pain results from stimulation of nociceptors in visceral organs
What is referred pain?
instance of visceral pain where the pain is felt in or just deep to the skin that overlies the stimulated organ or in a surface area far from the stimulated organ

What is the point of origin?
point of attachment where muscle does not move
What is the point of insertion?
point of attachment where muscle moves
Why are skeletal muscles multi-nucleated?
composed of many myoblasts which all have one nucleus
What is so special about satellite cells in skeletal muscles?
they are underdeveloped muscle cells which can grow into a full blown muscle cell
True or False:
Skeletal muscles have a lot of satellite cells
False
What happens when a muscle is damaged?
a scar forms on the muscle and that part cannot contract properly thus limiting it's ability
What is the protein that makes up thick filament?
myosin
What is the protein that makes up thin filament?
actin
What is the functional unite of a muscle fiber?
sarcomere
What is found in the I band?
Only actin
What is found in the A band?
the whole length of the myosin
What is found in the H zone?
only myosin
What are the three types of proteins that make up myofibrils?
contractile proteins, regulatory proteins, and structural proteins
What are contractile proteins?
myosin and actin
What are regulatory proteins?
troponin and tropomyosin
What protein holds the tropomysoin in place?
troponin
What protein will move tropomyosin when calcium is present?
troponin
What is titin?
elastic spring that helps stabilize and return the thick filament to its original length
What protein forms the m-line?
