33
Q

What are the 7 functional groups in muscle tissue

A

agonist
antagonist
origin
synergists
fixators
insertion

34
Q

Functional groups in muscle tissue:
muscle whose contraction is responsible for a particular movement

A

prime mover or agonist

35
Q

muscle whose action opposes that of the prime mover or agonist

A

antagonist

36
Q

point of attachment where least movement occurs

A

Origin

37
Q

what is a synergists muscle tissue

A

muscles that assist the movement of the prime mover or agonist

38
Q

this stabilize the origin of the prime mover so it can move more efficiently

A

fixators

39
Q

point of attachment with greatest movement

A

insertion

40
Q

What in an intrinsic muscle and an extrinisic muscle

A

Intrinsic muscles are localized to a specific area (i.e. hand,
tongue, back, etc.). They function and are contained only
within that area.

Extrinsic muscles extend into other areas and are responsible
for movements of areas other than where they are attached.

41
Q

This is initiated by an action potential (nerve impulse) and followed by the release a chemical neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ)

A

contraction

42
Q

type of muscle contraction that is controlled by a nerve impulse (action potential) transmitted by the motor nerve from the brain or spinal cord

A

Skeletal muscle contraction

43
Q

What is a motor

A

a unit consists of all the muscle fibers controlled by a single motor neuron.

44
Q

what is acetylcholine

A

Neurotransmitter for skeletal muscle

45
Q

It is a functional connection between a nerve fiber and its target cell.

A

synapse

46
Q

this is a synapse between a motor nerve and a muscle fiber.

A

Neuromuscular junction

47
Q

bulbous swelling at the end of a motor nerve above the motor end plate on the muscle fiber

A

Synaptic knob, terminal or bouton

48
Q

gap between the synaptic knob and the motor end plate

A

synaptic cleft

49
Q

small packets of neurotransmitter chemical (e.g. acetylcholine, norepinephrine, etc.)

A

synaptic vesicles

50
Q

This is based on the biochemical process for making ATP and how fast the fibers contract

A

fiber type

51
Q

What are the 3 fiber types

A

-Red or slow oxidative fibers [dark staining (R)]
-Intermediate or Fast oxidative fibers [lighter (I) staining)
-Fast glycolytic fibers [white (W) or non staining]

Q

A muscle tissue known an myocardium

A

Cardiac muscle tissue

53
Q

What is a cardiac muscle

A

is a structurally and functionally unique subtype of muscle tissue located in the heart, that actually has characteristics from both skeletal and muscle tissues

54
Q

It is capable of strong, continuous, and rhythmic contractions that are automatically generated.
