Chapter 10- Muscle Tissue Flashcards
ExAmples of smooth muscle
Peristalsis (digestion)
Constriction/dilation (bronco/vaso
Example of cardiac muscle
Heart beat
What Are five functions of the skeletal muscle
1) moving the skeleton
2) maintain posture
3) support organs (abdominal)
4) guard exits
5) maintain body temperature
What are four tissues found in the skeletal system
1) skeletal muscle
2) connective tissue
3) blood
4) nerve
(Connective) what is epimysium
Surrounds/insulates an entire muscle (dense collagen inside)
(Inside) what is perimysium
Surrounds/insulates a bundle of muscle cells (intermediate collagen)
What is a bundle of muscle cells called
Fascicles
(Within) what is endomysium
Surrounding/insulating individual muscle fibers (fine collagen)
What is a tendon
Collection of all the connective tissue running through out the entire muscle
-Fuses periosteum to connect muscles to bone
What is aponeurosis
Broad flat sheet of connective tissue (muscle to muscle to broad flat bone)
What does blood do
Branch repeatedly and extensively to serve each fiber (cell)
Capillary beds for
Blood
Synaposis for
Nerves
What is skeletal muscle tissue made of
Long fibers (some as long as an entire muscle)
Skeletal muscle tissue is
Striated
Need multiple for structural/ functional protein synthesis through out the cell
Multinucleated
They cannot divide but stem cells (satellite cells ) …..
Can make new muscle fibers
Define cell membrane (sarcolemma)
Extends to the center of the cell as transverse tubials (t-tubes)
Define cytoplasm (sarcoplasm)
Contains the organelles structural proteins
