1what are the 3 muscle tissues
skeletal muscle. cardiac muscle. smooth muscle.
2what is skeletal muscle
voluntary striated. forms body flesh attached to the bone
3what is cardiac muscle
involuntarily striated. forms wall of heart
4what is smooth muscle
involuntary non striated. wall of blood vessels, stomach
5what is striated
having long thin lines, marks, or strips of colour
6what is voluntary
the fibre will contract when stimulated
7what are the 3 anatomical planes
frontal (coronal). horizontal (or transverse). sagittal
8what is the frontal plane
separates the body into front and back (anterior and posterior) parts
9what is the horizontal plane
separates the body into upper and lower (superior and inferior) parts
10what is sagittal plane
separates body into right and left parts. the midsagittal or median is exactly in the centre of the body
11what are the 4 functions of the skeletal system
framework and support- attachmentsmfor muscles. protection- delicate internal organs. movement- system of bones, joints and muscles. storage- minerals, energy, tissues that form blood cells
12what is the axial skeleton
forms core or axis of the body
13what is the appendicular skeleton
consists of girdles and limbs
14what are the 4 types of bone
long bones- longer than their width eg femur. short bones are equal width and length eg. carpal. flat bones- flat thin bones, found where protection is needed and also where a broad surface is required for the attachment of muscles eg. skull bones. irregular bones- all the bones with complex shapes that dont fit into the above categories. eg. vertebrae
15what are the 5 bones in the axial skeleton
skull (the head). vertebral column (spine). sternum (breast bone). the rubs. the hyoid bone (small bone in neck below mandible)
16what are the 8 upper limb bones of the appendicular skeleton
clavicle (collar bone). scapular (shoulder bone). humerus (upper arm bone). radius (forearm-lateral). ulna (forearm-medial). carpals (wrist). metacarpals (palm). phalanges (fingers).
17what are the lower limb bones of the appendicular skeleton 8
innominate/pelvic bone (hip bone). femur (thigh bone). patella (knee cap). tibia (lower leg-medial). fibula (lower leg-lateral). tarsals (ankle). metatarsels (foot). phalanges (toes)
18what is an axis
it is always at right angles to the plane of movement
19what are the 3 axes of movement
sagittal- from back to front. coronal/frontal- from side to side. vertical- straight up and down
20anterior or ventral
a surface that faces forwards- front of body
21posterior

22medial
surface that is nearer to the midline than another
23lateral
surface that is further away from the midline than another
24proximaldeepdeppdee

25distal
structure that is further away from the origin (away from the heart)
26superficial
structure nearer th surface than others
27deep
structure that lies beneath others
28superior

