Skeletal Muscle Tissue Location answer ✨✔---combined with connective tissues and neural tissue
in skeletal muscles



Skeletal Muscle Tissue Function answer ✨✔----Moves or stabilizes the position of the skeleton

-Guards entrances and exits to the digestive, respiratory, and urinary tracts

-Generates heat

-Protects internal organs



Skeletal Muscle Tissue Type answer ✨✔---striated voluntary muscle



Cardiac Muscle Tissue Location answer ✨✔---Heart



Cardiac Muscle Tissue Function answer ✨✔----Circulates blood

-Maintains blood pressure



Cardiac Muscle Tissue Type answer ✨✔---striated involuntary muscle



Smooth Muscle Tissue Location answer ✨✔---mostly in the walls of hollow organs

, Smooth Muscle Tissue Function answer ✨✔----Moves food, urine, and reproductive tract
secretions

-Controls diameter of respiratory passageways

-Regulates diameter of blood vessels



Smooth Muscle Tissue Type answer ✨✔---non striated involuntary muscle



Parallel Muscles answer ✨✔---fibers parallel to the long axis of muscle

Ex. biceps brachii



Convergent Muscles answer ✨✔----Broad area converges on attachment site

-Muscle fibers pull in different directions, depending on stimulation

Ex. pectoralis muscles



Pennate Muscles answer ✨✔----Form an angle with the tendon

-More tension than parallel muscles

Ex. Extensor digitorum, Rectus femoris, Deltoid



Circular Muscles answer ✨✔----AKA sphincters

-Open and close entrances of the body

Ex. Orbicularis oris of the mouth



Muscle Origin answer ✨✔---one fixed point of attachment
