functional characteristics of muscle tissue?
excitabilitty,contractility,extensibility,
elasticity
/4 important function of body
movement, maintaines stabilizing joints, generates heates
4 types of muscle tisse
skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, smooth muscle
muscle fibers?
skeletal and smooth smooth muscle cells elongated
muscle
empysium;bloodvessel and nerve fibers and ct wrappings
muscle fiber
elongated multinucleate cell; banded appearance;edomysium
fascicle
perimysium,segregated from muscle by ct sheath
myofibril
rodlike contractile element;composed of sarcomeres arranged end to end;adjacent myofibrils
sarcomere
contractile unit compsed of myofilaments made of contracticle proteins
myofilament
thick and thin contain myosin
endomysium
each muscle fiber surounded by this fine sheat of ct made of aerolar and reticulr fibers
permyisum/fasciles
in skeletal muscle endomysium muscle fiber grouped in fasicles each fasicile is surrouned by fibrous ct called perimysium
EPIMYSIUM
dense regular ct surrounds whole muscle
direct foesy attachments
epimysium of muscle is fued to periosteum of bone of cartilage
indirect fleshy attachments
muscle's ct wrappings extend beyond the muscle like a rope
tendon/aponeurosis
anchors muscle to ct covering sketele element
SACROLEMMA
plasma membrane of skeletal muscle fiber
sacr0plasm
muscle fiber contains large amounts og glysomes and myoglobin
myoglobin
red pigment stores oxygen in sacroplasm
myosin
thick filaments are composed of;link thin filaments together
actin
thin filaments composed of;
triads
succusive grouping of t tubule and encircle the sacrolemma
topomyosin
rod shape protein; around actin;block myosin binding sites on actin so myosin heads cannot bind to thin filaments
toponin
protein filament three polypeptide
elastic filament
composed of titin; holds thick filaments in place and assisting muscle cells to spring back into shape
dystrophin
strucural protein that links think filaments to integral proteins of sacrolemma
sacroplasmic recticulum
elaborate smooth ER has terminal cisternae;regulates interacellular levels of ionic calcium;stores and released calicum on demand
triad relationships
act as voltage sensors and form channels through
t tubules
elongated tube in sacrolemma
contraction of filaments?
activation of myosin's cross bridges
when does contraction end?
cross bridges become inactive and tension declines inducing relaxtion
when does shortening occur in filaments?
tension generated by cross bridges on thin filamens exceeds the forces opposing shortening
sliding filament theory of contraction
during contraction thin filaments slide past thick ones so actin and myosin filaments overlap to greater degree
neroumuscular junction
when axon of motorn neuron divides into branches
synaptic cleft
gel like cellular substance rich in glycoproteins and collagen fibers
synaptic vesicles
small membranous sac with acetylcholine
depolarzation
transient change in membrane potential occurs suck that interior of sacrolemma becomes less negative
refractory period
cell cannot be stimulated again until repolarization is complete
excitation contraction coupling
sequence of events which transmission of action potential along sarcolemma leads to sliding of myofilaments
muscle fiber contraction steps
1 cross bridge
2 power stroke
3cross bridge detachement
4cocking of myosin head
motor unit?
motor neuron and all muscle fibers it supplies
graded muscle response
varations of muscle movement which can be by stimulation and stimulus
muscle twitch?
response of motor unit to single action potential of a motor neuron
the three phases of a twich are?
latent pierod, period of contraction, period of relaxtion
isotonic contractions
muscle length changes tenstion remains constant
concentric contractions
muscle shortens
eccentric contractions
generates force as it lengthens used for coordination
isometric contractions
build up muscle's peak producing capacity
aerobic respiration
molecules are broken and energy realeased to make ATP
aerobic endurance
length of time muscle continues to contract using aerobic pathways
anaerobic threshold
point which muscle metabolism converts to anaerobic glycolysis
muscle fatigue
inability to contract flesh can perform but human is tired
internal tensions
stretches series elastic components
external tension
transfer tension helps muscle return to length
length tension relationship
in sacromere occurs muscle is slightly stretched think and thick filaments overlap
6 necessary life functions
maintaining boundaries movement resposiveness digestion reproduction
survival needs
oxygen water atmospheric pressure nutrients
receptor?
type of sensor monitos environement and respons to changes
control center?
determins set pointand course of action
negative feedback
output shut off original stimulus or reduces intensity
postive feedback
reslut or response enhances original stimulus so activity is accelerated
axial part
head neck trunk
appendicular part
limbs attached to body's axis

away from head end or toward lower part of structure of body
ventral
toward or at the back of body
medial
toward or at midleline of body
intermediate
between a more medial and more lateral structure
proximal
closer to orgin of body part or point of attachment of a llimb to body trunk
distal
farther from the orgin of a body part or point of attachment of a limb to body trunk
