Week 6 Flashcards
Skeletal Systems (3 Types)
- Hydrostatic Skeletons
- Exoskeletons
- Endoskeletons
What is Compact Bone?
The outer dense layer.
Mix of phosphate and collagen
What is Spongey/Medullary Bone?
Forms epiphyses inside thick shell of bone
Porus
What is Intramembranous Development?
Bones forming within a layer of connective tissue
What is endochondral development?
Begins as a tiny cartilaginous model.
The Four Basic Joint Movement Patterns
- Ball and Socket
- Hinge
- Gliding
- Combination
Muscle fibers are bundles of…
elongated structures called myofibrils
Myofilaments
A Bands - stacked thick and thin
I Bands - Only thin, in two halves because of Z line
Sarcomere - Distance between Z lines
Thick and Thin Filaments
Thick - Several myosin (two polypeptide chains wrapped around each other).
Thin - Two chains of actin proteins in a helix
Cross-Bridge Cycle
Hydrolysis of ATP by myosin activates head for power stroke
ADP and Pi are bound to head, which binds to actin to form a cross-bridge
During power stroke, myosin returns to normal shape, realsing ADP and Pi
ATP binds to head and releases actin
Motor Unit
Motor neuron and all muscle fibers it innervates
Slow-twitch muscle fibers
Type I Fibers
Fast-twitch muscle fibers
Type II Fibers
Appendicular Locomotion
Produced by appendages that oscillate
Axial Locomotion
Produced by bodies that undulate, pulse, or undergo peristaltic waves
(Three) Functions of circulating blood
- Transportation
- Regulations
- Protection
Blood plasma is
92% water
Carriers Ions, Nutrients, Wastes, Hormones, and Proteins
Red Blood Cells are
Erythrocytes
White Blood Cells are
Leukocytes
Blood cell production is called
Hematopiesis
Stem cells, two
Lymphocytes
Myeloid Stem Cell
Fish hearts have ___ chambers
