Hormone production by the bones, which functions in?
Osteocalcin, protects against obesity
Bending your head back until it hurts, which can occur during whiplash, is an example of
Hyperextension
Relays the action potential to the sarcoplasmic reticulum
What are the T-tubules?
What occurs during the Latent period of muscle contraction?
All the events of excitation-contraction coupling; no muscle tension
This type of joint is not fused until after age 5 in the skull
What are sutures?
The main trigger for release of parathyroid hormone
Low calcium levels in the blood
The opposite of Pronation
Supination
K+ exiting the cell
What is repolarization?
This Links the thin filaments to proteins of sarcolemma
What is Dystrophin?
It reduces friction where ligaments, muscles, skin, tendons, or bones rub together
What is Bursae?
Chondrocytes deteriorating and leaving long spicules of calcified cartilage at epiphysis-diaphysis junction, which are eroded by the osteoclasts
What is the Ossification zone?
This type of joint is connected by ligaments (bands of fibrous tissue), such as between the tibia and fibula
Syndesmosis
Calcium ions in the sarcoplasmic reticulum will bind to
What is troponin?
This membrane surrounds the entire muscle from the outside
What is the Epimysium?
The structure in skeletal muscle cells functions in calcium storage
What is the sarcoplasmic reticulum?
These cells play a role in Intramembranous Ossification of bone
Fibrocartilage found between the vertebrae is an example of which type of joint
Symphyses
The Enzyme which breaks down Acetylcholine to be recycled
What is Acetylcholinesterase?
Medication which blocks calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum will result in
Tropomyosin will keep blocking the site on actin for myosin to bind to
Macrophages are derived from the same hematopoietic stem cells as are:
Osteoclasts
These cells are involved in responding to and communicating mechanical stimuli to other cells so bone remodeling can occur
What are osteocytes?
This type of joint is where bones are united by hyaline cartilage
Synchondroses
This results in no contraction of the muscle
A severed (cut) nerve
Na channels open, Na channels close, K channels open, K channels close
What is an action potential?
No ATP is available to release attached actin and myosin molecules
What is rigor mortis?
