Pregunta Respuesta
What are the 3 types of muscle tissue? skeletal smooth cardiac
Skeletal Muscle VOLUNTARY by SNS STRIATED - somatic makes up gross skeletal muscles moves and stabilize bones
Cardiac Muscle INVOLUNTARY by ANS STRIATED - visceral forms most of heart and adjacent parts walls pumps blood
Smooth Muscle INVOLUNTARY by ANS UNSTRIATED - visceral most vessels and hollow organs move substances thru them by sequential contractions (pulsations or peristalitic contractions)
3 parts of Skeletal Muscle Endomysium Perimysium Epimysium
2 types of Skeletal Fiber Orientation Parallel Pennate
What is a motor unit? motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates - small and large
In order for a muscle to work it... must cross a joint
A muscle primarily performs its action based on... its attachment points
What is muscle attachments? Its origin and insertion sites or proximal and distal attachments
Do all skeletal/striated muscle attach to bone? False, exceptions are the around eyes and in the fingers
Aponeuroses flat sheet tendons that anchor the muscle to the skeleton and/or to deep fascia, or the aponeurosis of another muscle
How are muscles named? Based on their function or bone attachment or based on their position or length.
Flat Muscles parallel fibers with aponeurosis Ex. external oblique or sartorius
Pennate Muscles feather-like in arrangement of fascicles can be unipennate, bipennate, multipennate
Fusiform Muscles spindle shaped with round thick muscle belly and tapered ends
Quadrate Muscle has 4 equal sides Ex. rectus abdominis
What functions do muscles have? Can be: Prime movers (agonists) Antagonist Synergists Fixators
Prime movers (agonist) Muscles produces specific movement - contracts concentrically - does most of the work Ex. bicep flexing
Antagonist Muscles opposes the action of another muscle (aka. prime mover or synergists) - eccentrically contacts Ex. tricep to bicep flexing
Synergists complement prime movers actions Directly or indirectly assist Ex. trapezius in elevation of shoulders
Fixators steadies the proximal parts of a limb through isometric contraction while movement occurs at the distal part. - can be shunt muscles.
What nerves supply skeletal muscles? Motor nerves usually through the deep aspect of muscle.
What are the specific skeletal muscle functions? Contracting Reflexive Tonic Contraction Active Contraction Isotonic/Isometric change in length
Isotonic movements can either be... Concentric (produce movement by shortening) or Eccentric (movement by controlled relaxation)
