24
found where strong support and minimum movement are required | comprises the intervertebral disks and the pubic symphysis
fibrocartilage
25
a type of cartilage found at the joints over the ends of the bones where its commonly referred to as gristle (is the most abundant in the human body )
hyaline cartilage
26
long short flat irregular are all
bone shapes
27
what are the functions of the skeletal system?
``` support protection movement facilitation mineral storage blood cell reproduction storage of energy ```
28
a large rounded articular prominence
condyle
29
a prominent border or ridge
crest
30
a prominence above condyle
epicondyle
31
a smooth flat surface
facet
32
an opening though which blood vessels nerves ligaments pass
foramen
33
a depression in or a bone
fossa
34
a depression which accommodates a soft structure , such as blood vessel,nerve or tendon
groove
35
a rounded articular projection supported on the constricted portion of a bone
head
36
a less prominent ridge than acrest
a line
37
a tube like passageway running without a bone
meatus
38
a projection of a bone
a process
39
a sharper crest
a ridge
40
a slender projection
spine
41
a large blunt projection found only on the femur
trochanter
42
a smooth rounded process
tubercle
43
a large rounded usually roughened process
tuberosity
44
there are 3 types of muscle
skeletal smooth and cardiac skeletal muscle = voluntary Smooth muscle = involuntary
45
the ability of muscle tissue to receive and respond to stimuli
excitability
46
the ability of muscle tissue to actively generate force to shorten and thicken to do work (contract)
contractility
47
the ability of muscle tissue to be stretched
extensibility
48
the ability of muscle tissue to return to its original shape
elasticity
49
functions of the muscular system include:
motion maintenance of posture heat production 85% of all body heat is generated by muscle contractions
50
muscle fibers can be classified as :::::;;
fast twitch or slow twitch
51
muscle use oxygen to contract therefore they have numerous mitochondria and large concentration of myoglobin. (it works for extended periods)
slow twitch
52
work using anaerobic metabolisms, they are good for bursts of energy such as that required for weight lifting and sprinting.
fast twitch
53
are composed of cylindrical organelles called myofibrils. | composed of thick and thin filaments known as actin and myosin
muscle fibers ``` actin = thin myosin = thick ```
54
the light bands that contain only actin are called
I bands
55
dark bands containing only myosin are called
A bands
56
center of A bands are known as
H zone
57
z line to z line are known as
sarcomere
58
when a muscle contracts and the distance between the ends of the muscles changes.... concentric muscle shortens as it contracts.
isotonic contraction
59
when a muscle contracts and the ends of the muscle do not move or the body part that the muscle affects do not move
isometric contraction
60
a state of wasting away of muscle
muscular atrophy
61
the reverse of atrophy,,,it is an increase in the diameter of muscle fiber more forceful contractions produce
muscular hypertrophy
62
a reddish pigment which stores oxygen until needed for muscle contraction
myoglobin
63
when muscles becomes depleted of oxygen due to excessive use the respiratory system can not keep up....(increase heart rate and breathing)
oxygen debt
64
a condition of prolonged muscle contraction when oxygen debt becomes extreme
muscle fatigue
65
a system of sensory and motor nerve activity that provides information as to the position and rate of movement of different body parts to the central nervous system
proprioception
66
are cells that are distributed throughout the belly of the muscle. (send information to the nervous system about muscle length or rate of change to prevent excessive stretching )
muscle spindles
67
this receptor lies near the tendon junction | it transmits information regarding the tension in the muscle to the brain and spinal cord. it limits excessive tension
golgi tendon organs
