Final Exam Flashcards
What are the 4 main tissue types?
- Epithelial
- Connective
- Nervous
- Muscular
What are the 3 types of proteins in skeletal muscles?
- Regulatory
- Contractile
- Structural
What are the two types of contractile proteins in muscles?
Actin - THIN filaments
Myocin - THICK filaments w/ head and tail
What are the Regulatory proteins in skeletal muscles?
Tropomyocin - Covers the myocin binding sites
Troponin - Holds the tropmyocin in place, this is where Ca+ bonds to change the shape and start the contraction cycle
What are the layers and roles of connective tissues in muscles?
From SUPERFICIAL TO DEEP:
Epimysium - forms the OUTER layer (not present in cardiac)
Perimysisum - Groups the 10-100 muscle fibers into fascicles
Endomysium - Separates the individual msucles fibers
What are the 3 structural classifications for joints?
Fibrous Joints - collagen fibers
Cartilagenous Joints
Synovial joints
What are the 3 FUNCTIONAL types of joint classifications?
Synarthrosis - Immovable joint
Amphiarthrosis - Slightly moveable
Diarthrosis - freely movable (Synovial)
3 Types of Fibrous Joints:
Interosseous Membrane - Long bones
Sutures - Synarthroses
Syndesmoses - Gomphosis/Teeth
ISS
3 types of cartilagenous joints
Synchrondoses - b/t first rib/manubrium, amphi to syn
Symphyses - Pubic bone, cartilage
Ephiphyseal Cartilages - Growth plate
ESS
What are the three types of ATP production within muscle cells, which is unique to muscle fibers?
- Creatine Phosphate **Unique**
- Anaerobic Glycolysis
- Aerobic Respiration
Which type of ATP production do we do FIRST?
Which is the most efficient?
First: Creatinine Phopshate
Most Efficicient: Aerobic Respiration
What are the sequence of events in the contraction of a muscle?
- Sacroplasmic Reticulum releases Ca++ into sarcoplasm (Ca shows up to the party
- Ca++ bonds to the Troponin (bribes the security guard)
- Troponin moves tropomyosin away from the myosin-binding site on actin (security card walks away from the door)
- Contraction cycle can begin (Woo party!)
* ATP Hydrolysis (But first we need energy!)
* Attachment of Myosin to Actin (Get together)
* Power Stroke (Dance!)
* Detachment of myocin from actin
- Contraction cycle can begin (Woo party!)
What determines the strength of a muscle contraction?
The size of the MOTOR UNITS (smaller - precision, larger - power)
And the number of units activated at any given time. (force)
What are the different types of muscle contraction (think exercise)
IsoTONIC - Tone is the same, tension constant, but muscle changes length
- Concentric - Shorting
- Eccentric - Lengthening
IsoMETRIC - tension without changing muscle length (posture)
What are the two types of glands in the epithelium and what is the difference?
Endocrine : secrete hormones into the blood stream and have far reaching impact
Exocrine : secrete hormones into a duct, have a more local and limited impact
What is the healing sequence in deep wounds?
- Inflammation - Prep for repair
- Migration - Network
- Proliferation - Fill in the gaps
- Maturation - reorganizing

In epidermal wound healing, what is the main type of cell involved?
Basal Cells
What is the order of the skin layers, which layer only exists in thick skin / hairless skin?
BattleStar Gallactica Love Child
Stratum Basale
Stratum Spinosum
Stratum Granulosum
Stratum Lucidum (clear, only in thick)
Stratum Corneum
What are the two types of epithelial tissue arrangements?
Shape:
- Cuboidal
- Columnar
- Squamous - flat
Arrangement:
- Simple
- Pseudostratified
- Stratified
