NASM-overview from study guide,
chapters 1-5
how many years do you need to keep client records/ tax records etc. - ANSWERS4
what connects bone to bone? - ANSWERSligament
what connects bone to muscle? - ANSWERStendon
what is the most inner layer of a muscle fiber (i.e. what covers just 1 tinny muscle fiber?) -
ANSWERSconnective tissue called endomysium
A group of muscle fibers make a muscle fascicle. Each muscle fascicle is made surrounded by
connective tissue called - ANSWERSperimysium
A group of muscle fascicle make a muscle. Each muscle surrounded by 2 connective tissues
called - ANSWERSfascia (on top), and epimysium (on bottom), which are also connected to the
bone to help form a muscles tendon
What is the functional unit of a muscle that produces muscular contraction and consists of
repeating sections of actin and myosin - ANSWERSsacromere
how does a muscle contraction begin? - ANSWERSACH released to binding receptors, action
reaches T tubule, sacroplasmic reticulum releases CA2t, active site exposure cross-bridge
binding (actin and myosin overlap), z lines get shorter, contraction begins
, how does a muscle contraction end? - ANSWERSACH removed by ACHE, sarcoplasmic reticulum
recaptures CA2t, active site covered, so there is no cross bridge interaction between actin and
myosin, contraction ends, returns to passive, resting length
What type of muscle is slow twitch? - ANSWERStype 1
what type of muscle is fast twitch? - ANSWERStype 2
what type of muscle fiber has fewer capillaries, mitchochondria, and myoglobin? -
ANSWERStype 2
what type of muscle fiber has decreased oxygen delivery - ANSWERStype 2
what type of muscle fiber is smaller is size? - ANSWERStype 1
what type of muscle fiber is larger in size? - ANSWERStype 2
what type of muscle fiber has more capillaries, mitchonchondira, and myoglobin, and increased
oxygen delivery - ANSWERStype 1
what muscle fiber produces the most force? - ANSWERStype 2
what muscle fiber is quicker to fatigue? - ANSWERStype 2
what muscle fiber is slower to fatigue? - ANSWERStype 1
what muscle fiber is responsible for long term contractions (stabilization) - ANSWERStype 1
