ch 10 muscle Flashcards

1
Q

Properties of muscle tissue

A

excitability(reactive to stimuli, generates electrical/mechanical response), contractility(cells shorten upon stimulation, creating tension),
extensibility(cells lengthen when pulled),
elasticity(reboud/recoil to a resting length after contract or extension)

Q

organizational levels of skeletal muscle

A

muscle> fascicle> muscle fiber> myofibril > myofilaments

18
Q

connective tissue covering for each organizational level of skeletal muscle

A

muscle- Epimysium (EPEN)for remembering
fascicle- Perimysium
muscle fiber- ENdomysium
myofibril - none
myofilaments- none

19
Q

what can tendons become that is a thin flattened sheet

A

aponeurosis

20
Q

what type of muscles are skeletal muscles

A

voluntary mucles bc controlled by somatic nervous system

21
Q

axon

A

long nerve fiber that branches at terminal and exxtends thru all 3 conn tiss layers almost reaching to muscle fiber. innervates skeletal muscle fibers

22
Q

neuromuscular junction

A

gap between axon and muscle fiber

23
Q

neuromuscular junction

A

gap between axon and muscle fiber

24
Q

what gives muscle fibers their striations

A

alternating arrangements of thin and thick muscle fibers in the myofibril

25
Q

Protein in thin myofiliments

A

Actin (main protein)
Z-LINE (holds ends together)
Tropomyosin
Troponin

26
Q

Protein in thick microfiaments

A

Myosin (main)
M-Line (held together by)

27
Q

sarcomeres and what do they contain

A

the functional contractile unit of skeletal muscle fiber. contains thin and thick filaments

28
Q

what connects sarcomeres together and forms as anchors for thin filaments

A

z discks.

29
Q

what is the myofibril surrounded by and what does it consist of

A

sarcoplasmic reticulum, consists of sarcomeres

30
Q

variable factors of skeletal muscles

A

size, speed, amount of force, endurance

31
Q

types of fibers

A

type 1 fibers - slow, oxidative
type 2b fibers- fast glycolic
type 2a fibers- fast, oxidative

32
Q

type 1 fibers

A

slow, oxidative. small, slow, red, good at aerobic metabolism, low force generation

33
Q

type 2b fibers

A

fast, glycolic.
big, fast, white, good at anaerobic, high force gen

34
Q

type 2a fibers

A

fast, oxidative. medium size, fast contracting but slightly fatigue resistant, med force gen

35
Q

what is a pennate tendon

A

where muscle fibers are attached to tendon at an oblique angle

36
Q

types of pennate muscle

A

unipennate(exntensor digitorum), bipennate(rectus femoris), multipennate(deltoid)

37
Q

how is cardiac muscle dfi

A

no fascicles, electronically connected with other cardiac muscles

38
Q

intercalated discs

A

special connects in cardiac muscle that contain ion channels to allow electrical activity to spread easily from cell to cell

39
Q

what causes the hear to beat

A

ion channels spread electrical activity from cell to cell in cardiac muscles allowing to hear to contract all of its muscles in near unison

40
Q

smooth muscle functional characteristics

A

contraction cuases shortening AND twisting
contraction is slow, smooth, fatigue resistant
contraction is involuntary

41
Q

smooth muscle structural characteristics

A

1cell is spindle shaped and has one nuc
2actin and myosin not in sarcomere of myofibs
-actin attached to dense bodies and myosin scattered in cell
3little, SR, no Ttubules,
4adjacent cells bound togeth and electrically coupled
