bone
t/f: CT contains epithelial components
false
___ membranes line the spaces between bone and joint
synovial
has smooth and slick membranes that secrete synovial fluid to reduce friction between opposing surfaces in moveable joint
CT
tissue that makes up most of the muscles attached to bone
skeletal
t/f: skeletal muscle is striated
true
t/f: smooth muscle is striated
false
skeletal muscle is under ___ control (voluntary/ involuntary)
voluntary
smooth muscle is under ___ control (voluntary/ involuntary)
involiuntary
cardiac muscle is ___ and under ___ control. Makes up the walls of the heart
striated
involuntary
function of ___ tissue: rapid regulation and integration of body activities
nervous
special characteristics of nervous tissue
- excitability
- conductivity
organs of nervous tissue
brain
spine
nerves
the conducting unit of a system
neuron
synovial membranes also line ___ when inflammation present
bursae
___ muscle lines hollow organs such as stomach and GI system, blood vessels
smooth
transmits nerve impulses away from the cell body
axon
transmits nerve impulses TOWARDS cell body and axon
dendrite
special connecting, supporting, coordinating cells that surround neurons
neuroglia
blood vessels, fibres, nerves follow the partitions ___ bundles of muscle
between
body contains more than ___ skeletal muscles
600
40-50% of body weight is ___ muscle
skeletal
___, along with skeleton determines the form and contour of the body
muscles
t/f: the muscle tissue only performs movement
false
- heat production
- posture
course sheath of CT that covers the whole muscle
epimysium
tough CT tissue that binds muscle fibers into fascicles (groups)
perimysium
delicate CT covering a muscle cell or muscle fiber
endomysium
3 CT components that form tendons
epimysium
perimysium
endomysium
a tendon is a tough cord continuous with the ___ and other end of fibrous periosteum covering the bone
epimysium
tube shape structure of fibrous CT enclosing tendons
tendon sheath
this has synovial lining to make it moist and smooth to enable easy mobility
tendon sheath
examples of where tendon sheath is found
wrist & ankle
fibrous wrapping of a muscle extending as a broad flat sheet of CT tendon
aponeurosis
primary function of aponeurosis
join muscles together
regions where aponeurosis is found
lumbar, plantar, palmar
general term for fibrous CT found under the skin and surrounding deep organs
fascia
because skeletal muscles are ___ they can respond to regulatory mechanisms such as nerve signals
excitable
term for pulling muscle ends together, regardless of whether the cells actually shorten. Produces body movement
contract
t/f: muscles may extend while still exerting force
true
term for ability of muscles to stretch, thereby allowing them to return to their resting length
extensibility
also known as nonstriated involuntary or visceral
smooth muscle
striated voluntary
skeletal
striated involuntary
cardiac
how are transverse tubules formed
inward extensions of sarcolemma
allow electrical impulses traveling along the sarcolemma to move deeper into the cell
transverse tubules
t- tubules extend across the sarcoplasm at right angles to the long axis of ___
muscle fibers
