Q

what are the bands/lines

A
H band - myosin only
A band - myosin and actin
I band - only actin
Z line - disk connection between sarcomeres
M line - attachment site for myosin
18
Q

types of skeletal muscle

A

1 - slow
2A - intermediate
2B - fast

19
Q

describe type 1 fibres

A
slow twitch
used in posture
los of mitochondria and capillaries 
red appearance (myoglobin)
areoci metablosims
20
Q

desrbe type 2B fibres

A
fast twitch
white appearance (lack of myoglobin)
anaerobic conditions (glycolytic)
fatigue easily
powerful movements
21
Q

descrie type 2A fibres

A

intermmediate
little of myoglobin
contract rapidly
oxidative and glycolytic metabolism

22
Q

what innervates motor units

A

single motor neurone

23
Q

what determines the amount of control of muscle

A

motor ratio

how many muscle fibres the neurone innervates

24
Q

what is graded muscle contraction

A

recruits a certian amount of motor units depending on function and load

25
what control muscles
muscle spindles
26
what are the sensory receptors in. muscle
extrafusal and intrafusal muscle fibres
27
descibre intrafusal fibres
send proprioceptive info to SC and cerebellum | innervation from gamma neurones
28
describe extrafusal fibres
bulk of muscle | motor supply from alpha motor neurones inverted by defending motor pathways and sensory neurones from muscle spindsles
29
what determine regulation of amount of muscle contraction
density of muscle spindles
30
describe reflexes
CNS not involved acts on ligament, muscle spindles stretched signal to SC motor neurone srecive impulses causing contractin
31
where are synovial joints formed
between two or more bones
32
forms of synovial joint
partially mobile | fully mobile
33
what is found in a synovial joint
``` articular cartilage synovial cavity synovial joint reinforcing ligament articular capsule ```
34
articular cartialge
covers inner C (i.e. articualting surfaces) for smooth movement absorb compression takes up synovial fluid during movment
35
synovial cavity
contains synovial fluid | lubrication
36
synovial fluid
viscous contains phagocytic cells secreted by synovial membrane
37
articular capsule
connective tissue double layers (synovial membrane, outer fibrous capsule) lines all surfaces without articular cartilage
38
reinforcing ligament
strengthen joint | intrinsic, extrinsic, intracapsular
39
sensory innervation in oints
Golgi tendon organs (proprioception) | free nerve endings (pain)
40
what is trismus
excess tone of muscle
