| 2. | __ is the neurotoxin that causes a disease that acts on inhibitors of muscle activity, produces muscle spasms, and results in lockjaw |
| 4. | featherlike type of skeletal muscle, the strongest of which is a multi__ muscle group |
| 6. | an extensor of the hip joint, in the hamstring |
| 7. | __ disks at the ends of cardiac muscle cells allow transmission of electrical activity |
| 10. | smooth muscle parasympathetic stimulation neurotransmitter |
| 11. | this cardiac disease occurs in cattle at high elevation, due to increased pulmonary arterial pressure |
| 14. | cardiac muscle acts as a __ when the disks at the ends of muscle cells allow for transmission of electrical activity |
| 15. | an extensor for the shoulder joint. |
| 18. | smooth muslce sympathetic stimulation neurotransmitter |
| 19. | color of type II muscle, probably because it requires anaerobic pathways |
| 20. | multiunit smooth muscles include the eye, __ fibers of hair. |
| 21. | the enzyme that degrades the neurotransmitter that allows Na+ to enter the muscle for action potential |
| 22. | a type of muscle that is under voluntary control, and is MULTInucleated. |
| 26. | the __ __ muscle is a sling supporting the trunk |
| 28. | this muscle type is multinucleated, and only found in one place in the body. It is under involuntary control |
| 30. | the __ and diaphragm are muscles that are associated with respiration. ("cost" is the latin term for "rib"... I remember that it "cost" Adam a "rib" to get his Eve!) |
| 32. | this muscle brings the scapula together, elevates the shoulder |
| 33. | latissimus dorsi and infraspinatus are __ for the shoulder joint |
| 34. | a flexor for the hip joint. another flexor for this joint is the rectus femoris (quadricep) |
| 36. | recurrent exertional __ is common in thoroughbreds and greyhounds. in this condition calcium doesn't go back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum properly |
| 40. | this muscle acts to lift the shoulder and swing the scapula forward |
| 41. | __ __ is low blood calcium: results in neuromuscular block |
| 43. | the movement of __ is ulitmately due to calcium, and the movement of it allows binding sites of actin to be exposed, so myosin and actin can bind |
| 45. | adductor muscle for hip joint. |
| 51. | biceps brachii and __ are flexors for elbow |
| 52. | when released form the sarcoplasmic reticullum, calcium immediately binds to __ which causes a conformational change |
| 53. | brachiocephalicus muscle is an extensor for the __ joint. |
| 54. | disease where toxin prevents vesicles containing acetylcholine at the synapse from release. the result is flaccid paralysis due to lack of muscle contraction |
| 55. | each muscle __ is a single muscle cell |
| 56. | in this muscle type, calcium is released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, but it also enters from outside the muscle cell via calcium channels |
| 57. | the functional lengthwise unit of a muscle fiber |
| 59. | color of type I muscle, probably because it requires so much oxygen |
| 60. | these animals have type III muscle |
| 61. | __ muscles are for making facial expressions. think of a mime who relies solely on facial expressions to get his point across! |
| 64. | also known as spindle, an example of this type of skeletal muscle are the biceps |
| 67. | the relaxation of smooth muscle (as opposed to stretch, which is stress) |
| 69. | flexor for the hock |
| 71. | this is the point where muscles attach, via tendon, to the less mobile structure |
| 73. | the gastrocnemius acts as an __ for the hock |
| 74. | this type of muscle is controlled by the ANS, and it's cells have only one nucleus each. |
| 75. | this is the point where muscles attach, via tendon, to the more mobile structure |
| 76. | when stimulation is continuous, summation hits a max tension (greater than a peak twitch tension) |
