Questions and Answers List
level questions: ANAT Exam
Question
Answer
more range of movement, less powerful - maximum shortening of muscle belly, movement at associated joint, but not great force development
Parallel muscle contraction
more powerful, less range of movement - less shortening of belly, less movement at associated joint, but more powerful
oblique muscle contraction
strap, fusiform, flat/quadrilateral, triangular
parallel muscle types
unipennate, bipennate, multipennate
oblique muscle types
muscle fibres attach directly to bone via a very small amount of connective tissue
Fleshy attachment
muscle firbres attach to a cord of connective tissue that attaches to a bone
Tendon attachment
muscles attach to a sheet of connective tissue which then attaches to another muscle
Raphe attachment
tubular synovial sheaths that wrap around tendons. Allows tendons to slide over other structures without friction
Tendon sheaths
Static - tension is generated in the muscle but no movement occurs and the length of muscles and angle of joint don't change
Isometric
Dynamic - muscle contraction that changes the length
Isotonic
muscle contraction that results in the lengthening of a muscle - control of movement
Eccentric
muscle contraction that results in the shortening of a muscle - producing movement, fighting against external force
Concentric
the movement produced when a muscle contracts concentrically in isolation
Action
