Anatomy 1
These four muscles make up the Rotator Cuff.
What are the Suprasinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, and Subscapularis?
These are the 5 regions of the spinal column.
What are Cervical, Thoracic, Lumbar, Sacral and Coccyx?
This metabolic pathway converts glucose (C6H12O2) into pyruvate. The free energy released in this process is used to form the energy molecules ATP and NADH.
What is Glycolysis?
Cardiac Output is the result of what two variables.
What are Stroke Volume and Heart-rate.
This physiological law states that bone in a healthy person or animal will adapt to the loads under which it is placed.
What is Wolff's Law?
This highly coveted muscle runs from the Xiphoid process and cartilage of ribs 5-7 to the Pubic crest on each side.
What is the Rectus Abdominis?
These are the supporting cells of the Nervous system.
What are neuroglia?
Oxygenated blood returns to the heart via this structure.
What is the pulmonary vein?
Ventilation increases as a linear function of oxygen uptake up to a point known as this.
What is the ventilatory threshold?
What are Spongy and Compact?
This muscle originates from the posterior half of the Iliac Crest and ilio-lumbar ligament and attaches to the 12th rib and transverse processes of L1-L4 Vertebra.
What is the Quadratus Laborum (QL)?
These are the conducting cells of the Nervous System.
What are Neurons?
The heart is surrounded by this serious membrane.
What is the pericardial sac?
The muscle Contraction cycle can continue as long as these two molecules are present.
What are Calcium and ATP?
These compounds are Proton donors.
What are Acids?
These are the structural units of skeletal muscle.
These two muscles in addition to the Biceps Femoris make up the hamstrings.
What are the semitendinosus and semimembranosus?
These receptors are sensitive to changes in arterial pressure.
What are baroreceptors?
This is the extra oxygen necessary to return the body to its resting state following strenuous activity.
What is Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption or oxygen debt?
These are the result of homeostatic imbalances.
What are diseases?
The thumb is the only location in the body to contain this type of joint.
What is a saddle joint?
This is the muscle responsible for the ability to smile.
What is the Zygomaticus Major?
These are the cells of the pancreatic islets responsible for the production of insulin.
This phosphotransferase enzyme catalyzes the interconversion of adenine nucleotides (ATP, ADP, and AMP).
What is Adenylate kinase (also known as ADK or myokinase)?
Gaps in the myelin sheath are referred to as this.
What are Nodes of Ranvier?
