COLLAGEN in ligaments is LOOSER- increasing mobility
ex. thumb to wrist

bones are shaped differently with SHALLOWER SOCKETS
ex. completely out of socket without pain

-increase risk of sprains and osteoarthritis
-increased risk of mental health issues
due to LOWER COLLAGEN levels in ligaments affecting proper blood circulation

-synovial joint- most movement

54
Q

origin vs inversion

A

origin- muscle attach to stable/stationary bone
(stable )

inversion- point where muscle attach to bone that is moved most

55
Q

skeletal muscles. how are they arranged?

A

-opposing pairs

AGONIST MUSCLE
-primary responsible muscle

ANTAGONSIT MUSCLE
-muscle that counteracts the agonist

ex. leg extention
agonist- quad
antagonist- ham

56
Q

three types of muscle tissue

59
Q

explain sliding filament theory?
how does a muscle contract?

A

(involuntary)regulate body functions
-puplis dilate/constrict- digestion, blood pressure etc.

  • sympathetic
    (prepares for emergencies)

-parasympathetic
(return body to normal)

SOMATIC (voluntary)
- awareness of environment
(afferent- send into to CNS
efferent- send info skeletal muscles

63
Q

what are neurons?

A

neurons- specialized cells that transmit nerve impulses

64
Q
