Contraction of a muscle is due to movement of microfilaments or

22

myo and mys

prefixes that refers to muscles

23

prefixes that means flesh

24

26
New cards

Flat

27
New cards

Circular

28
New cards

skeletal muscles

Produce movement, maintain posture, generate heat, stabilize joints

29
New cards

skeletal muscles

Most are attached by tendons to bones

30
New cards

tendons

are mostly composed of collagen fibers

31
New cards

skeletal muscles

Most are attached by tendons to bones - Cells have more than one nucleus (multinucleated) - Striated - have stripes, banding - Voluntary - subject to conscious control - Tendons are mostly made of collagen fibers - Found in the limbs - Produce movement, maintain posture, generate heat, stabilize joints

32
New cards

skeletal muscles

Typically 50-60mm in diameter, and up to 10cm long

33
New cards

myofibrils

The contractile elements of skeletal muscle cells are

34
New cards

smooth muscles

No striations - Spindle shaped - Single nucleus - Involuntary- no conscious control - Found mainly in the walls of hollow organs - Lines walls of viscera - Found in longitudinal or circular arrangement - Alternate contraction of circular & longitudinal muscle in the intestine leads to peristalsis

35
New cards

smooth muscles

Actin and myosin filaments are present (protein fibers) in

36
New cards

cardiac muscles

Striations - Branching cells - Involuntary - Found only in the heart - Usually has a single nucleus, but can have more than one - Main muscle of heart - Pumping mass of heart - Critical in humans - Heart muscle cells behave as one unit - Heart always contracts to it’s full extent

37
New cards

cardiac muscles

Cardiac muscle cells (fibres) are short, branched and interconnected - Cells are striated & usually have 1 nucleus-Adjacent cardiac cells are joined via electrical synapses (gap junctions) - These gap junctions appear as dark lines and are called intercalated discs

38
New cards

skeletal muscles

Voluntary movement of skeletal parts • Spans joints and attached to skeleton • Multi-nucleated, striated, cylindrical fibres

39
New cards

smooth muscles

Found in walls of hollow internal organs • Involuntary movement of internal organs • Elongated, spindle shaped fibre with single nucleus

40
New cards

cardiac muscles

Found in the heart • Involuntary rhythmic contraction • Branched, striated fibre with single nucleus and intercalated discs

41
New cards

Central Nervous System

Skeletal is controlled by what nervous control

42
New cards

autonomic nervous system

Cardiac Muscle is controlled by what nervous control

43
New cards

autonomic nervous system

Smooth is controlled by what nervous control

44
New cards

twitch and tetanus

Types of Responses

45
New cards

twitch

A single brief contraction. Not a normal muscle function

46
New cards

Tetanus

One contraction immediately followed by another. Muscle never completely returns to a relaxed state. Effects are compounded

47
New cards

ATP

Energy is stored in the muscles in the form of

48
New cards

ATP

comes from the breakdown of glucose during Cellular Respiration

49
New cards

Mitochondria of the cell

ATP forms in the

50
New cards

true

When a muscle is fatigued (tired) it is unable to contract because of lack of Oxygen

51
New cards

Isotonic and Isometric

Exercise and Muscles

52
New cards

isotonic

muscles shorten and movement occurs (most normal exercise)

53
New cards

isometric

tension in muscles increases, no movement occurs (pushing one hand against the other)

54
New cards

insertion

attachment to an immovable bone

55
New cards

Origin

attachment to a movable bone

56
New cards
