shorter

type of movement occurs when we lift our arms away from our body in a jumping jack or when making a snow angel

abduction

type of movement means to move toward the median plane

adduction

slightly moving joints

ampiarthroses

bicep

The skull is a group of bones that protect the -

brain

type of muscle is involuntarily controlled and is found in the heart and cause it to beat and pump blood?

cardiac

types (3) of muscle in the muscular system?

cardiac , smooth, skeletal

______________________ is a form of connective tissue found in the skeletal system. It's actually elastic, and not hard or rigid like bones. It provides cushioning between joints (shock absorber) and can be found in the nose, ears, between the ribcage, and other locations in the body.

cartilage

isometric

causes no change in length

movement occurs when muscle ? (do what)

contract

Muscles work together by -

contracting & extending

muscles used for inhalation

diaphragm

freely moving joints

diarthroses

The antagonists of the quadriceps, located in the posterior thigh is:

hamstrings

only moves in one direction allows angular movements

hinge

Muscles found in the heart are an example of

involuntaryD

causes a change in length of the muscles

isotonic

An area where two bones meet is known as a -

joint

the more movable the joint is the ? less or more stable it is ?

less stable

________ are short bands of tough, yet flexible, dense connective tissue that can connect bones and stabilize joints.

ligaments

insertion

movable bone during a muscle contraction

The skeletal system works together with the ________________ system to allow the body to move, run, walk, etc.

muscular

Do Smooth muscles move bones

no

The muscular system works closely with several systems, but it teams up with the _______________ to enable the body to move. Muscles contract and cause this system to move.

skeletal

type of muscle is connected to the bones of the skeleton?

skeletal

Which type of muscle is involuntarily controlled, are found in the walls of the digestive system and help pass food materials through the body and help other organs to function properly?

smooth

Bones are made up of two types of specialized osseous tissue. Identify the two correct types

spongy & compact

type of movement allows you to turn your arms backward like when doing the macarena dance and flip your palms over

supination

cranial bones of the skull are immovable held together by collagen fibers how would these joints be classified functionally and structurally

synarthroses (functionally) & fibrous (structurally)

muscles that help the prime mover

synergist

Muscles connect to bones using -

tendons

What connective tissue is used to attach bones to muscles?

tendons

connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone

tendons

origin

yes

can bones repair themselves

yes

can bones repair themselves ?

yes

Muscles are composed of -

cells

type of movement allows us to move our arms in a circle (like a back stroke)

circumduction

What is the purpose of the role of the muscular system?

enable movement of the body

the correct connective tissue that wraps around the entire outside of the muscle

epimysium

Which bone cell is critical in the regeneration of bone through bone remodeling by absorbing bone tissue wherever it is not needed or is degenerating?

osteoclast

connective tissue that wraps around each fascicle.

perimysium

Allow rotation as well as twisting movements back and forth

pivot

muscles most responsible for producing a certain movement

prime mover

Along with enabling the body to move, the muscular system also -

produces heat and helps with posture

The skeletal system _____________________ vital internal organs.

protects

the purpose or role of the skeletal system?

provide shape and support for the body and protect organs

This is the proximal bone that forms part of the wrist joint in the upper limb
