Muscle Tissue Histo Flashcards
cytoplasm of a muscle cell
Sarcoplasm
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum of a muscle cell
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
Plasma Membrane or Plasmalemma of a muscle cell
Sarcolemma
Muscle Fiber or Myofiber
Muscle Cell
two or more primary tissues coming together form more complex tissue that preforms a complex function
Organ
Can be talked about in levels of cell, tissue, and as an organ
Muscles
Excitability (or Irritability)
Contractility
Extensibility
Elasticity
Characteristics of Muscle Tissue
Muscle tissue responds to stimulus by producing electrical signal
Excitability (or Irritability)
In a muscles cell the plasma membrane can produce a
action potential
Muscles contraction requires
ATP
Ability to return to original length after being shortened or stretched
Elasticity
Can be stretched, which is a passive process
Extensibility
Producing Movement Maintaining Posture Stabilizing Joints Generating Heat (i.e. Thermogenesis)
Functions of Muscle Tissue
Use of ATP is not efficient and produced heat, can be done by shivering
Generating Heat (i.e. Thermogenesis)
Muscle contraction that is under voluntary control
Skeletal muscle
Muscle contraction that is under involuntary control
Cardiac & Smooth muscle
Muscle contraction that is strong, quick contractions
Skeletal & cardiac muscle
Muscle tissue that is striated
Skeletal & cardiac muscle
Large, elongated, cylindrical, syncytial (multinucleated) cells
Skeletal muscle
Nuclei are at the periphery and are oval shaped
Skeletal muscle
Fusion of embryonic myoblasts (mesenchyme) creates characteristic ____ of ___ muscle cells
multinucleated, skeletal
Muscle cells that are uninucleated cells but can sometimes have a second nucleus
Cardiac muscle
Muscle cells that have centrally located nucleus
Cardiac and smooth
Elongated and branched cells joined by intercalated discs
Cardiac muscle cells
Actin and myosin line up in a lattice so there is no striated board in the cells
Smooth muscle
Muscle cells that are uninucleated, fusiform cells
smooth muscle
Found in the walls of hollow organs that need to propel things in one direction
smooth muscle
Muscles tissue that is found places including the respiratory and the eye
smooth muscle
Likes to lay down in sheet together in the same direction
smooth muscle cells
Classification of Skeletal Muscle Fibers in Humans that are slow, Red Oxidative Fibers
Type I
Classification of Skeletal Muscle Fibers in Humans that are Fast, Intermediate Oxidative-Glycolytic Fibers
Type IIa
Classification of Skeletal Muscle Fibers in Humans that are Fast, White Glycolytic Fibers
Type IIb
protein that binds oxygen & makes fiber look red
Myoglobin
Type of muscle fiber that are adapted for slow, continuous contractions over long periods, like in maintaining posture
Type I
Type of muscle fiber that have many mitochondria and lots of myoglobin (dark red color)
Type I
Type of muscle fiber that derive energy primarily from aerobic oxidative phosphorylation of fatty acids
Type I
Type of muscle fiber that have many mitochondria, and lots of myoglobin and glycogen (intermediate)
Type IIA
Type of muscle fiber that Utilize both oxidative metabolism and anaerobic glycolysis to produce energy
Type IIA
Type of muscle fiber that adapted for rapid contractions and short bursts of activity
Type IIA
Type of muscle fiber that have Fewer mitochondria and myoglobin, but LOTS of glycogen (pale color)
Type IIB
Type of muscle fiber that derive energy primarily via anaerobic glycolysis
Type IIB
Type of muscle fiber that are adapted for rapid contractions, but fatigue quickly
Type IIB
Yields glucose when hydrolyzed and is used for storage of energy in cells
Glycogen
Bisect the I bands
Z disc
bundles on contractile and regulatory proteins in a very regular pattern
Myofibrils
a structural unit of a myofibril in striated muscle, consisting of a dark band and the nearer half of each adjacent pale band
Sarcomere
Spands from Z disc to Z disc 1
Sarcomere
is made up sarcomeres repeating over and over
myofibril
Thin myofilaments
actin
Created by the pattern of the thick and thin filaments
Striated border
