Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

back 18

posteria

front 19

An exception to this generalzation is the extensor-flexor musculature of the __

back 19

knee

front 20

Prime mover(agonist)

back 20

term for the bicep bracket during elbow flexion

front 21

synergist

back 21

term that describes relations of brachialis to biceps bracket during elbow flexion

front 22

Antagonist

back 22

term for triceps bracket during elbow flexion & term for iliopsoas during hip extension

front 23

back 25

z discs

front 26

back 26

sacroplasm

front 27

The region where only myosin proteins are found

back 27

H zone

front 28

Sphincters

back 28

allow food to stomach

front 29

Functions of muscle tissue

back 29

motion, maintenance of posture, heat production, and storage

front 30

What do cardiac fibers do

back 30

contract and relax rapidly, continuously,and rhytmically(autorhythmicity)

front 31

Superficial fascia

back 31

connects skin to underlying muscle tissue.

front 32

Deep fascia

back 32

surrounds and suspends muscles and viscera

front 33

Aponeurosis

back 33

a sheet like tendon joining two muscles or muscle to bone

front 34

Myosin

back 34

thick

front 35

Actin

back 35

thin

front 36

Myofibrils

back 36

little threads running longitudinally and contain two types of smaller and shorter elements called myofilaments

front 37

there are thousands of tranverse tubules in each fiber why?

back 37

make sure the nerve impulse excites all parts of the cell at one time

front 38

What are transverse tubules

back 38

extensions of the sarcolemma into the muscle fiber

front 39

What are myofilaments that are arranged into compartments called

back 39

sarcomeres

front 40

what are sacromeres

back 40

Functional units of a myofibril

front 41

A band

back 41

Extends from one end to the other of the thick myofilaments and forms dark situations in skeletal muscle

front 42

I band

back 42

extends from the end of one thick filament to the beginning of the next and forms the light striations

front 43

front 47

Initiation of muscle action potential excitation

back 47

nerve impulses arrives at the neuromuscular junction
