Muscular System Intro

Which of the following is not a function of the muscular system?

• posture

• movement

• blood production

• contraction for heat

Forms most of the walls of the heart and adjacent parts of the great vessels

• cardiac muscle

• smooth muscle

• skeletal muscle

Both of these muscles are part of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)

• smooth muscle

• skeletal muscle

• cardiac muscle

Move bones and other structures

• smooth muscle

• cardiac muscle

• skeletal muscle

Forms part of the walls of most vessels and hollow organs, moves substances through viscera (ex: intestine), & controls movement through blood vessels

• smooth muscle

• cardiac muscle

• skeletal muscle

This muscle is part of the Somatic Nervous System (SNS)

• smooth muscle

• cardiac muscle

• skeletal muscle

Connective Tissue layer surrounding the entire muscle

• Epimysium

• Perimysium

• Endomysium

Connective Tissue layer surrounding bundles of muscle fibers called fascicles

• Epimysium

• Perimysium

• Endomysium

Connective Tissue layer  surrounding each muscle fiber (cell) that makes up the fascicle

• Epimysium

• Perimysium

• Endomysium

Made up of many muscle fascicles

• Myofilament

• Fiber

• Muscle

• Fascicle
