Summary

The muscular system's structure and function are the focus. Students get a quiz on skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle. They also get questions about the gross anatomy of muscles.

Muscle functions and types

Skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles are described. Functions of skeletal muscle are listed. Students choose which statements about muscle types are true.

Muscle contraction and growth

Muscle contraction is explained. Students choose how muscles grow larger. The role of calcium ions in contraction is described.

Muscle actions and movements

Muscle actions are described. Students choose which muscles perform certain actions. The role of muscles in respiration is explained.

Muscle identification

Students identify muscles from diagrams. The location and function of some muscles are described.

Key terms

Hypertrophy
Growth in muscle size.
Excitation-contraction coupling
Process by which an action potential causes muscle contraction.
Isotonic contraction
Muscle contraction where tension remains constant.
Aerobic respiration
Respiration that requires oxygen.
Origin
The end of a muscle that connects to a fixed bone.
Insertion
The end of a muscle that connects to a movable bone.
