Q

Movement

What does Skeletal, Cardiac, and Smooth muscle contribute to movement?

A

All Movement is from muscle contractions

Skeletal muscles allow for manipulation and locomotion

Cardiac and Smooth muscle are responsibile for movement of blood through circulatory system.

36
Q

What is a sarcomere?

A

Smallest functional unit of a muscle cell

37
Q

A band

A

Thick filimants laying side by side

Myosin

38
Q

I band

A

Short Thin light colored band

Actin

Does not reach into theh Z-disk

39
Q

Z bands

A

connected to the sarcolemma by the cytoskeleton

Z lines = boundries of sarcomere

40
Q

Length of a sarcomere

A

1 Zband to the next

41
Q

What causes a muscle to relax?

A

Calcium ion is returned to sarcoplasmic retixulum and sarcomere relaxes

42
Q

Energy Source for Muscle Contraction

A

ATP

glucose can be broken down via chemical reactions and formed into ATP for use.

43
Q

Aerobic Respiration yields ___ ATP

A

38 ATP but 2 are needed for start up

44
Q

Aerobic Respiration uses ___

A

O2

45
Q

Aerobic Respiration Creates

A

Large amounts of ATP, H20, and CO2

46
Q

Anerobic Respiration yield ____ ATP

A

4 but 2 are required for start up

47
Q

Anerobic Respiration

A

once muscles have been contractiong vigerously for a long time and there is a deficency of O2 results and aerobic pathway can no longer produce enough ATP for muscle use

48
Q

Creatine Phosphate

A

Stored in muscle tissue in large amounts,
Resynthasizes ADP into ATP
CP reserves quickly depleted but restored during rest

49
Q

Muscle Fatigue Causes and defination

A

Glycogen in muscle is depleted
Production of ATP can’t keep up with ATPase (ATP DEFICIENCY NOT ABSENCE)

Physiological inability to retract

50
Q

Oxygen Debt

A

Amount of oxygen required to provide restoration to the normal state.

51
Q

What is required for a muscle to return to rest?

A

Oxygen stores must be replenished
Glycogen stores must be replaces
Creatine Pjosphate must be Replenished
Liver Must Reconver Lactic Acid back into Glucose or Glycogen

52
Q

How do you replenish oxygen debt?

A

Via Rapid Deep breathing after strenous activity has ended. Breathing is automatically triggered by the presence of lactic acid in the body.

53
Q

Muscle Twitch

A

Response of a muscle to a stimulus

strong or weak depending on the number of motor units activated

54
Q

Motor Unit

A

single motor neuron from the brain/spinal chord will control a group of muscles

55
Q

All or None Principle

A

Fiber will either contract to its greatest extent or not at all

56
Q

The fewer the number of fibers in a motor unit

A

the finer the control of movement

57
Q

Latent Period

A

Time before stimulus occurs

58
Q

Relaxation lasts until

A

the actual contraction

When Tension is at its highest point

59
Q

Contraction

A

Tension at highest point

60
Q

Q

Time Line of Rigamortis

A

3-4 hrs after deatch: Muscles begin to tighten

Peaks at 12 hours

Disappates 48-60 hours after death
