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.  

 

  1. 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

  1. 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

 

  1. Label the stages of muscle contraction.1 point
  2. Powerstroke occurs as ADP and P are released
  3. ATP is split to energize actin head
  4. If calcium is available, myosin and actin bond to form cross-bridges
  5. ATP bonds to actin and myosin breaking the crossbridge

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  1. 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
