Chapter 9 Lecture Muscle Anatony Flashcards
Functions of the muscular system
1- movement
2- stability/posture
3- guarding entrance and exits of body
4- generating heat “primary metabolic furnace”
5- nutrient reserve?
How are skeletal muscles named?
-origin(head) = muscle connected to something (DOESN’T MOVE)
-INSERTION= connection site that moves
-GENERAL LOCATION=action/motion/function/size/shape/fiber pattern
Oblique means
Longus means
Brevis mean
-oblique-at an angle
-longus- long
-brevis- brief, short
Muscle fiber = is same as ..
Muscle fiber = muscle cell
How do skeletal muscles “pull” on bones
-they must be connected to bone by connective tissue.
Epimysium is
Dense irregular connective tissue
Surrounds entire muscle
Perimysium is
Dense irregular connective tissue
Surrounds muscle fascicle (group or individual muscle fibers)
Endomysium is
Reticular fibers that surround individual muscle cells
Describe the connective tissues that surround a muscle and how a muscle is able to pull a bone.
-connective tissue that surrounds muscle is=epimysium
Muscle pulls a bone by:
-Endomysium pulls on perimysium
-perimysium pulls on epimysium
-epimysium pulls on tendon
-tendon pulls on periosteum
-periosteum pulls on bone
Musculoskeletal levers have 3 parts..
Fulcrum (F) -the turning point
AND
2 forces (f)
Where is the greatest force found?
Closest to the Fulcrum (F)
force exerted by muscle only exists where
Muscle is INSERTED
Class 1
Fulcrum in the middle
-weak or strong
Class 2
Weight in middle
-strong , mechanical advantage
-force of weight-closest to fulcrum
Class 3
Muscle force in middle
-always weak , mechanical disadvantage
Ligand is..
Chemical or substance that can direct activity of a cell (tell cell what to do)
Ligands can..
-increase or decrease cell activity
-make cells divide
-might turn on or off specific genes in a cell
- tell cells to stop/start
-OPen or close doors /channels in cell membrane of cell
Ligands can only create a response in?
A specific cell
2 general classes of a Ligand are…
1: lipids- smaller, go through cell membrane
2: proteins- larger, CANT go through cell membrane
2 general classes of receptors:
1: membrane bound receptors- part of cell membrane
2: Intracellular receptors- receptors floating around in cytoplasm of cell
Membrane bound receptors respond to..
Protein ligands cause they can’t enter the cell
Intracellular receptors respond to.
Lipid ligands bc they can go through cell membrane and enter the cell
Some cell membrane (cm) are
-receptors
-doors
-ion channels
Acetylcholine (ACH, ach, Ach) is
A ligand that will open chemically gated sodium (Na+) ion channels on a cell membrane (cm) of skeletal muscle cells.
Sodium potassium pump is
Uses active transport to “pump” out sodium (Na+) and Potassium (K+) ions through/across cell membrane
Sodium (Na+) Potassium (K+) Pump
pumps how many sodium out and how many potassium in
3Na+ —-out
2K+—- In
With 1 ATP
Resting membrane Potential inside cell is
-90mv in skeletal muscles
