1. What are the three types 1. Smooth
of muscle tissue? 2. Cardiac
3. Skeletal
2. What are the 4 prop- 1. Excitability
erties of ALL muscle 2. Contractility
(smooth, cardiac, skele- 3. Extensibility
tal) 4. Elasticity
3. Excitability Ability to respond to stimuli (nervous impulses)
4. Contractility Ability to shorten, cause tension
*Contraction means to shorten
5. Extensibility Ability to stretch beyond their normal resting length
6. Elasticity Ability to rebound after contracting
7. Functions of Skeletal 1. Produce skeletal movement.
(voluntary) muscles 2. Maintain posture and body position.
3. Support soft tissue.
4. Regulate entering and exiting of material - voluntary control of
mouth/esophogus, anus, urethra.
5. Maintain body temperature - muscle contraction is converted to
heat.
* All 1-4 generates this heat
