25
chord-like structures which are extensions of connective tissue surrounding each muscle that connects or attaches it to the bone.
tendons
26
3 muscle coverings
epimysium perimysium endomysium
27
this is the muscle covering or the connective tissue covering that surrounds the whole muscle.
Epimysium
28
the muscle covering that surrounds or encompasses the fascicle.
perimysium
29
inside the fascicle has a smaller unit known as muscle fibers. The muscle covering that surrounds or encompasses the muscle fibers
endomysium
30
is the muscle cell membrane.
Sarcolemma
31
serves as the cytoplasm of the muscle cell.
Sarcoplasm
32
parallel thread-like structures that are found at the sarcoplasm.
Myofibril
33
Myofibril contains two proteins:
Actin filament Myosin filament
34
thin filament
Actin filament
35
thick filament
Myosin filament
36
the functional unit of a cell or the contractile unit of the cell.
Sarcomere
37
these are networks of membranous channels that surround each myofibril.
Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)
38
these are membranous channels that extend into the sarcoplasm as invagination containing extracellular fluid.
Triad (T tubules)
39
Sarcoplasmic reticulum contains-
triad; 1 transverse tubules and 2 cisternae or two enlarged portions of the SR.
40
these are light bands that are composed of thin actin filaments. It is closer to the Z line (border).
I band
41
these dark bands that are composed of thick filaments in combination with thin filaments.
A band
42
the center of the A band where only thick filaments are present.
H zone
43
a disk made up of protein alpha actin that anchors the thin actin filaments. Acts as a boundary between the sarcomere.
Z line
44
the functional unit of the striated muscle.
Sarcomere
45
Composed of myosin proteins Form the cross-bridges
Thick myofilaments
46
Composed of actin proteins Associated with troponin and tropomyosin proteins.
Thin myofilaments
47
Contraction results from a movement within the __________ in which the actin and myosin filaments slide past one another, shortening the _________.
myofibrils; sarcomere
48
Also known as myoneural junction
neuromuscular junction
49
Site where an axon and muscle fiber meet
neuromuscular junction
50
parts of neuromuscular junction
Motor neuron Motor end plate Synaptic cleft Synaptic vesicles Neurotransmitters
51
toxin that binds to each vesicle resulting in paralyzation of the entire vesicles.
botulinum toxin aka botox
52
It moves the vesicle towards the periphery of the axon terminal. It binds with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor preventing the sodium to enter the muscle fiber or motor neurons. -no muscle contraction -snake venom and curare.
Bungarotoxin
53
local anesthesia. The vesicles can move towards the periphery of the axon terminal and are capable of releasing the acetylcholine.
Procaine, lidocaine, benzocaine
54
Procaine and lidocaine once the sodium gated channel opens, it blocks the NAR causing ________
flaccid paralysis.
55
toxin that prevent the acetylcholinesterase to bind with acetylcholine causing the gates to be open all the time.
Some pesticides
56
some pesticides causes the sodium gated channel to always open causing constant contraction leading to __________
spastic paralysis.
57
immovable end
origin
58
movable end
Insertion
59
prime mover/doing the movement
agonist
60
reverses a movement
antagonist
61
aids the prime mover/unnecessary movements
synergist
62
specialized synergist
fixator
63
these can’t really hide your true and inner feelings by involuntary movement of the facial muscles.
microexpressions
64
facial muscle of surprised expression
epicranius
65
facial muscle of extreme frowning
platysma
66
facial muscle of closing the eyes
orbicularis oculi
67

orbicularis oris
68
facial muscle of smiling
zygomaticus major
69

71
facial muscle of blowing and sucking
buccinator
72
facial muscle of insincere smile
risorius
