Chapter 6 Muscles
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Muscle Cells | Muscle fibers |
muscle responsible for smiling | zygomaticus |
contractility? | the ability of skeletal muscle to shorten with force |
fascia? | located outside the epimysium. It surrounds and separates muscles. |
excitability | the capacity of skeletal muscle to respond to a stimulus |
mastication muscle- deep to the mandible | pterygoid |
lateral neck muscle | rotates and abducts the head |
occipitofrontalis (frontalis) | raises the eyebrows |
levator labii superioris-responsibility? | sneering |
changes the shape of the tongue. | intrinsic tongue muscles |
temporalis-responsibility? | chewing |
fast-twitch fibers | contract quickly and fatigue quickly |
muscle tone | constant tension produced by muscles of the body for long periods of time |
anaerobic respiration | without oxygen |
aerobic respiration | with oxygen |
slow-twitch fibers | contract slowly and more resistant to fatigue |
origin (head) | most stationary end of the muscle |
insertion | end of muscle undergoing the greatest movement |
portion between the origin and the insertion | belly |
amount of oxygen needed to convert lactic acid to glucose | oxygen debt |
muscles that work together to accomplish specific movements | synergists |
muscles that work in opposition to one another | antagonists |
one muscle that plays the major role in accomplishing the desired movement | prime mover |
length of the muscle contraction does not change | isometric |
amount of tension produced by the muscle | isotonic |
masseter-responsibilty? | chewing |
prime mover of the lateral neck muscle? | sternocliedomastoid |
torticollis | meaning a twisted neck |
moves the tongue | extrinsic tongue muscles |
pulls corners of the mouth downward | platysma |
single sheetlike muscle that covers the anterolateral neck | platysma |
muscle used to frown? | depressor anguli oris |
points of attachment of each muscle | origin and insertion |
2 types of muscle contractions | isometric and isotonic |
results when ATP is used during muscle contraction faster than it can be produced | muscle fatigue |
kissing muscles | orbicularis and buccinator |
orbicularis oris | puckers the lips |
flattens the cheek "trumpeters muscle" | buccinator |
closes the eyelids and causes crow's feet | orbicularis oculi |
contraction of an entire muscle | muscle twitch |
sliding of actin myofiloments past myosin myofilaments during contraction | sliding filament mechanism |
the muscle fiber will contract maximally at its | threshold |
known as "abs" | rectus abdomonis |
elevate ribs during respiration | external intercostals |
"white line" extends from sternum to the pubis | linea alba |
deltoid? | felxes, extends, and abducts the arm |
erector spinae? | group of muscles on each side of back, responsible for keeping back straight and body erect |
responsible for quiet breathing | diaphram |
gives the rectus abdomonis a segmented appearence in muscled person | tendinous inscriptions |
"swimmer's muscle" | latissimus dorsi |
attaches humerous to scapula | rotator cuff muscles |
shoulder, attaches humerous to scapula and clavicle, adducts the upper limb | deltoid |
extends forearm | triceps brachii |
flexes the forearm | biceps brachii |
primary flexor of the forearm | brachialis |
flexes and pronates the forearm | brachioradialis |
flexes wrist | flexor carpi |
extends the wrist | extensor carpi |
buttocks | gluteus maximus |
bulge of the calves | gastronemius and soleus |
