BIOD 151 Module 5 Lab Exam 2026/2027 UPDATED
QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS GRADED A+
• three types of muscle tissue -✓✓ smooth, cardiac, and skeletal
• skeletal muscle -✓✓ under conscious control; has a blood & nervous supply to
enable movement
• conscious control -✓✓ a person decided to use this muscle to complete an action
• motor action -✓✓ a message is formed in the brain, is sent to the spinal cord, then
sent to the peripheral nervous system and finally to the correct muscle
• peripheral nerves -✓✓ middle man of carrying a message from central nervous
system to specific end point
• sensory input -✓✓ the nerves of the peripheral nervous system carry messages
that start externally to the central nervous system
• what action are muscles capable of -✓✓ they can only pull (contract) and then
relax again
• tendons -✓✓ connective tissue that connects skeletal muscles to bone, they are
flexible and can bend at joints and cushion against sudden movement
• ligaments -✓✓ connective tissues that connects bone to bone and stabilizes joints
, • origin -✓✓ bony site of attachment that is stationary during movement
• insertion -✓✓ the bony site of attachment that is moved by the muscle
contraction
• action -✓✓ the effect that comes from the muscles contraction
• innervation -✓✓ the peripheral nerve that gives the muscle the message from the
brain
• cranial nerve (CN) -✓✓ twelve pairs of cranial nerves that originate on the
ventral/anterior surface of the brain
• erector spinae group -✓✓ superficial muscles in the back; the prime extensors of
vertebral column
• flexion of spine -✓✓ forward bending of the trunk
• extension of spine -✓✓ backward bending
• lateral flexion of spine -✓✓ side bending movement around axis
• spinalis -✓✓ medial column of erector spinae; three divisions: spinalis thoracis,
spinalis cervicis, spinalis capitis
