Terms | Definitions |
|---|---|
 Functions of muscular tissue | produce body movement, stabilizing body positions, storing and moving substances, generate heat |
| Properties of muscular tissue | electrical excitability, contractility, extensibility, elasticity |
| Skeletal muscle tissue | striated and voluntary primarily attatched to bones |
| Cardiac muscle tissue | striated and involuntary forms the wall of the heart |
| Smooth muscle tissue | non-striated and involuntary located in visceral organs |
| Sphincters | ring like bands of smooth muscles |
| Isometric | holding straight out, extention |
| Isotonic | flexing shortening length of muscle |
| Example of extensibility | uterus stretching to house fetus |
| Fascia | sheet of irregular connective tissue surrounding muscles |
| Deep fascia | lines body walls |
| Epimysium | outermost layer surrounding whole muscles |
| Perimysium | layer of dense irregular tissue surrounds fascicles |
| Endomysium | made up of reticular fibers wraps around each muscle fiber |
| Myofibril | contain thin and thick filaments arranged in sacromeres |
| Sarcolemma | plasma membrane of muscle fiber |
| Sarcoplasmic reticulum | stores calcium |
| Sarcoplasm | contains glycogen to be used for ATP production |
| Sarcomere | functional unit of myofibril |
| Thick filament | made of myosin |
| Thin filament | made of actin |
| Myosin to binding site | the muscle will continue to contract |
| Mitochondria in skeletal muscle fiber are arranged in | rows near contractile muscle proteins |
| Atpase is located | myosin |
| Single unit smooth muscle fibers | will under go stress-relaxation response when stretched |
| Dystrophin | protein that reinforces sarcolema |
| Aponeurosis | type of tendon that formed as a broad flat layer |
| Beginning of a contraction | calcium ions are released from sarcoplasmic reticulum into cytosol |
| During contraction | thin filaments are pulled towards M line |
| Structure sequence for muscle contraction | axon of neuron, sarcolema, T-tubules |
| Latent period | calcium is released into sarcoplasm |
| M line to Z disc | contain titin |
| Hypertrophy | muscle enlargement, increase in diameter of muscle fibers |
| Myosin | motor protein in all three muscle tissues |
| Fast oxidative glycolytic | leg muscles |
| Fast glycolytic | biceps |
| ATP hydrolysis reaction | energizes the myosin head |
| Fused tetanus | muscle contraction where twitches can't be detected |
| Fibrillation | contraction not visible under skin |
| Slow oxidative | least powerful muscle fiber |
| ATP and calcium ions | contraction will continue if these are in cytosol |
