module 1 pt 3 Flashcards
What is the function of blood
transport of respiratory gases, nutrients, and
waste
a soft tissue that composes muscles in animal bodies, and gives rise to muscles’ ability to contract.
muscle tissue
Muscle tissue is formed during embryonic
development through a process known as ______.
myogenesis
3 types of muscle tissues
-Skeletal muscle
- Cardiac muscle
-Smooth muscle
Functions of muscle: what type of muscle is responsible for movement
skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles
Functions of muscle: what type of muscle is responsible for stability
skeletal muscle
Functions of muscle: what type of muscle is responsible for communication
skeletal muscle
Functions of muscle: what type of muscle is responsible for controlling body openings and passages
skeletal and smooth muscles
Functions of muscle: what type of muscle is responsible for heat production
skeletal muscles
what are the properties of muscles
-Excitability
-Conductivity
-Contractility
-Extensibility able to stretch between contractions.
-Elasticity
property of muscles that respond to chemical, mechanical or electrical
stimuli.
excitability
property of muscles that initiate events that leads to contraction
conductivity
property of muscle that has the ability to shorten substantially
contractility
property o muscles that able to stretch between contractions
extensibility
Property of muscle that has the ability to return to original length after stretching
elasticity
Cells in this muscle are long and cylindrical in shape and multi-nucleated
skeletal muscles
3 contractile proteins in skeletal muscle
actin, myosin and tinin
Regulatory proteins in skeletal muscle
troponin and tropomyosin
A muscle in which cross-striations are present
skeletal muscle
what is a sacromere
contractile unit of skeletal muscle and defined as the distance between 2 “Z” discs.
types of muscle fibers
whole muscle fiber and single muscle fiber
composed of bundles of myofilaments
myofibril
areolar CT covering each muscle fiber and binding it to its neighbors.
Endomysium
What is Perimysium
dense irregular CT covering muscle fascicles
bundles of muscle fibers surrounded by perimysium
Fascicles
covering of dense irregular CT surrounding the entire muscle.
Epimysium
Skeletal Muscle Fascicle Arrangements:
thick in the middle and taper at the ends
fusiform
Skeletal Muscle Fascicle Arrangements:
muscle fibers are all parallel
parallel
Skeletal Muscle Fascicle Arrangements:
pennate
fascicles are short and attach obliquely to a
central tendon (feather shaped)
Skeletal Muscle Fascicle Arrangements:
spread out as a fan or converge to a point
convergent
