Myogenic activity

Vague nerve provides PNS outflow

To the heart and slows heart rate

The adrenal medulla secretes epinephrine and increases __________ levels to increase heart rate

Calcium

Thick filaments in the sarcomere

Myosin

Thin filament in a sarcomere is

Actin

2 proteins that act along with actin

Troponin and tropomyosin

Z-line

The boundaries of the sarcomere

M-Line

Middle of the sarcomere

I-Band

Only the thing filaments (actin)

H-band

Only thick filaments (myosin)

A-band

ALL of the thick filaments and the overlapping thin filament

Sarcomeres are attached to the end of _________, which are surrounded by the ____________

Myofibrils; sarcoplasmic reticulum

Sarcoplamsic reticulum is encased in the __________

Sarcolemma

Endochondral ossification

Hardening of cartilage into long bone

Intramembranous ossification

Undifferentiated embryonic connective tissue that transforms into bone (ie baby’s skull)

Synovium secretes

Synovial fluid

Muscle contraction path

Release of Ach from motor neuron-> sarcolemma Ach receptors->depolarization->T-tubules-> release of Ca2+ from SR->binds to troponin->tropomyosin shifts->myosin binds

ATP is needed flr

Releasing myosin from actin

ADP + Pi responsible for

Power stroke (contraction)

Acetylcholine is degrades by

Acetylcholinesterase: it stops action potentials and repolarizes

Tetanus

Entire muscle undergoes rapid simple twitch until a muscle can’t relax

Axial skeleton

Provides central framework (skull, vertebrae, rib cage, chest)

Appendicular skeleton

Limbs

Osteoblasts

Build up bone/release calcium

Osteoclasts

Chew/resorb bone

Haversian canals

Vertical/parallel channels

Volksmann canals

Perpendicular/transverse

Sarcolemma

Basically the plasma membrane of muscles; it’s encased in endomysium

Muscle fibers divided longitudinally into subunits known as

Myofibrils
