Part A – Muscle Anatomy–Fill in the blanks using the word bank.
(Endomysium, Epimysium, Muscle fiber, Myofibril, Perimysium, Tendon, Fascicle, Muscle, Sarcolemma, Sarcomere, Sarcoplasm, Myofilaments) 6 points
1 | The part of the Connective tissue that can connect muscle to bone | |
2 | A bundle of fascicles | |
3 | This connective tissue covers a muscle | |
4 | A discrete bundle of muscle cells | |
5 | Connective tissue that covers a fascicle | |
6 | Muscle cell is also called | |
7 | Thin connective tissue that covers a muscle cell | |
8 | Cell membrane of a muscle cell | |
9 | Long, filamentous organelle within a muscle cell that gives a banded appearance | |
10 | Includes actin and myosin | |
11 | Cytoplasm of a muscle cell | |
12 | Contractile unit of a muscle; The area between Z disks. |
- Fill in the blanks – Use the words from word-bank. 5 points
(Mitochondria, t-tubules, synaptic cleft, sarcomere, acetylcholine, sarcoplasmic reticulum, motor unit)
1 | The combination of the motor neuron and muscle fiber | |
2 | The space between the motor neuron and muscle fiber | |
3 | The neurotransmitter released at the neuromuscular junction used to carrythe signal across this gap. | |
4 | Part of the Sarcolemma that forms a tube deep into the muscle fiber to carry the signal. | |
5 | Organelle that releases calcium in response to the action potential |

- Number the events leading to a muscle contraction in the order they occur.5 points
Step # | Event |
Calcium is released from the S.R. as the action potential passes down the T-tubule | |
1 | A nerve impulse reaches the synapse |
Calcium allows the actin-myosin complex to connect, beginning the contraction process | |
Acetylcholine crosses the synaptic cleft and binds to the muscle cell, causing it to depolarize | |
Acetylcholine is broken down by acetylcholinesterase |
PART C – MUSCLE CONTRACTION
- Label the stages of muscle contraction.1 point
- Powerstroke occurs as ADP and P are released
- ATP is split to energize actin head
- If calcium is available, myosin and actin bond to form cross-bridges
- ATP bonds to actin and myosin breaking the crossbridge
- INDICATE WHAT SUBSTANCE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOLLOWING:3 points
(Lactic acid, Calcium, ATP, Creatine phosphate, Acetylcholine, Myoglobin)
A | Exposes the binding site allowing actin and myosin to bind and form a crossbridge. | |
B | This attaches to break the cross bridge and is later split to re-energize the myosin head. | |
C | This neurotransmitter causes an action potential on a muscle fiber leading to calcium release. | |
D | Special oxygen carrying protein found in muscle cells | |
E | Substance produced from pyruvic acid during anaerobic respiration that makes muscles burn. | |
F | Substance (often taken as a supplement) used to quickly replenish ATP suppliesduring strenuous exercise. |
PART D –EXERCISE AND MUSCLES. 3 points
1 | After strenuous exercise, a person breathes rapidly to replace the oxygen needed to get rid of lactic acid and restart aerobic respiration. This amount of oxygen is called the: | |
2 | Term that describes muscle fibers getting smaller due to disuse | |
3 | Muscles used to generate quick, powerful contractions but tire quickly arecalled: | |
4 | List an activity that uses this muscle type | |
5 | Muscles that have weaker contractions but more endurance are called: | |
6 | List an activity that uses this muscle type |
PART E – TYPES OF MUSCLE2 points
1 | Muscle type that is voluntary, striated, and attached to bone is called this. | |
2 | These muscles lack striations and are involuntary. | |
3 | Muscles that have striations, are involuntary, and only found in the heart | |
4 | The connecting junctions found only between cardiac muscle fibers, thathelp to propagate the contraction signal from one fiber to the next are called: |
PART F – MUSCLE MOVEMENTS 4 points
1 | Prime mover for forearm flexion | |
2 | Antagonist to forearm flexion | |
3 | Group of leg muscles responsible for extension | |
4 | Group of leg muscles responsible for flexion | |
5 | The origin for the biceps brachii is | |
6 | Insertion of biceps brachii is | |
7 | The origin for sternocleidomastoid is | |
8 | Insertion of sternocleidomastoid is |
