M2: Musculoskeletal System Flashcards
Origin of Sternocleidomastoid
Sternum and Clavicle
how many heads does triceps have
three<br></br>
○ connective tissue membrane covering the outer surface
of a bone
○ Outer - blood vessels and nerves | Inner - single layer of
bone cells (Osteoblasts & Osteocytes)
Periosteum
○ Dark band
○ Contains MYOSIN and ACTIN filaments
A BAND
small
minimus
muscle shortening
Concentric
Small, flattened surface
Facet
muscle cell plasma membrane
SARCOLEMMA
muscle cell membrane in the area of the junction
Motor End Plate / Postsynaptic Membrane
Tunnel
Meatus
Hyaline cartilage covering ends of bones
Articular Cartilage
amount of tension produced by the muscle is constant during
contraction, but the length of the muscle changes.
Isotonic
group of muscles working
together to produce a movement
Synergists
how many heads does triceps have
three
round
teres
thin filaments
ACTIN
barbs on a feather
from a common
tendon that runs the
length of the entire
muscle
Pennate
○ muscles that hold one bone in place
relative to the body while a usually more
distal bone is moved
Fixator
Hollow center of the bone
Medullary Cavity
○ consists of a group of enlarged axon terminals that
rests on a portion of the sarcolemma
○ Composed of:
■ axon terminals
■ area of the muscle fiber sarcolemma they
innervate
Neuromuscular Junction / Synapse
● Framework that helps maintain the body’s shape and
enables us to move normally.
● Composed of bones, cartilage, and ligaments.
SKELETAL SYSTEM
Insertion of Brachioradialis
radius
how many heads does biceps have
two
○ Found on the axon
○ Synaptic vesicles contain Acetylcholine
Presynaptic Terminal
arm
brachial
Insertion os Sternocleidomastoid
mastoid process of temporal bone
○ “Bone Building”
○ extensive endoplasmic reticulum and
numerous ribosomes
○ produce collagen and proteoglycans
○ produce bone matrix until they
become surrounded by bone matrix →
becomes OSTEOCYTES
OSTEOBLAST
Main portion
Body, Shaft
buttock
gluteus
quadrate or rectangular
quadratus
○ join end to end, forming the myofibrils
○ smallest portion of a muscle that can contract
SARCOMERE
moves a structure toward the midline
adductor
multiple per cell at the periphery
NUCLEUS
Mm cell cytoplasm
SARCOPLASMA
Knob or enlargement
Tubercle or Tuberosity
● relatively thin | flattened
shape
● well-suited to providing a
strong barrier around soft
organs
● Skull bones, the ribs, the
scapulae , and the sternum
Flat Bones
among a group of synergists, if
one muscle plays the major role in
accomplishing the movement.
The brachialis is the prime mover
in flexing the elbow.
Prime mover
formation of new bones |
occurs multiple times during life
Ossification
3 Seperate proteins that compose Actin Myofilaments
○ (1) actin
○ (2) tropomyosin
○ (3) troponin
○ Matured Osteoblasts
○ Account for 90–95% of bone
cells | life-span of 25 yrs.
○ produce the components
needed to maintain the bone
matrix.
OSTEOCYTES
short
brevis
● Cortical Bone | Solid outer
layer of bones
● more matrix and is
denser with fewer pores
COMPACT BONE
fibers run the length of
the entire muscle and
taper at each end to
terminate at tendons,
creating a wider belly
than the ends
Fusiform
○ contains actin and myosin filament
○ composed of about 1500 adjacent MYOSIN FILAMENTS and
3000 ACTIN FILAMENT
MYOFIBRIL
Center portion of the bone
Diaphysis
