Three Types of Muscles
|
Skeletal Muscle
Smooth Cardiac |
|
Skeletal Muscle
Striated and Voluntary |
Generally attatched to the bone because skeletal muscle can be controlled by choice, appear striped, striated
|
|
Smooth Muscle
Non Striated and INVoluntary |
Found in the walls of viscera wall such as stomach, sometimes called visceral muscles. Also found in tubes, breathing passages and blood vessels. Functions automatically and is called an involuntary muscle
|
|

|
|
Must be supplied by a somatic motor nerve
|

from apo- + neuron sinew — more at nerve |

|
|
Fascicles
a small bundle |
small bundles of muscle fibers
|
|
Tetanus
sustained muscle contraction and / muscle does not relax |
prolonged contraction of a muscle resulting from a series of motor impulses following one another too rapidly to permit intervening relaxation of the muscle

|
|
Insertion
muscle attatchment to a more moveable bone |
the part of a muscle by which it is attached to the part to be moved

|
|
Actin
Thin fillament |
