Naming Muscles
This characteristic of naming muscles is based on this, as seen in the temporalis muscle.
What is location?
The function of muscle that works with the skeletal system
What is movement
This protein makes up the thick filaments in skeletal muscle
What is skeletal muscle
This connective tissue surrounds a bundle of muscle fibers, and it is also the site where a motor neuron meets a muscle fiber
What is the perimysium
This protein makes up the thick filaments in skeletal muscle
What is myosin
The deltoid muscle is named based on this charaeristic
What is shape?
Muscles help stabilize these
What are joints
This muscle type is found in the walls of hollow organs and is involuntary and non-striated
What is smooth muscle
At the neuromuscular junction, this neurotransmitter is released to bind with receptors on the muscle fiber's membrane, leading to depolarization
What is acetylcholine
DAILY DOUBLE: Describe the breakdown of skeletal muscle from gross anatomy to microscopic anatomy
Skeletal muscle is organized from the whole muscle surrounded by epimysium, to fascicles wrapped in perimysium, to individual muscle fibers encased in endomysium, which contain myofibrils made of sarcomeres composed of actin and myosin proteins
The sternocleidomastoid muscle name is derived from its points of attachment. Name a point.
What is the sternum, clavicle, or mastoid process?
Your muscles make you shiver, creating this
What is heat
This type of muscle tissue is striated, involuntary, and found only in the heart
What is cardiac muscle
At the microscopic level, these two protein filaments interact during muscle contraction, triggered by signals from the neuromuscular junction
What are actin and myosin
This fascicle arrangement, seen in the orbicularis oris, forms what kind of pattern
What is circular
