In the Stages of Change Model: the individual does not exercise and is not planning to start exercising within the next 6 months.
Precontemplation stage
In the Stages of Change Model: the individual does not currently exercise but is planning to start within 6 months.
Contemplation stage
In the Stages of Change Model: the individual is planning to begin exercising soon and has taken steps toward it and may even be sporadically exercising.
Preparation stage
In the Stages of Change Model: the individual has been exercising for less than 6 months.
Action stage
In the Stages of Change Model: the individual has been exercising consistently for 6 months or more.
Maintenance stage
What are the 3 main parts of the neuron?
- cell body (includes nucleus, organelles, mitochondria)
- axon (cylindrical projection that transmits impulses to other neurons)
- dendrites (gather info from other parts of the body and transmit it back into the neuron)
Sensory receptors sensitive to change in length of the muscle and the rate of that change.
muscles spindles
A specialized sensory receptor located at the point where skeletal muscle fibers insert into the tendons of the skeletal muscle: sensitive to changes in muscular tension and rate of tension change.
Golgi tendon organ (GTO)
Receptors located in and around the joint capsule that respond to pressure, acceleration, and deceleration of the joint.
Joint receptors
Neurological signal from the muscle spindle that causes a muscle to contract to prevent excessive lengthening.
stretch reflex
A division of the skeletal system consisting of the skull, rib cage, an the vertebral column.
Axial skeleton
A division of the skeletal system consisting of the arms, legs, and pelvic girdle.
Appendicular skeleton
The filaments of a myofibril; including actin and myosin.
myofilaments
The thin, string like, myofilament that acts along with the myosin to produce muscular contraction.
actin
The thick myofilament that acts along with actin to produce muscular contraction.
myosin
The structural unit of a myofibril composed of actin and myosin filaments between 2 Z-lines.
sarcomere
Muscle fibers that are small in size, generate lower amounts of force, are more resistant to fatigue, and tend to be more distal from the heart.
Type I (slow twitch) muscle fibers
Muscle fibers hat are larger in size, generate higher amounts of force, are faster to fatigue, and tend to be more proximal to the heart.
Type II (fast twitch) muscle fibers
The upper chambers of the heart that gather blood returning to the heart.
atrium (atria)
The lower (inferior) chambers of the heart that pump blood to the lungs and body.
ventricle
Located in the right atrium, this node initiates an electrical signal that causes the heart to beat. Nicknamed “the pacemaker of the heart”.
sinoatrial (SA) node
Located between the atria and ventricles, this node delays the impulse from the sinoatrial node before allowing it to pass to the ventricles.
atrioventricular (AV) node
Which carries oxygenated blood away from the heart: arteries or veins?
arteries (veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart)
Small arteries that eventually divide into capillaries.
arterioles
Small veins that allow blood to drain from capillaries into the larger veins.
venules
