or not & lower airway protection
Vocal folds
45
vocal folds up from the ________ first
bottom
46
The system of structures involved in shaping the oral cavity for production of the sounds of speech
articulatory system
47
What determines the shape of vocal tract?
1. changing place of articulators 2. speech articulators: mobile vs immobile
48
What is the filter of the source-filter theory?
vocal tract (i.e., nasal cavity, pharynx, and oral cavity)
49
What are the sources of the source-filter theory?
Lungs
