fast glycolytic fibers (white)

Fast fibers are large in diam- eter and contain densely packed myofibrils, large glycogen reserves, and relatively few mitochondria. Muscles dominated by fast fibers produce powerful contractions because the ten- sion produced by a muscle fiber is directly proportional to the number of myofibrils. However, fast fibers fatigue rapidly because their contractions use ATP in massive amounts, and they have relatively few mitochondria to generate ATP. As a result, prolonged activity is supported primarily by anaerobic metabolism.

why are there so many foramina and canals in the skull? what types of things are passing through them?

foramina and canals are abundant in the skull because of the brain. nerves and blood passes through them to deliver signals and oxygen/nutrients to the brain. (CNS)

bone lamellae

form concentric rings of bone tissue around the central canal

Coccyx

Ulna

from proximal to distal, it is made up of the olecranon (point of the elbow), the shaft, and the ulnar head. anterior surface of the proximal epiphysis, the trochlear notch of the ulna articulates with trochlea of the humerus at the elbow joint.

Fibula

extended at 0 degrees

generated the most tension because your sarcomeres aren't over stretched or overly shortened

what is the functioning of the periosteum? what bones cells line this cavity and what are their function?

it enables bones to grow in thickness, protects the bone, helps with fracture repair, helps nourish bone tissue, and serves as an attachment point for ligaments and tendons. osteogenic cells line the periosteum. they are undifferentiated cells that can divide to produce new cells.

Patella

kneecap. a large sesamoid bone that forms within the tendon of the quadriceps femoris, a group of muscles that straightens/extends the knee. the patellar ligament connects the apex of the patella to the tibia. the posterior surface has two concave facets (medial and lateral) that articulate with the condyles of the femur. cartilaginous at brith and ossifies as a person begins to walk

Synergist

muscle that aids a prime mover in a movement and helps prevent rotation

prime mover

muscle with the major responsibility for a certain movement

hyperextended at -90 degrees

muscles are overly stretched. created the least tension.

why are the lines alternating direction by 90 degrees in adjacent layers? how does this affect the strength of the bone?

orientation of the collagen fibers provides the bone with great tensile strength.

sesamoid bones example

protracts scapula

the metacarpal bones (in the palms), metatarsal bones (in the soles), and phalanges (in the fingers and toes) are much shorter than most ribs, and yet the bones in the hands and feet are classified as long bones and the ribs as flat bones. why do you think these bones are classified as they are.

ribs are thin and platelike where as hands and feet bones have a greater length than their width (and are extended)

Infraspinatus

rotates arm laterally

stretched muscle

sarcomeres are longer and have a smaller zone of overlap

shortened muscle

sarcomeres are short and have a larger zone of overlap

flexed at 90 degrees

sarcomeres were excessively shortened. not as much tension generated.

Tibia

shinbone. large medial bone of the leg. proximal to distal: condyles, shaft, and medial malleolus. condyles of tibia articulate with condyles of femur. the inferior surface of the tibia articulates with the proximal bone of the ankle. the medial malleolus supports this joint medially

Deltoid

shoulder

smooth muscle

single-unit muscle in walls of hollow visceral organs (other than the heart); multiunit muscle in intrinsic eye muscles, airways and large arteries. single, fusiform, uninucleate, no striations.

lacunae

small cavities which are positioned between the bone lamellae. osteocytes are located in the lacunae and give rise to cell processes that travel through narrow passageways called canaliculi. the processes of nearby cells form cell junctions with one another.

the bony orbit it formed by portions of 7 bones. list them.

sphenoid, ethmoid, lacrimal, frontal, zygomatic, maxilla, palatine

if bones were composed entirely of compact bone, muscles would have to contract with greater force to produce movements. Explain why.

spongy bone doesn't weigh as much as compact bone, making the overall weight lighter, so it moves more readily when pulled by muscles.

what is the only truly movable joint in the skull? why is this extensive movement beneficial?

temporomandibular joint. it allows us to chew and break down food when we eat.

length-tension relationship

the amount of tension that can be generated during a contraction is influenced by the size of the zone of overlap between thick and thin filaments when the muscle fiber is at rest. the zone of overlap is determined by the resting length of the sarcomeres

describe the arrangement of compact and spongy bone in a typical long bone.

the external layer of the long bone is solid compact bone. it is thicker where is surrounds the diaphysis but much thinner around each epiphysis. during bone development, the medullar cavity is filled with spongy bone and red bone marrow but as the bone matures, the bone is reabsorbed and the red bone marrow is converted to yellow bone marrow (which becomes a storage site for fat in adults). spongy bones predominates at the two epiphyses.

phalanges

the metacarpals articulate with the proximal phalanages, the finger bones. the first finger, known as the pollen, or thumb, has two phalanxes (proximal and distal). each of the other four fingers has three phalanges (proximal, middle, and distal)

bone is a connective tissue with a solid matrix with two main components. briefly describe the special qualities that each component gives to bone.

the two main components are the collagen fibers and the calcium phosphate salts. collagen fibers give bone strength and elasticity while calcium phosphate gives bone its hardness.

forearm (antebrachium)

the ulna and the radius are parallel long bones that support the forearm. in the anatomical position, the ulna lies medial to the radius. the interosseous membrane, a fibrous sheet, connects the lateral margin of the ulna to the radius.

on a skeleton, notice that the vertebral bodies become progressively larger from a superior to inferior direction. explain why.

the vertebral bodies on the inferior portion hold up most of the weight of everything superior to it, including whatever else adds to the weight (whatever you're holding/lifting/body fat)

Femur

thigh bone. longest and heaviest bone in the body. from proximal to distal: the femur head, the shaft, and the condyles. it articulates with the (acetabulum) hip bone at the hip joint and with the tibia of the leg at the knee joint.

flat bones

thin, platelike structures. this group includes the cranial bones.

Lumbar Vertebrae (L1-L5)

third set of 5 larger vertebrae, which forms the inward curve of the spine. in the lower back. secondary curve that balances the weight of the trunk over the lower limbs. this curve develops with the ability to stand.

cardiac muscle

walls of the heart. branching chains of cells; uni- or binucleate striations
