Practice questions for this set
Learn 1/7 Study using Learn
transport blood back to the heart
Select the correct term
1muscle fiber 2sliding filament theory
3max oxygen consumption (VO2max) 4veins
Don't know?
Terms in this set (76)
nervous system communication network within body
sensory (changes in environment), integrative (analyze and interpret), motor
nervous system three functions
(neuromuscular response)
central nervous system (CNS) brain and spinal cord; coordinates activity of the body
peripheral nervous system (PNS) nerves connecting CNS to rest of the body and environment
PNS Subdivisions somatic and autonomic
somatic serve outer areas of the body and skeletal muscle; voluntary
autonomic involuntary systems
parasympathetic (decrease activity during rest and recovery) and
autonomic subdivisions
sympathetic (increases activity to prepare for activity)
neuron functional unity of nervous system
motor (efferent) neurons transmit nerve impulses from CNS to effector sites
sensory (afferent) neurons respond to stimuli; transmit nerve impulses from effector sites to CNS
mechanoreceptors sense distortions in body tissues
join receptors respond to pressure, acceleration, and deceleration of joints
golgi tendon organs (GTO) sense changes in muscle tension
muscle spindles sense changes in muscle length
tendons connect muscle to bone; provide anchor for muscles to produce force
