100
The tissue surrounding an individual muscle fiber
What is the endomysium
100
The region that is shown below: 
What is the sarcomere
100

What is the Vertebral Column
100
These two bones make up the antecubital region of the arm
What are the radius and ulna
200

What is the Brachioradialis
200
This muscle's action is pronation of the forearm.
What is the Pronator Teres
200
The tissue surrounding a group of muscle fibers
What is the perimysium
200
These two myofilaments are the main protein filaments responsible for muscle contraction
What are myosin and actin
200
A neuron and all the muscle cells it stimulates make up this
What is a motor unit
200
The bone indicated by the I in the diagram.
What is the zygomatic bone
200
This bone connects the appendicular skeleton to the axial skeleton in the diagram below. 
What is the clavicle
300
This is the muscle indicated by the letter D. in the image above
What is the rectus abdominis
300
This posterior muscle of the forearm extends and abducts the wrist
What is the Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus
300
The epimysium is a layer of connective tissue that surrounds the muscle and forms ___________ which connect the muscles to the bones.
What are tendons
300
This is the neurotransmitter that is released from the axon terminal into the synaptic cleft in a neuromuscular junction.
What is acetylcholine
300
single contractions of muscle fibers caused by single threshold stimulus; rare
What is twitch
300
The part of the sternum indicated by number 2 in the diagram. 
What is the manubrium
300
The names given to the three bones that make up the pelvic bone. 
What are the illium, ischium and the pubic bones
400
These THREE muscles are indicated by the letters B, C and D in the image above.
What are the Rectus Femoris, Vastus Lateralis and the Vastus Medialis
400
These two muscles work to elevate the mandible. (chewing)
What are the masseter and the temporalis muscles
400
Muscle fibers are made up of groups of these smaller pieces
What are myofibrils
400
In order for myosin to be able to reach out and attach to actin this molecule must be broken down into ADP + P. This energizes the myosin heads.
What is ATP
400
The minimal level of stimulation required to cause a muscle fiber to contract.
What is the threshold stimulus
400
Name all of the four sutures of the cranium
What are the lambdoidal suture, the saggital suture, coronal suture and the squamous suture
400
This joint is the area where the bones of the pelvis connect to the bones of the spine.

500
These two muscles are indicated by the letters F and G in the diagram.

500
These ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and help to move tropomyosin and troponin off of the actin myofilament.
What is Calcium or Ca2+
