Test Description: Review over the Muscular System
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) Where is the protein called actin loacted in the body?
A
ATP molecules
B
acetylcholine neurotransmitters
C
myosin filaments
D
thin filaments
2) In addition to myosin, what other protein is involved in skeletal muscle contraction?
A
melanin
B
actin
C
keratin
D
collagen
3) The ion necessary to link myosin to actin for muscule contraction is:
A
potassium
B
calcium
C
sodium
D
magnesium
4) Muscle tone refers to:
A
the ability of a muscle to maintain contraction against an outside force
B
a feeling of well-being following exercise
C
a state of sustained, partial contraction of muscles that is necessary to maintain posture
D
the condition athletes attain after intensive training
5) What happens when the thin filaments in a muscle fiber slide over the thick filaments?
A
a muscle contracts
B
a muscle relaxes
C
a muscle neither contracts nor relaxes
D
a muscle both contracts and relaxes
6) Myosin and actin make up
A
myofibrils
B
collagen
C
red marrow
D
osteoblasts
7) What tough connective tissue joins skeletal muscles to bones?
A
periosteum
B
joints
C
ligaments
D
tendons
8) The concept used to explain the action of filaments in muscle contraction is the
A
sliding-filament model
B
rigor mortis
C
myosin contraction model
D
acitn contraction model
9) Regular exercise does the following:
A
decreases the number of myofibrils which increases muscle size and strength
B
increases the amount of calcium in the muscles
C
increases the number of myofibrils which increases muscle size and strength
D
decreases the amount of calcium in the muscles
10) Rigor Mortis is a stiffening of the muscles after death due to:
A
the ATP levels are higher than the Calcium levels which keeps the myosin binded to the actin
B
the muscles dehydrate and remain in the stiffened position
C
the Calcium levels are higher than the ATP levels which keeps the myosin binded to the actin
D
Rigor Mortis is a skeletal disorder, not muscular
