1: What is the musculoskeletal system.
The body system responsible for biomechanical action and is comprised of skeletal muscle groups, connective tissue and bone/skeleton.
2: What are the 4 functions of the skeletal system in our body.
Structural Integrity/Biomechanical Function
Production of blood
Storage of fat and minerals
Organ Protection
3: What is the total number of bones in the following:
overall skeletal system: 206
axial skeleton: 80
appendicular skeleton: 126
5: What are the three layers that constitute the bone.
Compact, cancellous, osteoblast
6: What are the five bone categories?
flat, long, short, irregular, and sesamoid
7: What are the 6 joint categories.
pivot, hinge, saddle, plane, condyloid, and ball-and-socket
8: Label the joints in this chart.
9: What is a “tendon”.
Fibrous connective tissue joining muscle to bone.

12: What are 3 types of muscle in the body.
skeletal
cardiac
smooth
13: Fill in the chart below:
14: Fill in the following diagrams:
15: What is”origin.”
Origin is the fixed attachment point of muscle to bone via tendon connection
16: Define “insertion.”
Insertion is a dynamic attachment point of muscle to bone via tendon and changes with muscle contraction

19: Mark the insertion and origin of the pectoralis major muscle. Indicate origin with an “O” and insertion with an “I.” Indicate the intended action in the line provided below. (Hint: Refer to Unit 8 if you have trouble with intended action.)
20: Mark the insertion and origin of the latissimus dorsi muscle. Indicate origin with an “O” and insertion with an “I.” Indicate the intended action in the line provided below. (Hint; Refer to Unit 8 if you have trouble with intended action.)
21: Mark the insertion and origin of the deltoid muscle. Indicate origin with an “O” And insertion with an “I.” Indicate the intended action in the line provided below. (Hint: Refer to Unit 8 if you have trouble with intended action.)
22: Mark the insertion and origin of the trapezius muscle. Indicate origin with an “O” And insertion with an “I.” Indicate the intended action in the line provided below. (Hint: Refer to Unit 8 if you have trouble with intended action.)

25: Mark the insertion and origin of the hamstring muscles. Indicate origin with an “O” and insertion with an “I.” Indicate the intended action on the lines provided below. (Hint: Refer to Unit 8 if you have trouble with intended action.)
intended action: Extension of the hip, flexion of the knee, internal rotation of the knee
Muscle: Semitendinosus
intended action: Extension of the hip, flexion of the knee, internal rotation of the knee
Muscle: Semimembranosus
intended action: Extension of the hip, flexion of the knee, internal rotation of the knee
26: Complete the chart below to explain skeletal muscle contraction.
27: What are the six major muscle fiber arrangements?
Fusiform arrangement
Upennate
Bipennate
Multipennate
Triangular
Parallel
28: Determine the muscle fiber arrangements below with examples.
29: What are the 4 categories of muscle fibre types and their nature?
Type I, Type IIa, Type IIx and Type IIc
30: What is hypertrophy in relation to the training effect?
Hypertrophy is the anabolic response of muscle protein synthesis catalyzed by resistance training or a general adaptation to increased mechanically resistive forces in daily life. it results in increased muscle mass.
