The quadriceps femoris is composed of three "vastus" muscles and the ________.

rectus femoris

The type of joint between the carpal and the first metacarpal is a ________ joint.

saddle

Which cells help repair injured skeletal muscle fibers and allow regeneration of dead skeletal muscle?

satellite cells

The ________ is known as the boxer muscle.

serratus anterior

Only ________ muscle cells are always multinucleated.

skeletal

T/F: A ball-and-socket joint is a multiaxial joint.

true

T/F: A contraction in which the muscle does not shorten but its tension increases is called isometric contraction.

true

T/F: A person who has been diagnosed with a sprained ankle has an injury to the ligaments that attach to that joint.

true

T/F: A resting potential is caused by a difference in the concentration of certain ions inside and outside the cell.

true

T/F: Although there are no sarcomeres, smooth muscle still possesses thick and thin filaments.

true

T/F: An increase in the calcium ion level in the sarcoplasm starts the sliding of the thin filaments. When the level of calcium ions declines, sliding stops.

true

T/F: Bending of the tip of the finger exhibits flexion.

true

T/F: Cardiac muscle has a limited regenerative capacity.

true

T/F: Cells of unitary smooth muscle are found in the longitudinal and circular muscle layers of the intestine.

true

T/F: Deep muscles of the thorax promote movements for breathing.

true

T/F: Eccentric contractions are more forceful than concentric contractions.

true

T/F: Electromyography is the recording and interpretation of graphic records of the electrical activity of contracting muscles.

true

T/F: Flexion of the ankle so that the superior aspect of the foot approaches the shin is called dorsiflexion.

true

T/F: In order to propel food down to the esophagus, the pharyngeal constrictor muscles are used.

true

T/F: Most superficial thorax muscles are extrinsic shoulder muscles.

true

T/F: Movement at the hip joint does not have as wide a range of motion as at the shoulder joint

true

T/F: Moving a limb so that it describes a cone in space is called circumduction.

true

T/F: Muscle cells store more creatine phosphate than ATP resulting in the muscle having a reserve source of energy.

true

T/F: Muscle power does not depend on the direction of the fascicles.

true

T/F: Muscle spasms of the back often are due to the erector spinae contraction.

true

T/F: Muscle tone is the small amount of tautness or tension in the muscle due to weak, involuntary contractions of its motor units.

true

T/F: Muscles are only able to pull, they never push.

true

T/F: Muscles connecting to the hyoid bone are important for swallowing and speech.

true

T/F: Muscles that help maintain upright posture are fixators.

true

T/F: One of the functions of skeletal muscle contraction is production of heat.

true

T/F: Peristalsis is characteristic of smooth muscle.

true

T/F: Regardless of type, all levers follow the same basic principle: effort farther than load from fulcrum = mechanical advantage; effort nearer than load to fulcrum = mechanical disadvantage

true

T/F: Smooth muscles relax when intracellular Ca2+ levels drop but may not cease contractions.

true

T/F: Supination is the movement of the forearm in which the palm of the hand is turned from posterior to anterior..

true

T/F: Synovial fluid contains phagocytic cells that protect the cavity from invasion by microbes or other debris.

true

T/F: Synovial fluid is a viscous material that is derived by filtration from blood.

true
