28
Q

types of striated muscles

A
  1. skeletal
  2. cardiac
29
Q

Skeletal muscle

A
  1. striated
  2. voluntary muscles
  3. attached to the bones that
  4. powers movement of the skeleton
30
Q

Smooth Muscle

A
  1. All except cardiac and skeletal
  2. involuntary muscle
  3. of the inner linings of organs, such as the
    stomach, intestines, blood vessels, and others
31
Q

Voluntary muscle

A

a muscle that can be controlled

32
Q

The body has how many muscles

A

over 600 muscles made up of elastic tissue

33
Q

Involuntary muscles

A
  1. work automatically
  2. Cardiac, striated
  3. smooth, control actions of organs
34
Q

Voluntary

A
  1. can be controlled
  2. Skeletal: attached skeleton via tendons
  3. include the arms and legs
    4.striated
35
Q

Muscle

A
  1. Power movement of the skeleton – tendons that connect
    muscles to bone and move bones when muscles contract
    (shorten)

2* Give body form (or posture)

3* Produce most of body heat – when muscles contract,
food is burned for energy producing heat; more muscle
activity, greater amount of heat; when body is cold, rapid
muscle contractions occur producing heat, called
shivering

36

A

206

37
Q

bones are covered by

A

periosteum which contains blood vessels

38
Q

Skeleton (Bones) – Function

A

The skeleton
o Provides a framework for the body
o Protects organs of the body

39
Q

Bones

A

o Allows body to move
o Stores calcium
o Make and store blood cells (in bone marrow)

40
Q

Opposition

A

touching the thumb and finger of the same hand
