CT that surrounds each muscle fiber (cell)
Structure of muscle fiber
Myrofibrils- bundles of myofiliaments.
Neuromuscular Junction (NMJ)
Area where nerve approaches but doesnt touch the muscle to cause contraction of the muscle. (Study page)
Function of Muscle
contraction-movement
smooth-movement of blood, food, sperm.
cardiac- movement of blood

Thermogenesis
generation of heat
Atp->ADP->P->energy (work and heat)
Neurons
Nerve cells
Neuroglia
Support cells for the neurons
Function of Neuroglia
Generate and conduct electrical impulses to the other cells- activation of functions of organs.

the one muscle in a group of muscles that produces the most forceful movement
Synergist
help agonist
Antagonist
opposes the agonist & synergist
Fasicles
The bundles that muscle fibers are organized into
Fascia
CT enveloping, surrounding, and seperating muscles.
Function of Abdominal Muscle
compress and hold abdominal organs in place- help with lifting heavy objects during valsalva.
Rotator Cuff
4 muscles that stabilize shoulder by limiting the movement of that joint.
*Secures the head of the humerous within the glenoid fossa*
Muscles of the Forearm
Anterior- Flexion (Medial Epicondyle)
Posterior- Extension (lateral epicondyle)
Lateral Epicondylitis
Tennis Elbow
Muscles that Move the Hip Joint
Anterior- Flexion of the hip joint (Psoas Major & Illiacus)
Posterior- Extension of the hip joint (gluteus maximus)
Lateral Muscle- Abduction of hip joint (tensor fascia latae
Medial Muscles- adduction of
hip joint (gracilis and adductor group)
Posterior Hip Muscle (Gluteus Maximus)
Able to lift entire weight of the body
Lateral Hip Muscle (Tensor fasciae latae)
Allows knees to lock into place
Medial Hip Muscles (Gracilis)
Forces knees together
Muscles that move knee joint
Anterior- extension (sartorious & quadriceps)
Posterior- Flexion (Biceps femoris, smitendinosis, & seminmranosos)
Lateral- Abduction (Tensor Faciae Latae)
Function of Cardiovascular System
1-) Distributes nutrients, oxygen, and hormones to all cells in the body.
2-) Carries away metabolic wastes to the kidneys for excretion (urine)
CV System consists of five components
1- Blood
2- Heart
3- Arteries (arterioles)
4- Veins (venuoles)
5- Capillaries
Vein
Vessel that returns blood to the heart
Capillaries
Connect arteries to veins
Arteries
Carries blood away from the heart
Capillaries (2)
Site of metabolic exchange, cells of body and blood stream.
Males have how many liters of blood (average)?
5-6
Females have how many liters of blood average?
4-5
Plasma is how much of the total composition of blood?
55% of total blood volume
Electrolytes
sodium, chloride, and calcium
Leaky Valve
Heart Murmur
How many valves of the heart?
4 valves
How many atrioventricular valves?
2
How many semilunar valves?
Located where?
2-located in roof of ventricles
What are cusps?
white sheets of connective tissue. In the valves.
Atrioventricular Valves (Right)
Between right atrium and right ventricle- tricuspid valve
Atrioventricular Valves (Left)
Between left atrium and left ventricle- bicuspid valve
Prolapsed Valve
The tendinae attached to cusps breaks...causes death in two mintues.
Pulmonary Semilunar Valve
right ventricle contracts forces blood through valve to pulmonary trunk
Aorta Semilunar Valve
left ventricle contracts forces blood to aorta through this valve
Systole vs. Diastole
contract vs. extract
Where does heart get the O2 to supply it?
Coronary Arteries-not the blood flowing through it.
Atherosclerosis
accumalation of fat on the inner walls of the arteries
Angina
when the coronary arteries become partially blocked...causes pain
Myocardial Infarction
When coronary arteries become significantly blocked.
Formed Elements make up what percent of blood?
45% of blood
Red Blood Cells (rbc)
*No nucleus
*Thin middle and thicker outer region
*99.9% of all blood cells
*only cell in the body w/o a nucleus
Hemoglobin
*Single Protein
* 95% of the RBC
*280 million molecules of Hb in each RBC
*260 million in each drop
White Blood Cells
*.1% of all blood cells (1 in 1000)
* Do have a nucleus
*Bacterial Infection WBC count increases
*Slightly larger than RBC's
Functions of White Blood Cells.
*Engulf and destroy pathogens (bacteria)
*Suppress inflamation
*Fight parasitic infections
*Produce antibodies and provide immunity.
Platelets
*Not cells
*involved in blood clotting
*fragements of blood cells.
Pericardium
A sac that covers and surrounds the heart
Cardiac Tamponade
innability of heart to recieve blood because of fluid build up in the pericardium cavity.
3 Layers of Arteries and Veins
1- Tunica Externa
2- Tunica Media
3- Tunica Intima
Tunica Externa
Comprised of connective tissue
Tunica Media
Comprised of smooth muscle, determines diameter of blood vessel
Tunica Intima
Single layer of epithelial cells called endothelial cells- build up of fats
Endothelial Cells
Sometimes attract cholesterol causing atherosclerosis.
