Which is not true of deep facia?:
it can blend with periosteum
It forms the outer sleeve of compartments
It surrounds each muscle individually
Often muscle can glide underneath it, although it may be part of the tendon




Msucle growth does not involve:

Hypertrophy
Mitosis of myocytes
Heavy resistance training or anabolic steroids


Atrophy will not involve:
Decrease in size of myocytes
Heart failure, diabetes, cancer or AIDS
Possible paralysis
Fibre loss


Satellite cells do not:
Have a limited ability to make mew myocytes
Have to survive rough handling
Sit outside the myocyte basement membrane
Have the ability to repair the myocyte by joining the syncytium




Which is not a function of skeletal muscle connective tissue?
Provide space for innervation and blood supply
Provide scaffolding for myogenesis in the adult
Distribute the forces of contraction

What is not true of Desmin?
Allows a cut myocyte to contribute to overall load
Is partially responsible for striation
Holds Z lines together
It holds A bands together


What is not true of Dystrophin?
It is deficient in muscular dystrophy
