of large diameter fibril surrounded by sarcolemma
Found in indirect flight muscles

17
Q

categories of insect muscles

A

visceral muscles
segmental muscles
appendage muscles

18
Q

occur in circular, longitudinal or oblique bands around the digestive tract
produces PERISTALTIC MOVEMENT

A

Visceral muscles

19
Q

series of bands that connect the body segments
connects the tergites and sternites

A

segmental muscles

20
Q

muscle attached to or within the appendages

A

appendage muscles

21
Q

basic mode of locomotion in insects on land
TRIPOD MANNER for adult insects

22
Q

basic mode of locomotion for worm shaped immatures
longitudinal and dorsoventral muscles oppose each other

23
Q

abdominal segments that assist in anchoring the abdomen

A

fleshy prolegs

24
Q

only adults can accomplish this (except mayyflies)

25
Q

flying muscles attached to the tergites and sternites

A

indirect flight muscles

26
Q

flying muscles attached to wing bases

A

direct flight muscles

27
Q

locomotion in more primitive insects

begins with the contraction of dorsoventral muscles - depression of the tergum (forcing wing base down and wing up; with thoracic pleurite as fulcrum - contraction of basalar muscles

A

up and down beat cycle
