muscle review Flashcards
(61 cards)
cause of muscle fatigue
oxygen debt
collagen sheath around a fascicle
perimysium
abducts arm
deltoid
connects the muscle to the bone
tendon
bending or movement of a limb toward the midline of the body
adduction
light bands of myofibrils, contains only action
I band
crosses the legs
sartorius
ability to receive and respond to a stimulus
excitability
flexes elbow and supinates forearm
biceps brachii
movement where the angle of the joint is increased
extension
pulls scalp posteriorly
occipitals
bundle of muscle fibers
fascle
pulls corners of mouth inferiorly, frowning muscle
platysma
contractile unit of myofibrils
sacromere
adducts and flexes the arm, rotates the arm medially
pectoralis major
closes and protrudes lips, kissing muscle
orbicularis oris
since muscle fibers fully contract, this allows for the varying degree of muscle movements
graded response
midline inside light I band,site for actin attachment
z disc
has the major responsibility for producing a particular movement
prime mover
one neuron and all the muscle fivers it stimulates
motor unit
thin filaments are composed of
actin
raises eyebrow, wrinkles forehead
frontalis
ability to shorten
contractability
straited, voluntary, mulinucleate, generates heat
skeletal muscles
