Question 1: Name and describe each muscle

Answer:

Parallel- fascicles run parallel to the axis of the muscles. (Sartorius) Fulsform- fascicles nearly parallel to longitudinal axis of muscle. (Biceps Brachii) Convergent- fascicles spread over a braod area coverage at thick central tendon. (Pectoralis)

Question 2: what is capsular ligament?

Answer:

The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is a capsular ligament, so called because it is continuous with the joint capsule. It resists valgus stress at the knee by keeping the joint approximated.

Question 3: What are muscles made of

Answer:

Sacromeres, a unit of muscle tissue.

Question 4: List and define muscle groups

Answer:

Agonist- main muscle responsible for movement (biceps during curl) Synergist- plays secondary role in movement (Brachioradialis during curl) Antagonist- action directly opposite of agonist. ( Triceps during curl)

Question 5: Describe the 3 types of muscle tissue

Answer:

Cardiac is striated/involuntary, makes up the wall of the heart. Smooth is smooth/ involuntary found in other organs such as those of the digestive system. Skeletal is most common, striated/ voluntary and fatigues easily. Attaches to the bone, all moving

Question 6: How many bones are in the skeletal system?

Answer:

206 Bones. 80 in the Axial system= skull spine and ribs. 126 in Appendicular system= 60 upper extremities, 60 lower extremities, 2 pelvic gurdle, 4 shoulder gurdle.

Question 7: Define tendons

Answer:

Tendons connect muscle to bone and serve as a mechanical bridge to transmit the force created by muscle contraction.

Question 8: Define Tendons

Answer:

A strong fibrous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone.

Question 9: What is the function of the atrium?

Answer:

one of the two upper cavities of the heart passing blood to the ventricles.

Question 10: what is the function of the arteries ?

Answer:

Blood vessels carrying oxygenated blood away from the heart and to the tissues

Question 11: Define the circulatory system

Answer:

The heart, arteries and veins that act as a transport system.

Question 12: what is an intrinsic ligament?

Answer:

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) are situated inside the knee joint to resist anterior and posterior (forward and backward) movement of the tibia, respectively.

Question 13: What is wolf's law?

Answer:

Explanation for bone adaptations as a result of the loads placed on them.

Question 14: what is the function of the veins ?

Answer:

Blood vessels carrying blood toward the heart to remove waste and pick up more oxygen

Question 15: Describe muscle fibers

Answer:

Type 1- slow twitch fibers, aerobic, good for endurance. Type 2- fast twitch, anaerobic, good for power.Type 2A- moderately fatigue. Type 2x - fast fatigue.

Question 16: Define Epimysium

Answer:

Fibrous elastic tissue that surrounds a muscle.

Question 17: what are the 3 joint classifications?

Answer:

Fibrous-fibrous connective tissue joining two bones that allow for very little movement. Cartilaginous- joints moderately movable joints made of fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage. Synovial- fluid fillled joints found that move against one another.

Question 18: what is the nervous system?

Answer:

The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It is responsible for controlling the voluntary/involuntary functions of the body and mind.

Question 19: list and define classifications of neurons

Answer:

Sensory neurons are responsible for communicating tactile, visual and auditory information. Motor neurons initiate muscle contraction or activate glands. Inter-neurons are nerve cells that connect neurons to other neurons.

Question 20: What is Proximal and Distal?

Answer:

Proximal means closer to the mid line of the body while distal means further away from the mid line.

Question 21: Name and describe each muscle

Answer:

Multipennate- fascicles attach obliquely from many directions to several tendons. (Deltoid) Unipennate- facsicles are arranged on only one side of tendon. (Extensor Digitorum = Forearm) Bipennate- fascicles arrange on both sides of tendon. (Soleus=Calf)

Question 22: List and define 3 muscle actions

Answer:

Concentric- muscles shorten (upward movement in bicep curl) Eccentric- muscles lengthen (downward movement in curl) Isometric- joint angle and muscle length do not change. (Plank)

Question 23: Define Fasciculi

Answer:

Bundles of muscle fibers.

Question 24: List and define 5 main categories of bones.

Answer:

Sesamoid Bones- small bones in the tendon of a musculotendinous joint (patella and flexor tendon of the foot and thumb). Irregular Bones- serve a variety of purposes; includes the bones of the spine (bones in the ischium and pubis0.

Question 25: Define Endomysium

Answer:

The connective tissue covering each muscle fiber.

Question 26: Name the two parts of the nervous system

Answer:

Central nervous system and peripheral nervous system.
