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

When connective tissue extends as a broad flat layer, the tendon is referred to as

back 7

Aponeurosis

front 8

For every nerve that penetrates a skeletal muscle there are general how many arteries and veins?

back 8

One artery and one or two veins

front 9

Axon terminal clusters at the ends of neuromuscular junctions are referred to as:

back 9

Synaptic end bulbs

front 10

After the fusion of myoblasts, the muscle fiber loses its ability to do what?

back 10

Grow, lengthen, contract, and go through mitosis

front 11

The sequence that muscle action potentials must go through to excite a muscle cell

back 11

Myofibrils, myofilaments, mitochondria

front 12

The mitochondria in muscle fiber are arranged

back 12

Closest to the sarcolemma

front 13

These are the contractile organelles of the muscle fiber.
