Lecture Exam 2 (review) Flashcards
skeletal tissue
long, cylindrical, multi nucleated, striated cells

striated, interlocking, uninucleated found in heart
smooth tissue
non-striated, interlocking, crossing, uninucleated found in tubes
muscle tissue properties
excitability, contractability, extensibility, elasticity
respond to stimuli
excitability
ability to shorten
contractibility
ability to contract over range of resting lengths
extensibility
ability to return to normal length
elasticity
function of skeletal muscle
produce skeletal movement, maintain posture, support soft tissues, regulate entry/exit or materials, and maintain body temperature
muscle organization (smallest to largest)
myofilaments, myofibrils, muscle fibers, fascicles, muscle
actin, myosin; arranged into sacromeres
myofilaments
collections of myofilaments
myofibrils
AKA muscle cells/myocytes; collections of myofibrils; surrounded by endomysium
muscle fibers
what are muscle fibers surrounded by
endomysium
bundles of muscle fibers; surrounded by perimysium
fascicles
what are fascicles surrounded by
perimysium
collection of fascicles; surrounded by epimysium
muscle
what is muscle surrounded by
epimysium
functional contractile unit of muscle
sarcomere
sliding filament theory step 1
calcium ions enter muscle fiber via sarcoplasmic reticulum
sliding filament theory step 2
calcium ions bind to troponin; troponin changes orientation, moving tropomyosin and exposing myosin binding sites
sliding filament theory step 3
cross-bridging occurs between actin and myosin; muscle begins to contract
sliding filament theory step 4
electrical stimulation ends, calcium is reabsorbed into SR; ATP consumed
skeletal muscles contract from
insertion to origin
increased formation of ATP from ADP; 5-15% increase in 1RM; no substantial improvement in endurance exercises
creatine phosphate
motor unit
1 motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates
neurotransmitter responsible for initiating action potential in muscle fiber
acetylcholine
growth in number of myofilaments and therefore overall size of muscle
hypertrophy
decrease in size of muscle fiber
atrophy

function of endocrine system
release chemical messengers (hormones) into the bloodstream that regulate bodily functions
components of endocrine system

thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)
anterior pituitary gland. triggers release of thyroid hormones
adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)
anterior pituitary gland. triggers release of steroid hormones from adrenal glands
follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)
anterior pituitary gland. promotes development of oocytes and sperm
luteinizing hormone (LH)
anterior pituitary gland. promotes secretion of progestins and tesosterone
prolactin
anterior pituitary gland. milk production, mammary gland development
melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH)
anterior pituitary gland. increases melanin production
growth hormone (GH)
anterior pituitary gland. stimulates protein synthesis
antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin, ADH)
posterior pituitary gland. increases fluid retention
oxytocin
posterior pituitary gland. smooth muscle contraction in mammary glands, uterus, and prostate
thyroxin (T4)
thyroid gland. increases rate of cellular metabolism and oxygen consumption
calcitonin
thyroid gland. lowers blood calcium levels by inhibiting osteoclasts
parathyroid hormone (PTH)
parathyroid gland. increases blood calcium levels and decreases calcium excretion
adrenal cortex produces
corticosteriods
zona glomerulosa
adrenal cortex. produces mineralcorticoids
aldosterone
mineralcorticoids. produced by zona glomerulosa. water and sodium retention
zona fasciculata
adrenal cortex. produces glucocorticoids
