Role of Other Body Systems in MovementIt sometimes takes other systems of the body other than the muscular system to create movementNervous System Tells some muscles to moveThe Cerebrum generates nerve impulses for movement
Structure of Skeletal MuscleMost skeletal muscles attach to two bones that have a movable joint between themOne of the two bones is usually more stationary that the otherA body part moves with the involvement of a group of muscles. No one muscle ever works alone.
MovementInsertion portion of the muscle is what moves bonesSeveral muscles contract while others relax to produce movementPrime movers mainly responsible for producing movementSynergist help along with prime moversAntagonists move opposite of prime movers and synergists
MovementBending the armBiceps brachii prime moverBrachialis synergistsTriceps brachii antagonistsStraightening the armTriceps brachii prime moverBiceps brachii and Brachialis - antagonists
Structure of Skeletal Muscle
Fascia - fibrous connective tissue surrounding muscle groups.Tendons attach muscles to bones - Dense fibrous connective tissue. Have great strength and dont break easily. Ligaments attach bone to bone - slightly elastic and more flexible than tendons.
Microscopic StructureSarcolemmaMyofilamentsMyosinActin
Microscopic StructureSarcomere Basic functional or contractile unit of skeletal muscle. Very much like the Haversian System in bonesContraction tightening of a muscle, becomes shorter and thickerRelaxation Muscle returns to its original form, becomes longer and thinner
Muscle StimulusMuscle fibers do not contract until an applied stimulus reaches a certain level of intensity, this is called the threshold stimulusAt this time the muscle fiber contracts completely so its called all or none
Motor UnitMuscles must be stimulated by nerve impulses called motor neuronsThe area between the nerve ending and the muscle fiber is called the neuromuscular junction
Functions of Skeletal MuscleThree basic functionsMovementPosture or muscle toneHeat Production
PostureTonic ContractionSpecial type of skeletal muscle contraction that helps us maintain postureDoesnt move any body parts, it just helps us defy gravity by holding us upright
Heat ProductionMuscle fiber contractions produces heatEnergy required to produce a muscle contraction is obtained from the breakdown of ATP. Some energy is lost during these contractions and this is what helps us to maintain our body temperature
Structure of Skeletal MuscleThe muscle attachment at the more stationary bone is called its originThe muscle attachment at the more movable bone is called its insertionThe rest of the muscle is called the body
FatigueWhen muscles are stimulated repeatedly without adequate periods of rest will cause fatigue
Types of Skeletal Muscle ContractionTwitch Contraction:Jerky response to a stimulusSeen in muscles during researchPlay a minimal role in normal muscle activity
Types of Skeletal Muscle ContractionTetanic Contraction:A sustained contraction
Types of Skeletal Muscle ContractionIsotonic Contraction:Produces movement of a jointMuscle changes lengthThe insertion end moves toward the origin
Types of Skeletal Muscle ContractionIsometric Contraction:Does not always produce movementSometimes it increases the tension within a muscle but does not shorten the muscle
Effects of ExerciseProlonged inactivityMuscles shrink in mass disuse atrophyIncreased activityIncrease muscle size hypertrophyEnhanced by strength training
Effects of ExerciseEndurance training (aerobic training)Doesnt usually cause muscle hypertrophyIncreases the number of blood vessels in a muscle with increasing its sizeIncreases number of mitochondria in muscle fibers, which produces more ATP
