Q

what is the first stage of the conduction system and what does it do

A

SA NODE
sits just above right atrium
myogenic meaning self regulating
pacemaker
admits a signal(sends signal out)
CONTRACTING
crosses atria causing atrial systole forcing blood to ventricles

Q

what is the fourth stage of the conduction system

A

BUNDLE OF HIS
postsioned in septum
seperates signal into left and right
forces blood outwards from aaorta and pulmonery artery

11
Q

what do muscle spindles do

A

-detect how far and fast a muscle fibre is being stretched
-found between fibres of a skeletal muscle
-prevents overstretching
sends signal causing muscle to contract to prevent overstretching

Q

what do golgi tendon organs do

A

detect tension
prevent tearing
send signal to muscle to relax to prevent tearing

Q

what is a strecth reflex

A

when activated, muscle spindle relays info to CNS (central nervous system)
the CNS then sends signal back to muscles motor neurone initiating a contraction of the muscle
-stretch reflex
-reflex causes muscle to contract preveting overstretching
muscle under tension
tension gets too high, golgi tendon activated causing muscle to relax.

Q

what are the 4 stages of pnf

A

1.passive stretch
2.isometric contraction (voluntary)
3.relaxation
4.stretch (further)

16
Q

How is pnf administrated

A

-use of partner to hold passive stretch
-followed by voluntery isometric contraction against the partner before repeating passive stretch
-proprioreceports involved in pnf=muscle spindles and Golgi tendon organs
-muscle spindle explanation of what it does
-muscle spindles occur during the passive stretching phase of pnf
-person then performs the isometric contraction against the resistance of the partner
-Golgi tendon organs activated, overrides stretch reflex
-this is called AUTOGENIC INHIBITION where muscle relaxes and then can be stretched further

17
Q

what is an isotonic muscle contraction

A

where a muscle contracts to create movement. it can be concentric(muscle shortens) or eccentric(muscle lengthens)
way to remember think tonic water make you drunk/movement

18
Q

what are two isotonic muscle contraction examples

A

concentric-upward phase of a bicep curl
essentric-downward phase of a push up the triceps contracting. Flexion at elbow

19
Q

what are isometric contractions

A

when a muscle conracts but doesnt cause movemnt or change in length.

20
Q

what are two examples of isometric contractions

A

holding the plank
holding the crucifix position on the rings

21
Q

what are the three types of muscle fibres

A

Slow twitch fibres (TYPE 1)
fast oxidative glycolytic fibres (TYPE 2A)
fast glycolytic fibres (TYPE 2B)

22
Q

slow twitch fibres sporting examples

A

-aerobic
-e.g. marathan runner

23
Q

fast oxidative glycolytic fibres type 2a

A

-ananerobic
-e.g. 400m runner

24
Q

fast glycolytic fibres type 2b

A

-anaerobic
-e.g. 100m sprinter

25
Q

fast glycolytic fibres type 2b

A

-anaerobic
-e.g. 100m sprinter

26
Q

characteristics of type 1 slow twitch fibres

A

-high amount of mitochondria
-high density of capillaries meaning rich supply of blood therefore oxygen
-high concentration of myoglobin
e.g. LONG DISTANCE

27
Q

functional characteristics of type 1 slow twitch fibres

A

-slow contraction speed
-slow motor neurone conduction capacity
-muscle fibres rely on aerobic respiration

28
Q

what are some examples of type two bx muscle fibres

A

100m
weightlifting
jumping

29
Q

what are the characteristics of type two B fast twitch glycotic muscle fibres

A

-fastest conraction spped
-large motor neurone
-fast conduction capacity
-high levels of ATPase , can release energy for contraction very quickly
However
have very low levels of mitochondria
low levels of myoglobin
far smaller capillary network
meaning not able to use oxygen to produce energy
fatigue very quickly and have low aerobic capacity

30
Q

what are the characteristics of type two A fast twitch oxidative glycotic fibres

A

-show characteristics of both slow twitch and fast twitch muscle fibres
-hence oxidative glycotic
-good supply of blood due to capillarisation
-moderate amount of myoglobin
-do not have enough ,mitochondria to sustain energy production
-cannot contract for as long as type 1 muscle fibres
-they will fatigue quicker then type 1 but can contract for longer then type 2b

31
Q

other characteristics of type two A fast twitch oxidative glycotic muscle fibres

A

-share characteristics of both type 1 and type 2x msucle fibres
-have high levels of ATPase
-lare motor neurone nd fast conduction speed
-means fibre is able to contract with powerful fast conductions
-moderate leavles of mitochondria ,myoglobin
-moderate levels of capilleries
-high aerobic capacity compared ti 2x
-allows it to sustain high force contractions for longer

32
Q

what are some sporting examples of type 2a fast twitch oxidative glycotic muscle fibres

A

400m
800m and most invasion sports
