Q

When an action potential reaches a muscle fiber, what is released?

18
Q

What provides energy necessary for contraction?

A

ATP released from glucose

19
Q

What allows myosin and actin to bind in the sliding filament?

20
Q

How many bones in the human body?

21
Q

bones that makeup central core of body (skull (cranial and facial bones), back and ribcage

A

axial skeleton (80 bones)

22
Q

bones that makeup upper and lower extremities, which include the shoulder girdle and pelvis

A

appendicular skeleton (126 bones)

23
Q

part of the body where two or more bones meet to allow movement

24
Q

Produces red and white blood cells

A

red bone marrow

25
Bone marrow that stores fat
yellow bone marrow
26
minerals stored by skeletal system
calcium and phosphorus
27
Body functions of skeletal system
movement, minerals storage, support, protection , blood cell formation
28
Disease classified as deterioration in bone regeneration
osteoporosis
29
most common, freely movable joint (found at shoulder and knees)
synovial joints
30
fill spaces between some bones and restrict movement (between vertebrae)
cartilaginous joints
31
fixed or immovable joints as they do not allow any movement between the bones
fibrous joints
32
connective bone tissue that forms outer layer of long bones; dense and solid; provides strength and protection
compact bone aka cortical bone
33
connective bone tissue that forms the inner layer of flat and irregular bones, has a porous structure, and contributes to shock absorption and reducing weight
spongy bone aka cancellous
34
type of bone embedded in tendons
sesamoid bone
