where are osteocytes located
lacuna
whic type of muscle has no striations
smooth
what affects skin color
genetics, environment, physiological
what does skin not do
promote water loss
layers of dense connective tissue that surround the entire muscle are called
fascia
hematopoiesis, the production of blood cells, occurs in the
red bone marrow
the site where the motor neuron and the muscle fiber meet is the
neuromuscular junction
whats is the difference between the origin and the insertion of a muscle
the immovable end is the origin and the movable end is the insertion
what shortens in the sliding filament theory of muscle contraction
sarcomere
compact bone is made up of
tough tissue that looks solid
skeletal muscle
is striated, is largley under voluntay control.( a and b are correct
are composed primarily of myosin
thick filaments
are composed of actin, troponin and tropomyosin
thin filaments
which of the following does not happen during a muscle contraction
the thick and thin filaments shorten
how do mscle fibers produce ATP
from creatine phosphate, through anaerobic cellular respiration, through aerobic cellular respiration(a, b and c are correct.)
oocurs when additional stimuli arrive before the fiber has relxed after the intial stimulus, usually result in subsequent contraction that are stronger than the 1st
wave of summation in muscle fiber(a and b are correct)
is autrohythmic, contains branched cells that are connected by intercalated discs, obtains ca+2 required for contraction from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and outside the cell, mantians contractions for longer period of time that skeletal muscle tissue
cardiac muscle tissue( all of the above are correct
both skeletal and ___ muslce are straited, but onky skeletal muscle is voluntarily controlled
cardiac
___ is a protein found in the sarcoplasm of skeletal muscle cells that binds and releases 02
myoglobin
____ muslce is nonstriated and not under voluntary control. it is found in blood vessels.
smooth
whic of the following cells would be expected to be most active in replacing bone matrix lost due to an injury
osteoblasts
canaliculi, osteocytes, lacunae, osteons
associated with compact bone( all of the above )
lubricates joints, helps absorb mechanical shocks, brings nutriets, and o2 to cartilage, removes wastes and co2 from cartilages

hinge joints allow which of the following main types of movement
flexion/extension
planar joints allow which of the following main types of movement
gliding
the ___ protects skin and deeper tissues from germs, chemicals and heat
epidermis
the ___ produces melanin to help protect cell nuclei from uv damage
melanocyte
functional unit of compact bone
osteons
channels in bone matrix; allow ostecytes to communicate with each other
canaliculi
gaps in bone matrix which contain osteocytes
lacunea
the release of __ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum is the signal to start contraction
calcium
for muscle contraction to occur the sarcomere needs
calcium and atp
