Hydrostatic skeleton - found in soft bodied invertebrates, a fluid-filled cavity in encircled by the muscle fiber of an organism
Exoskeleton - surround the body as a rigid case in most animal
Endoskeleton - rigid internal skeleton, which muscle are attached found un vertebrates and echinoderms, have flexible exterior that accumulates the movement of their skeleton.
Two parts of the endoskeleton of a mammal
AxialSkeleton
AppendicularSkeleton
Axial Skeleton - bones forms the axis of the body and support the organ of the head, neck and chest
Appendicular Skeleton - bones includes the limbs, pectorals and pelvic girdle
Synergist - muscle that cause same action at the joint, all act to extend the knee joint
Antagonist - muscle that produce opposing action, muscle that flex a joint to muscle that extend a joint
Isotonic Contraction - the muscle and all its fiber shorten in length during contraction
Isometric Contraction- the muscle begin to conduct but the tension is absorbed by the tendons and other elastic tissue associated
What are the three types of joints
Immovable joints
Slightly movable joints
Freely movable joints
Immovable Joints - include the sature that joint the bones of the skull
Slightly Movable Joints - includes those bones which are bridge with cartilage
FreelyMovable Joints - also called synovial joints = articulating ends of the bones are located within a sunovial capsule filled with a lubricated fluid
Tendon - a dense connective tissue strap where muscle are attached to the bone
Origin - are attachment of the muscle, remains stationary during contraction
Insertion - the other end os the muscle which attached to another side os the bone moves when muscle contraction occurs
