muscle tissue

Question 1

fasicle

Answer 1

tubes, group of muscle cells

Question 2

muscle cell (fiber)

Answer 2

multiple nuclei, striated

Question 3

a bicep is an

Answer 3

organ

Question 4

sarcolemma

Answer 4

Muscle fiber has a phospholipid bilayer, cell membrane

Question 5

myofibrils (organelle)

Answer 5

tubes full of contractile proteins

Question 6

hypertrophy

Answer 6

An enlargement of existing muscle
fibers

Question 7

sacroplasm

Answer 7

muscle cell cytoplasm and contains organelles like
mitochondria and a large amount of glycogen for energy production and
myoglobin for oxygen storage.

Question 8

sarcoplasmic reticulum

Answer 8

modified endoplasmic reticulum (stores calcium Ca++)
-neuron triggers SR to release calcium

Question 9

sacromeres

Answer 9

basic unit of contraction in skeletal muscle

Question 10

myosin

Answer 10

the main component of thick filaments, functions as
a motor protein. (contractile protein)

Question 11

actin

Answer 11

the main component of thin filaments, connects to the
myosin for the sliding together of the filaments. (contractile protein)

Question 12

tropomyosin

Answer 12

keeps us from spasms (regulatory protein)

Question 13

troponin

Answer 13

Protein that sits on top of tropomyosin, calcium binds to (regulatory protein)

Question 14

titin

Answer 14

elastic protein that helps a sarcomere return to its
resting length after a muscle has contracted or been
stretched. (structural protein)

Question 15

dystrophin

Answer 15

attaches tubes of contractile proteins to cell membrane

Question 15

main function of skeletal muscle

Answer 15

to move bone
Stabilize joints
Produce heat

Question 16

epimysium

Answer 16

dense fibrous connective tissue

Question 17

perimysium

Answer 17

dense irregular connective tissue

Question 18

Endomysium

Answer 18

areolar connective tissue

Question 19

Aponeurosi

Answer 19

holding muscle to muscle

Question 20

Muscle origin

Answer 20

Attachment site to the bone where it is stationary

Question 21

Muscle insertion

Answer 21

muscle attaches to bone that is going to move

Question 22

Catabolize

Answer 22

big to small generates heat

Question 23

Conductivity

Answer 23

The property of muscle tissue that allows an impulse to travel down the entire length of the cell membrane

Question 24

Botulinum toxin (botox)

Answer 24

paralysis muscles, blocks the ACh synaptic vesicle

Question 25

Myoglobin

Answer 25

supports oxygen in muscles, makes muscle fibers red

Question 26

Slow twitch muscle fibers

Answer 26

aerobic, steady power, endurance

Question 27

Fast twitch fibers

Answer 27

anaerobic, explosive powers, fatigues easily

Question 28

Slow oxidative fibers

Answer 28

use the most oxygen, use ATP slowly (trunk and lower limbs)

Question 29

Fast oxidative fibers

Answer 29

less myoglobin, use atp quickly

Question 30

Fast glycolytic fibers

Answer 30

white fibers, not a lot of ability to use ATP- use it really fast (upper limbs)

Question 31

Compartment syndrome

Answer 31

adductor swells, compressed nerves and blood vessels
Fascia needs to be cut to release muscle and swelling
