Chp. 10 Muscle Tissue Flashcards
What are 3 types of Muscle Tissue?
- Skeletal Muscle Tissue
- Cardiac Muscle Tissue
- Smooth Muscle Tissue
Striations are?
thick filaments and thin filaments lined up
4 Common Features of Muscle Cells?
- Excitability
- Contractibility
- Extensibility
- Elasticity
Excitability:
ability to receive and respond to stimulus
Contractibility:
ability to shorten when stimulated
Extensibility:
stretching movement
Elasticity:
ability to recoil to resting length
7 Functions of Skeletal Muscle Tissue?

- stores nutrients
- maintains body temp.
- bulk transport of body fluids
- blood
- lymph
