2
2 Layers of dense connective tissue surrounding/separating muscle
3
3 Fascia
4
4 Broad fibrous sheets attached to other muscles
5
5 Aponeuroses
6
6 Connected to periosteum of bones
7
7 Tendons
8
8 Protein that makes up thick filaments of myofibrils
9
9 Myosin
10
10 Zone in the middle of A bands consisting of myosin filaments only
11
11 H zone
12
12 Shortening of sarcomeres and pulling of the muscle against its attachments
13
13 Muscle contraction
14
14 Element necessary for myosin crossbridge attachment to actin
15
15 Calcium
16
16 Enzyme involved in provision of energy for crossbridges
17
17 ATPase
18
18 Neurotransmitter essential to initiate muscle contraction
19
19 Acetylcholine
20
20 Stores excess energy released by the mitochondria, and regenerates ATP from ADP & Phosphate
21
21 Creatine phosphate
22
22 Minimal strength of stimulus to cause a fiber to contract
23
23 Threshold stimulus
24
24 Sustained muscular contraction lacking any relaxation
25
25 Tetany
26
26 Achieved by a continuous state of sustained contraction of motor units within a muscle
27
27 Muscle tone
28
28 Decrease in size of a muscle
29
29 Muscle Atrophy
30
30 What increases in muscular hypertrophy
31
31 Size of muscle fibers
32
32 Do smooth muscle fibers have striations?
33
33 No
34
34 Two types of smooth muscles
35
35 Multiunit and Visceral
36
36 Type of smooth muscle found in iris of the eye
37
37 Multiunit
38
38 Type of smooth musle that is responsible for peristalsis in hollow organs and tubes
39
39 Visceral
40
40 Two neurotransmitters which stimulate or inhibit smooth muscle contraction, depending on the target muscle
41
41 Acetylcholine and Norepinephrine
42
42 Name of membrane junctions that join cardiac muscle cells
43
43 Intercalated Disks
44
44 Reason why cardiac muscles can contract for longer periods
45
45 Transverse tubules supply extra calcium
46
46 Term used to describe the contraction of cardiac muscle, with regard to its “beat”
47
47 Rhythmic
48
48 Immovable end of a skeletal muscle
49
49 Origin
50
50 Skeletal muscle doing most of the work out of a group of muscles
51
51 Prime Mover
