General Types of Muscle Contractions
that continue...
100
Synthesized in muscle cells and imparts the reddish brown color of skeletal muscle tissue
What is Myoglobin
100
Fiber remains unresponsive until a certain strength of stimulation
What is Muscle Threshold
100
One contraction after another
What is summation
100
The Shortening, Lengthening, and equal length change in force of muscles
What is Isotonic, Eccentric, and Isometric
100
Muscles that run vertically, horizonatally, and in slanting directions
What are rectus, transverse, and oblique muscles
200
When muscles don't receive enough oxygen, and starts creating lactic acid
What is oxygen debt
200
Single Muscle Contraction
What is a Twitch
200
Involuntary muscle contraction
What is tertiary
200
Producing an Action
What is a Prime Mover
200
A protein that binds calcium and is involved in regulationg a variety of activities in cells
What is Calmodulin
300
Running out of ATP in your nerves instead of the muscles
How are skeletal muscles contractions turned off
300
Time between stimulation and beginning of contraction
What is the latent period
300
No ATP to allow muscle to relax
What is Rigor Mortis
300
Contracts and assist prime movers
What is a Synergists
300
Contractions with wave like motions
What is Peristalsis
400
When your entire body, muscles, are contracted
What is tonus
400
the Immoveable end of a muscle
What is an Origin
400
Structure that connects a muscle to a bone
What is a tendon
400
Also known as Prime Movers
What is an Agonist
400
Transmitter released from the axons of some nerve fibers
What is norepinephrine
500
Inhibits the body to breakdown ATP -> ADP and restrict the amount of useable energy available to the muscles
Why large quantities of lactic acid inhibit skeletal contraction
500
The moveable end of a muscle
What is an Insertion
500
The Biggest protein known to exist
What is Titin
500
resist a prime movers action
What is a antagonist
500
Polypeptide hormone made of amino acids; causes increased contraction during labor
What is oxytocin
