actin
29
what is the basic functional or contractile unit of the skeletal muscle
sarcomere
30
Microscopic threadlike structures found in skeletal muscle fibers
myofilament
31
elongated contractile cells of muscle tissue
muscle fibers
32
muscles move bones by doing what
pulling against them
33
What encloses some tendons
tendon sheaths
34
We are able to maintain our body position because of continuous, low-strength muscle contraction called muscle tone or
tonic contraction
35
muscle tone maintains what
posture
36
how is fatigue caused
if muscle fibers are stimulated repeatedly without adequate periods of rest, the muscle contraction decreases
37
what is oxygen debt
the continually increasing metabolism that must occur in a call to remove the excess lactic acid that accumulates during prolonged exercise (labored breathing // pay the debt)
38
of all the muscles contracting simultaneously the one mainly responsible for producing a particular movement is called
prime mover
39
what maintains the body posture by counteracting the pull of gravity
skeletal muscle tone
40
an adequate stimulus will contract a muscle cell completely because of
all of nothing theory (threshhold stimulus)
41
when oxygen supplies run low muscle cells produce
lactic acid
42
the point of contact between the nerve ending and the muscle fiber is called what?
neuromuscular junction
43
muscle fibers are stimulated by a nerve cell called?
motor neuron
44
What is the type of neurotransmitter operating in each NMJ is called
acetylcholine
45
muscle hypertrophy can be enhanced by
strength training
46
endurance training is also called
aerobic training
47
what is endurance training
it increases the muscles ability to sustain moderate exercise over a long period of time
48
What is Twitch contraction
is a quick jerking response to a stimulus, can be seen by isolated muscles but plays a minimal role in normal muscle activity
49
what is tetanic contraction
is more sustained and steady, (leg cramp) it is produced by a series of stimuli bombarding the muscle in rapid succession
50
what is isotonic contraction
muscle produces movement at the joint
51
what is concentric contraction (shortens or lengthens)
muscle shortens
52
what is eccentric contracture (shorten or lengthens)
muscle lengthens
53
name examples of isotonic contractions
walking, running, lifting, twisting, breathing and most body movements
54
supine and pronation refer to
hand positions that result from movement of the forearm
55
dorsiflexion and plantar flexion refer to
ankle movement up or down
56
inversion and eversion refers to what
ankle movement side to side
57
contractions that melt together to produce a sustained contraction are called
tetanus
58
increase in muscle size is caller
hypertrophy
59
what produces movement opposite to prime movers
antagonist
60
what assists prime movers with movement
synergist
61
muscles that help other muscles produce movement are called
synergist
62
the connecting bridges between myofilaments form properly only if what is present
calcium
63
frontal muscle allows you to
raise your eyebrows
64
the orbicularis oculi allows you to
pucker your lips
65
the zygomaticus allows you to
smile (elevates the corners of your mouth)
66
mastication refers to
chewing
67
masseter does what
elevates the mandible
68
the temporal does what
assists the masseter in closing the jaw
69
what does sternocleidomastoid do
allows you to move/rotate your neck
70
what does trapezius do?
moves or stabilizes your scapula
71
what does your pectoralis major do
chest moves arms
72
where is your latissimus dorsi and what does it do
lower back and is an extenser of the arm
73
where is you deltoid muscle located and what does
back of shoulder/ upper arm abducts arm
74
```
which if the following is not part of the hamstring
A semi-membranous
B semi-tendinousus
C rectus femoris
D Biceps femoris
```
C RECTUS FEMORIS
75
where is the tibialis anterior
leg below the patella
76
where is the gastrocnemius
majority of the calf
77
Striations are found where
Skeletal and cardiac muscle
78
Intergulated disks are found where
Between the myocardial cells of the heart
79
Another name for skeletal muscle is
Voluntary saturated and skeletal
80
Muscle contraction where muscle gets shorter
Concentric
81
What are tonic contractions
Maintaining the body posture (low strength muscle)
82
What are the muscles of the trunk
External and internal oblique
Transverse abdominis
Diaphragm
83
What position are your hand in in anatomical position
Supine
84
What’s the opposite movement of rotation
Supination
85
What happens when a prime mover flexes at a joint
The antagonist will extend the joint
86
What part of the body does the pectorals major move
Flexes and helps adult the arm
87
What percentage of your weight is skeletal
40%
88
What happens when calcium is released in the sacromere
When the muscle is stimulated to contract by the nerve impulse, calcium channels open in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (which is effectively a storage house for calcium within the muscle) and release calcium into the sarcoplasm (fluid within the muscle cell).
89

The elbow
90
What does the sartorius do
flexes thigh
91
what does the rectus abdominis do
flexes the trunk
92

adductor longus
gracilis
pectineus
