• Smooth Muscle

• Cardiac Muscle

This is the ability of skeletal muscle wherein it recoils to its original resting length after it has been stretched

• Contractility

• Excitability

• Extensibility

• Elasticity

This is the connective tissue sheath that surrounds entire skeletal muscle

• perimysium

• endomysium

• epimysium

• muscle fascicles

This attaches your muscle to bone

What are the types of muscles?

• Skeletal, cardiac and brain

• Cardiac, Skeletal and smooth

• Smooth, rough and soft

• Skeletal, brain and nerve

What must occur first before a muscle can contract?

• An action potential must develop as energy/nutrients is gained from the digestive system

• An action potential must travel to the muscle through the circulatory system

• An action potential must enter the body through the respiratory system

• An action potential must be sent through neurons in the nervous system
