Summary
This document is a review for an anatomy exam. It covers various aspects of muscle anatomy and physiology, including definitions of specialized terms, explanations of how muscles function, discussion of nerve function, and pictures of muscle diagrams. Diagrams and other supplementary information are included.

Review Week 3 Exam 1 Download 11/7 at 11:59pm until 11/14 **Characteristic that describes both skeletal and cardiac muscle.** **\ DEFINE:** electrical excitability- Responsiveness, ability to receive and respond to stimuli\ contractility- ability to shorten forcibly when stimulated extensibility- ability to be stretched\ elasticity- ability to recoil to resting length **Define:** Epimysium- Dense irregular connective tissue surrounding entire muscle; may blend with the fascia Endomysium- fine areolar connective tissue surrounding each muscle fiber Perimysium- fibrous connective tissue surrounding fascicles (groups of muscle fibers) **Define:** **I Band-shorten; contains thin filaments made of actin** **A Band- move closer to one another; dark region within a sarcomere that contains thick myosin filaments and some thin actin filaments** **Z Disc; Pulled toward the M line; plate like structures that marks the boundary of a sarcomere in muscle cells** **M Line- line at the center of a sarcomere to which myosin bind** **H Zone- disappear; region in the middle of a sarcomere, a contractile unit of skeletal muscle, that contains only thick myosin filaments and no thin actin filaments** **Define** sacroplasmic reticulum- network of smooth endoplasmic reticulum tubules surrounding each myofibril; Store and releases Ca2\ sarcomere- Smallest contractile unit (functional unit) of muscle fiber\ sarcolemma- muscle fiber plasma membrane **Acetylcholine is neurotransmitters is found at the neuromuscular junction and excitatory to skeletal muscles.** **The sliding filament theory or mechanism occurs when the thin (actin) filaments slide past thick (myosin) filaments towards the M line.** **Define:** Aerobic respiration -- how many ATPs produced and approximately how many seconds of energy 36 ATP produced and several minutes or longer Anaerobic glycolysis - how many ATPs produced and approximately how many seconds of energy; 2 ATP and lasts 10 to 30 seconds Creatine phosphate - how many ATPs produced and approximately how many seconds of energy; 1 ATP; 15 seconds of energy **Define:** Isotonic-muscles shortens because muscle tension exceeds load Isometric- no shortening; muscle tension increases but does not exceed load Eccentric Contractions- Muscle lengthens and generates force Concentric Contractions: Muscle shortens and does work (ex. Biceps contract to pick up a book) **Define:** Agonist/Prime Mover- Major responsibility for producing specific movement Antagonists- opposes or reverses particular movement Fixators-type of synergist the immobilizes bone or muscles origin rather than enhancing movement of prime movers; fivers prime mover stable base on which to act Synergists- helps prime movers **Define:** origin.- point where it attaches to the bone; attachment site that doesn't move during contraction\ insertion- place where one end of a muscle is attached to the freely moving bone of its joint; point at which a muscle attaches to a bone that moves during a muscle contraction **Skeletal muscle are under the somatic system (voluntary)\ ** **A mechanically-gated channel opens because of a physical distortion of the cell membrane. Many channels associated with the sense of touch are mechanically-gated. For example, as pressure is applied to the skin, mechanically-gated channels on the subcutaneous receptors open and allow ions to enter.** **Define:** Action Potentials- caused by changes in electrical charges, electrical current must be generated in sarcolemma Graded Potentials -- send electrical signals over short distances Summation Potentials-produces smooth continuous contractions that add up **Define:** Convergent series- broad origin fascicles converge toward single tendon insertion\ Spatial summation - Spatial summation occurs when multiple presynaptic inputs each stimulate the postsynaptic neuron at the same time. \ Divergent series\ Temporal summation- Additional stimuli delivered before relaxation is complete produce temporal (wave) summation\ Salutatory conduction **Central Nervous System** consists of brain and spinal cord **Peripheral Nervous System** consists of nerves that branch out from the brain and spinal cord (cranial nerves and spinal nerves) A diagram of a human body Description automatically generated\ **Name the muscle and what is the action** ![A close-up of a human face Description automatically generated](media/image2.png)**\ Name the muscle and what is the action** A close-up of a cell Description automatically generated ![A human body with muscles and bones Description automatically generated](media/image4.png)\ **Name the muscle and what is the action** A diagram of a nerve cell Description automatically generated ![A diagram of a spinal cord Description automatically generated](media/image6.png) A computer screen shot of a diagram Description automatically generated\ **What is the gap called** **Define:** Oligodendrocytes Schwann cells Astrocytes Microglia Ependymal cells **Rotator Cuff Muscles** Supraspinatus Infraspinatus Teres Minor Subscapularis **Hamstrings** Bicep femoris Semitendinosus Semimembranosus **Quadriceps** Rectus femoris Vastus lateralis Vastus intermedius Vastus medialis **Name the 3 types of muscle fibers and describe the function of each** **List and describe the major functional divisions of the nervous system**
