BI 232 MIDTERM WEEK TESTS AND LESSONS
PRACTICE EXAM 2026
1. muscles tissues or fibers that contract and relax to cause movement of body parts and
organs
2. Three types of skeletal, cardiac, smooth
muscle tissue
3. skeletal muscle A muscle that is attached to the bones of the skeleton and provides the force that
moves the bones.
4. skeletal muscle multinucleated
number of nuclei
5. skeletal muscle parallel
direction
6. skeletal muscle; long and cylindrical
shape
7. skeletal muscle; yes
are there stria-
tions?
8. skeletal muscle; is yes
it voluntary?
9. cardiac muscle Muscle of the heart
10. cardiac muscle; uninucleate
number of nuclei
11. short and branched cells
,12. cardiac muscle; involuntary
voluntary?
13. cardiac muscle; striated
striations?
14. Smooth muscle muscle found in internal organs
15. Smooth muscle; spindle shaped
shape
16. Smooth muscle; uninucleate
nuclei
17. Smooth muscle; no striations
striations?
18. smooth muscle; involuntary
voluntary?
19. 4 functional char- excitability, contractility, extensibility, elasticity
acteristics of mus-
cle tissue
20. Excitability ability to respond to stimuli
21. Contractility ability to shorten forcibly when stimulated (only in muscle tissue)
22. Extensibility the ability to be stretched or extended when relaxed
,23. Elasticity the ability of a muscle tissue to return to its original length
24. The four main movement, posture, joint stability, heat production
functions of mus-
cles
25. All muscle types chemical (ATP), mechanical
convert
energy ( ),
into
energy
26. 3 ways muscle as- blood circulation, food digestion, mvt of other fluids (urine, bile, lymph)
sists in movement
ASIDE from loco-
motive (running,
walking.. etc..)
27. how are muscles about 70% of all energy muscles produce is heat
involved in heat
protection?
28. 3 types of CT epimysium, perimysium, endomysium
wrapping in mus-
cle
29. Epimysium surrounds entire muscle
30. Perimysium Connective tissue surrounding a fascicle
, 31. Endomysium Connective tissue surrounding a muscle fiber
32. How do nerves each muscle cell connects to a nerve (enters through epimysium) then branches
connect to mus- throughout the muscle
cle?
33. how do muscles veins and arteries
receive O2 and
nutrients?
34. Tendon Connects muscle to bone, cord shaped CT, one directional force
35. Aponeurosis strong sheet of tissue that acts as a tendon to attach muscles to bone
36. direct and indirect
