4Fill in the blanks to give the names of each classification of muscle according to its function.
[blank_start]Flexor[blank_end] muscles bend a joint, decreasing its angle.
[blank_start]Extensor[blank_end] muscles straighten a joint, increasing its angle.
The [blank_start]prime mover[blank_end] or agonist muscle performs concentric contraction to bring about movement.
The [blank_start]antagonist[blank_end] muscle opposes the action of the primer mover to return it to its normal position.
The [blank_start]fixator[blank_end] muscle steadies the position produced by the prime mover by isometric contraction.

- DNumber of mitochondria present
16Which muscle fibre isoform is described as a white muscle fibre as it only contains a small amount of myoglobin?

- BSlow isoform (Type I)
17Which muscle fibre isoform is described as a red muscle fibre as it contains a lot of myoglobin?
- ASlow (type I)
- BFast (type II)
18Type I slow muscle fibres are suited to [blank_start]long[blank_end]-term contraction for [blank_start]endurance[blank_end] work. They are red and contract with slow [blank_start]twitch[blank_end] velocity. They have a higher density of [blank_start]mitochondria[blank_end] so are better suited to aerobic respiration. They are therefore fatigue [blank_start]resistant[blank_end]. However, they produce [blank_start]less[blank_end] instantaneous force so are described as 'weak'. They store energy in the form of [blank_start]triglycerides[blank_end].
- Along
- Bendurance
- Ctwitch
- Dmitochondria
- Eresistant
- Fless
- Gtriglycerides
19Type II muscle fibres are better suited to [blank_start]short[blank_end]-term contraction. They are [blank_start]white[blank_end] in colour due to a lack of myoglobin. They contract with [blank_start]fast[blank_end] twitch velocity and are more prone to aerobic respiration. They therefore fatigue easily, but produce more instantaneous force. They store energy in the form of ATP and creatine phosphate.
- Ashort
- Bwhite
- Cfast
20Type II muscle fibres are better suited to [blank_start]short[blank_end]-term contraction. They are [blank_start]white[blank_end] in colour due to a lack of myoglobin. They contract with [blank_start]fast[blank_end] twitch velocity and are more prone to [blank_start]anaerobic[blank_end] respiration. They therefore fatigue easily, but produce more [blank_start]instantaneous[blank_end] force. They store energy in the form of ATP and [blank_start]creatine phosphate[blank_end].
- Ashort
- Bwhite
- Cfast
- Danaerobic
- Einstantaneous
- Fcreatine phosphate
21The Type IIa fast [blank_start]oxidative[blank_end] muscle fibres have higher concentrations of [blank_start]myoglobin[blank_end] and mitochondria. They are therefore the most resistant to [blank_start]fatigue[blank_end] of the Type II fibres and are used in [blank_start]long[blank_end] term anaerobic activities.
Type IIb fast [blank_start]glycolytic[blank_end] muscle fibres have low concentrations of myoglobin and [blank_start]mitochondria[blank_end] so fatigue easily but contract [blank_start]quickly[blank_end] with high power. They are therefore used in short term [blank_start]anaerobic[blank_end] activities.
Type IIx super-fast [blank_start]glycolytic[blank_end] muscle fibres have the lowest concentrations of muscle fibres so are very vulnerable to [blank_start]fatigue[blank_end]. They do, however, contract the fastest with the largest amount of [blank_start]power[blank_end].- Aoxidative
- Bglycolytic
- Cglycolytic
- Dmyoglobin
- Efatigue

30The limb and trunk muscles are derived from embryonic structures known as [blank_start]somites[blank_end] - buds of the mesoderm. The [blank_start]somites[blank_end] are divided into sections which will give rise to different parts of the body.
The [blank_start]dermomyotomes[blank_end] will give rise to the skeletal muscle, the satellite cells and the overlying dermis.
The [blank_start]sclerotome[blank_end] will give rise to cartilage, joints and tendons.
The [blank_start]myotome[blank_end] will form differentiated myocytes.- Asomites

31Muscle precursor cells that end up in medial locations will initially migrate into the limb bud periphery before moving back towards the midline to their final location.
