What are gliding movements? Give an example.

one flat bone surface sliding or gliding over another. back to back, side to side. intercarpal and intertarsal joints

What are the characteristics of skeletal muscles?

bone, voluntary, striated

Name the ligaments in the elbow

anular, radial/ulnar collateral

What is the bursa? What is the word for inflammation of the bursa?

membrane sacs containing synovial fluid. reduces friction of joints. Bursitis.

What is the M line and Z disc?

M line: myomysin molecules. Z-disc: interruption in I line. (z-disc to z-disc is sarcomere)

What is resting potential, depolarization and depolarization?

-70mV, +33mV (message going through), message recieved

Whole muscles are made up of?

fascicles

What are sarcomeres made up of?

myofilaments: myosin, actin filaments

Describe these movements: opposition, supination, pronation, dorsiflexion, plantarflecion, inversion, eversion, pro/retraction, elevation/depression

opposition: thumb to finger, supination: radius and ulna parallel, pronation: radius and ulna crossed, dorsiflexion: superior surface of foot towards shin, plantar flexion: point toes, inversion: foot turns medially, eversion: foot turns laterally, mandible out, mandible in, chewing

What is the H zone?

myosin

What are the characteristics of cardiac muscle?

heart, involuntary, non-striated, branched, intercalated discs

Name connective tissue sheaths of skeletal muscle

Epimysium: around muscle, Perimysium: around fascicle, Endomysium: around muscle fiber. sarcolemma surrounds muscle cell before endo.

What are myofibrils made up of?

repeating units of sarcomere

What are muscle cells made of?

myofibrils

What is aerobic ATP?

32 ATP, slow, requires oxygen and glucose

What is symphysis?

fibrocartilage pad at the joint allowing some movement (pubic symphysis)

What is Synchondroses?

hyaline cartilage plate at end of joint. allows no movement. (epiphyseal plate)

What are cartilaginous joints?

articulating bones joined by cartilage fibers

Name the ligaments in the shoulder

coraco/glenohumeral

What is the threshold?

-55mV

What is Creatine Phosphate?

1 ATP, fast, Creatine Phosphate

What is Rheumatoid Arthritis?

autoimmune disease where body attacks its own joints

Describe the following angular movements: flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, circumlocution, rotation

flexion: bending, extension: straightening, abduction: away from midline, adduction: towards midline, circumducution: cone shape, rotation: bone turning around axis (C1 & C2)

What are I bands?

actin

What are A bands?

Actin & myosin

Name the characteristics of Sutures, Syndesmosis and Gomphosis

sutures: short collagen fibers (skull), Syndesmosis: longer collagen fibers (ligament fibers connecting distal ends of tibia and fibula), Gomphosis: short collagen fibers (tooth in bony socket)

What are fibrous joints?

articulating bones joined by collagen fibers

Name the ligaments in the knee

patellar, collateral (tibular/fibular), poplietal (arcuate/oblique), cruciate (anterior/posterior)

What are tendon sheaths? What is the term for inflammation of tendon sheaths?

elongated bursa wrapping around a tendon. tendonitis

What are the characteristics of smooth muscle?

involuntary, digestive tract, non-striated

What is the sarcoplasmic reticulum?

interconnecting tubules surrounding myofibril

What are the ligaments in the hip?

Ilio, pubo, ischiofemoral, ligamentum teres

What is anerobic ATP?

2 ATP, not so fast, glucose

What are fascicle made up of?

muscle fibers

What are the steps of message transmission at the neuromuscular junction

influx of calcium ions, vesicle formation around calcium ion and ACh, exocytosis of vesicle, ACh is released into synapse, ACh binds with receptor in sarcolemma of muscle, acetyl choline esterase is enzyme produced to destroy ACh

What is the triad?

2 terminal cisterns & 1 T tubule
