Muscle System Review

Poll

Before we get into the review, help us scientists gather some data!

On a scale from 1-4, how confident are you in your knowledge of the muscular system?

• 1

  this is really hard and i'll never learn it

• 2

  i know some of the words but its a ton of memorization

• 3

  I've got this, i just need practice

• 4

  Really I should be teaching the class, Ms. Elsey and Dr. Portesy have nothing on me

Labelling

Match the steps of the sliding filament theory of muscle contraction with the corresponding pictures.

Drag labels to their correct position on the image

ATP breaks down, stretching myosin out

Myosin heads attach to binding sites

ADP+P detaches, myosin pulls on actin

ATP binds, detaching myosin

Ca+2 enters, revealing binding sites

Reorder

Put the steps of the sliding filament model in order:

• Calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, causing tropomyosin to move troponin from the binding sites

• Myosin heads on the thick filament attach to the binding sites on the thin filament, forming myosin cross-bridges

• Low-energy ADP+P is released from myosin heads, causing the myosin heads to spring back into place, sliding the thin filament over

• A high-energy chemical, ATP binds to the exposed space on myosin heads, causing the heads to detach from actin

• ATP breaks down into ADP+P, causing the myosin heads to shoot forward. This prepares the muscle for another contraction.

What would happen to someones' muscles if they were unable to release calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum?

Labelling

Label the structures in myoneural junction.

Drag labels to their correct position on the image

motor end plate

axon terminal

axon

Ach receptor

acetylcholine

synaptic vesicle

neuromuscular junction

Reorder

Put the steps in a myoneural/neuromuscular junction in order:

• An action potential comes from the neuron, along the axon

• The synaptic vesicles in the axon terminal are triggered to release

• Neurotransmitters called acetylcholine travel across the synaptic gap

• Acetylcholine binds to receptors, causing Na+2 ions to diffuse into the cell

• Na+2 ions cause the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release Ca+2 ions

Multiple Choice

In the image, popular actress Betty White is doing a common pose called a "dab". What muscles would Mrs. White be using for this action, and what movements are shown? ​

• She is using her biceps brachii for flexion of her left elbow and her triceps brachii for extension of her right elbow

• She is using her quadriceps for adduction of her left arm and her biceps femoris for extension of her right arm

• She is using her rectus abdominus for circumduction of her left shoulder and her deltoid for abduction of her right houlder

• She is using her soleus for inversion of her left arm and her masseter for excursion of her right arm

Poll

Now that you've finished the review, help us scientists gather some final data!

On a scale from 1-4, how confident are you NOW in your knowledge of the muscular system?

• 1

  this is still really hard and i'll never learn it :P

• 2

  i know some of the words but its a ton of memorization...maybe I'll study before the test?

• 3

  I've got this, I crushed those practice questions, obviously!

• 4

  I think for sure I should be teaching the class.

  Ms. Elsey and Dr. Portesy have nothing on me!
