Question
Answer
What is Muscle Fiber?   show
🗑
show Has one neuron and all the muscle cells stimulated by that neuron. Skeletal muscles must be stimulated by a nerve to contract  
🗑
Sarcomere   show
🗑
Muscles are attached to at least two points called?   show
🗑
What is origin?   show
🗑
What is insertion?   show
🗑
What is aponeurosis?   show
🗑
What is a tendon?   show
🗑
What are the steps in muscle cell contraction and in order?   show
🗑
What is the basic organization of the skeletal muscle?   show
🗑
show around single muscle fiber  
🗑
show around a fascicle (bundle) of fibers  
🗑
Where is the fascia located?   show
🗑
Where is epimysium located?   show
🗑
What is the function of the tropomyosin?   show
🗑
What is the function of troponin?   show
🗑
show actin is the major component of thin filaments, which, together with the motor protein myosin (which forms thick filaments), are arranged into actomyosin myofibrils. These fibrils comprise the mechanism of muscle contraction. shortening of the muscle.  
🗑
show Cardiac, Skeletal, and Smooth  
🗑
show Have striations, usually has a single nucleus, joined to another muscle cell at an intercalated disc, involuntary, and found only in the heart.  
🗑
What are the characteristics of smooth muscle tissue?   show
🗑
show Most are attached by tendons to bones, cells are multinucleate, striated (have visible banding), Voluntary (subject to conscious control), Cells are surrounded and bundled by connective tissue.  
🗑
What are the 4 basic functions of muscles?   show
🗑
What is the definition of a graded response?   show
🗑
Graded response: Twitch   show
🗑
Graded response: Tetanus   show
🗑
Graded response: Unfused (incomplete) Tetanus   show
🗑
show No evidence of relaxation before the following contractions. The result is a sustained muscle contraction.  
🗑
show the striations of a skeletal muscle cell. Also myofibrils align to give distinct bands.  
🗑
What is the function of acetylcholine?   show
🗑
show The main function of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is to protect the brain from changes in the levels in the blood of ions, amino acids, peptides, and other substances.  
🗑
show In the central nervous system, a collection of neuron cell bodies is called a nucleus. In the peripheral nervous system, a collection of neuron cell bodies is called a ganglion. the difference between a is that both are collections of nerve cell bodies  
🗑
What cell type and structure produces cerebrospinal fluid, and what produces myelin sheaths in both the CNS and PNS?   show
🗑
show myelin sheath.  
🗑
What is the difference between afferent and efferent?   show
🗑
show Any of the impulse-conducting cells that constitute the brain, spinal column, and nerves, consisting of a nucleated cell body with one or more dendrites and a single axon.  
🗑
What is an axon?   show
🗑
show The portion of a nerve cell that contains the nucleus but does not incorporate the dendrites or axon.  
🗑
show the motor neuron (efferent), the sensory neuron (afferent), and the inter neuron.  
🗑
show If there is no dendrite, it is a unipolar neuron; with one dendrite, it is a bipolar neuron; if there is more than one dendrite, it is a multipolar neuron  
🗑

show • Cerebrum • Diencephalon • Cerebellum • Brain Stem  
🗑
What are neurons?   show
🗑
show long process of a nerve fiber that generally conducts impulses away from the body of the nerve cell.

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
