Physiology of MSK Flashcards
What is the mesoderm gives rise to ?
Paraxial
What is the middle layer of the muscles ?
Mesoderm
Paraxial gives rise to ?
Somites
Somites gives rise to?
Skeletal muscles
What are the type of muscles ?
Skeletal muscles
Smooth muscles
Cardiac muscles
What transfers chemical energy to mechanical energy ?
Energy transduction
What is the process of energy storage called?
Glycogen
What are striated muscles ?
Skeletal muscles
Cardiac muscles
Voluntary muscles
What are the unstriated muscles ?
Smooth muscles
Involuntary muscles
How does skeletal muscle look like ?
Uninucleated
multinucleated and cylindrical
usually attached to the skeleton
Skeleton
How does Cardiac muscle look like ?
It has a gap junction
branching pattern
involuntary
striated
Heart
How does smooth muscle look like ?
nonstriated
spindle-shaped
involuntary
It covers the internal organs
GI
Important things about Skeletal muscle?
Since skeletal muscles can contract and relax, it appears to be in voluntary muscles.
What is the structure of skeletal muscle
Epimysium
Fascicle
Perimysium
Each fibre is covered by ?
Endomysium
The endomysium is covered by a bunch of fascicles, each fascicles contain lots of muscle fibers and the covering of muscle fibre called?
Endomysium
Each muscle contains lots of myofibriles
These myofibrils contain thin and thick filaments
Where is muscle fibre?
Muscle fibre is situated deep inside the muscle, inside the fascicle
What is Sarcolemma
The cell membrane of the muscle fibre surrounding the skeletal muscle fiber
What is sarcoplasm
The cytoplasm of the muscle fiber is called sarcoplasm
What is the endoplasmic reticulum called?
Sarcoplasmic reticulum
What does sarcolemma form?
It forms T-tubules
What could you have on the sides of T tubules ?
Lateral sacs ( endoplasmic reticulum ) on lateral sides together called Triad
What is the function of sarcoplasmic reticulum( endoplasmic reticulum)?
Store Calcium