29inferior
strcuture lower than others (towards the feet)
30flexion
increasing angle with frontal plane (bending elbow)
31extension
decreasing angle with frontal angle (making arm straight)
32abduction
moving away from sagittal plane
33adduction
moving toward the sagittal plane
34protraction
moving forward along a surface (jutting chin forwards)
35retraction
moving backward along a surface (making double chin)
36elevation
raising/lifting a structure (bringing shoulders up)
37depression
lowering/dropping a structure (drop shoulders)
38medial rotaton
inward movement around an axis (put hand on chest)
39lateral rotation
outward movement aeound an axis (move arm away from body -from chest away)
40pronation
turn hand backward or downwards
41supination
turn hand forward or upward
42opposition
bringing tips of fingers and thumb together as in picking something up
43what is the connective tissue around each fibre called
endomysium
44what is the connective tissuee around each bundle is called
the perimysium
45the connective tissue around the muscle is called
epimysium
46what are muscles
form the body flesh. functions are to produce movement, to maintain posture and to produce body heat
47what are muscle fibres
long, thin multi nucleate cells
48two main types of muscle fibre
type 1 (red fibres). type 2 (white fibres)
49what are type 1 (red fibres)
slow twitch fibres which contract slowly but repeatedly over a long period of time. used for endurance activities. utilize energy system. eg. longs runs utilize the anaerobic (short fast high intensity exercise) energy system
50what are the 6 muscle shapes
strap fusiform unipennatd bipennate multipennate
51what are tendons
tough cord like structures of connective tissue which attach to bones
52what are aponeuroses
flat sheets of connective tissue which attach muscles along the length of the bone
53what is muscle tonewhat are
state of partial contraction or tension in the muscles even at rest
54what is shift system
as different motor units are stimulated different muscle fibres contract alternatively to prevent fatigue
55whatcare muscle spindles what is
relay information about the amount of stretch in the body
56what are hypotonic muscles
lower tome muscle or flaccid
57what are hypertonic muscles
higher tone than normal. fibres are over contracted amd rigid. they are called spastic muscles
58what is energy
ability/capacity to perform work
59how is energy provided
food
60how is energy produced
food used to manufacture ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
61what does muscles convert chemical energy into
mechanical energy
62what are the three energy systems
alactic ATP PC system (anaerobic). lactic acid system (anaerobic glycolysis). aerobic (oxygen) system (aerobic glycolysis)
63most rapid source of energy. uses ATP stored in muscles cells. muscle contracts and immediate energy is obtained from the ATP for 5-6 seconds. this system is used for short duration activities such as sprinting. amount of energy is limited due to stored sources of ATP and PC. no oxygen used so its anaerobic process
64what is lactic acid system (anaerobic glycolysis)
when activity continues after all PC is broken down ATP is resynthesized from glycogen. carbohydrate (sugars and starch) converted to glycogen and stored in mucles cells and liver. oxygen not used. glycogen is borken down into pyruvic acid and then lactic acid. not very effective. produces lactic acid, the build up of which causes muscle fatigue. used in high intensity activites eg 400m run.
65what is the aerobic system
requires continuous supply of oxygen. glycogen in broken down through a series of complicated reactions in the mitochondria in the cells. glycogen broken down into pyruvic acid. most effective system. provides energy for prolonged endurance activites without producing fatigueing products. main sources carbs and fats. eg jogging.
66what is oxygen debt
the amount of oxygen that is taken in during recovery above what is normally consumed
67what is oxygen needed for after exercising
oxygen needs to metabolize the lactic acid after amd replenish ATP, phosphocreatin and gylcogen. it is also required by the blood and lungs to restore the body systems to their normal state. increase in lactic acid and carbon dioxide in the blood stimulates the respiratory system and breathing becomes faster and deeper.
68what is muscle fatigue
the inability of a muscle to continue contraction
69what happens with muscle fatigueis delayed
it becomes weaker until it stops completely as their is not enough energy. during fast intense exercise believed to be caused by lactic acid build up. during slow, low intensity exercise caused by a depletion in glycogen and dehydration
70what are the 2 types of muscle soreness
acute muscle soreness. delayed muscle soreness.
71what is acute muscle soreness
during or immediately after exercise. due to insufficient blood supply to contracting muscles. increased tension in muscle stops blood flow and lactic acid and other waste products build up and stimulate pain receptors in the muscle. this pain stops quickly when exercise stops amd blood flow returns to normal.
72what is delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS)
delayed for 24-48hrs. this damage may include minor tears of muscle fibres. damage to connective tissue components or damage to tendons and ligaments from over stretching.
73how can you prevent muscle soreness
stretching warm muscles preparing them for activity and cooling them down afterwards can help prevent soreness
74what are the 3 types of muscle contractions
isotonic contraction. isometric contraction. isokinetic contraction
75what is isotonic contraction
equal tone. change in length throughout movement- shorter (concentric)/longer (eccentric).
76what is isometric contraction
equal length. no change in the length of the muscle but increase in the tone. static work.
77what is isokinetic contraction
the muscular contraction that accompanies ckmstant velocity limb movements around a joint
78factors that affect flexibility
age training sex body temp strength training joint structure
