Functionsof Muscle

Movement


Heat generation


Joint stabilization


Works with the skeletal system to maintain posture.


Propels movement of blood through the veins of the circulatory system.

Tendon

connective tissue that wraps around muscle, tapers, and connects to bone

Aponeurosis

broad sheet of fibrous connective tissue (tendon) that attach muscle to bone or other muscles

lineaalba

the sheet of fibrous tissue that attaches right and left abdominal muscle a the midline of the abdomen

Origin(of muscle)

the most stable attachmentsites of muscle

Insertion (of muscle)

the more movable attachment sites of muscle

Fascia

connective tissue that lies over muscle.


Cobweb looking.


Anchors


Connectivetissue in muscle...

simultaneously separates and holds muscle tissue together


Threelayers of connective tissue

Epimysium


perimysium


endomysium

Epimysium


thick Connective tissue that wraps covers the entire muscle


Perimysium

Connective tissue thatextends into the muscle and wraps around each muscle bundle

Endomysium

thin Connective tissue that surrounds each individual muscle fiber

Muscle

group of muscle cells working together tocontract

Fascicle(muscle bundle)

a structure within the muscle that contains muscle cells and bound together by perimysium

Musclefiber (muscle cell)

a cell that runs the entire length of a muscle

Sarcolemma

cell membrane of a muscle cells. Contains a lot of sodium Ions

transverse tubules (T-tubules)


channels of the inner portion of the sarcolemma


MAP- Muscleaction potential

Uses energy to fore t-tubules to open


Sarcoplasm

cytoplasmof a muscle cell

Myofibril

longthreadlike structures that run the length of a muscle cell for muscle contraction


Sarcoplasmicreticulum

membrane that encloses the myofibril. High number of calcium ions.


The ER of Muscle cells

Sarcomere

acompartment along each myofibril that is created by Z lines. Contracting unit of a muscle.

Myofilaments

Proteins actin and myosin

Actin= a thin myofilament

Myosin= thin myofilament


Striations

give muscle it’s stripy appearance

A bands and I bands

A bands-dark in color


I bands- light in color

Z lines

disks that run perpendicular through the muscle cell that aid with contractions


attached to actin filaments

Neuromuscularjunction

Area that involves the nerve, muscle cell and the space between thetwo

Motor neuron

a nerve that carries signals from the CNS

Neurotransmitter

a molecule that is released from the nerve and binds with the muscle cell

Synapticcleft

space between the muscle and the nerve

Acetylcholinesterase

binds with ACH


to break it down

Energysupplies for the muscle tissue


Theblood stream provides:


1. Glucose


2. Oxygen

Glucose storage in muscle

isstored in muscle tissue in the form of “glycogen.”

Oxygen storage in muscle

stored in muscle tissue by attaching to aprotein molecule called “myoglobin.”

Chemistry ofmuscle contraction

rapidsplitting of ATP

2types of muscle respiration

1. Aerobic(preferred)


2. Anaerobic

AerobicCellular respiration

normal healthymuscle cell


muscle physiology which utilizes O2 & glucose for rapid splitting ofATP

Aerobic respirationsequence

1. O2 and glucose enter muscle cells throughblood stream


2. Glucose in muscle cell utilizes O2 for rapid ATP production (splitting)


3. Glucose and O2 are then broken down to pyruvic acid


4. pyruvic acid is broken down to CO2 and H2O bymitochondria of cells

Anaerobicrespiration of muscle cell

last resort muscle use


without oxygen

shortcomings of anaerobic respiration

1. huge amounts of glycogen must be used forsmall harvest of ATP production (good only for short bursts of energy)


2. fatigue and soreness from lactic acid accumulation


Anaerobic respiration sequence

1. Absence of oxygen causes muscle cell to utilizesstored “glycogen” in the muscle tissue instead of O2 and glucose for rapid Productionof ATP.


2. glycogen is then broken down to pyruvicacid.


3. because there is nooxygen present, pyruvic acid is broken down into “lactic acid” which sits in muscle tissue for prolonged period.

All or noneprinciple

when a muscle cell contracts, the entire cell contracts completely

Twitch

involuntary motor neuron adjacent to the cell it is working with


Involuntary stimulation of motorneuron.

Shivering

involuntary muscle contraction- motor neurons responding to cold

Flexion

movement of muscle required decrease the angle between two adjunct bones

Extension


muscle ability to increase the angle between two adjacent bones


Abduction

moving limb away from the midline of the body

Adduction

bringslimb closer to the midline of body

Pronation

turn a hand /foot palm/plantar side down

Supination

turn a hand /foot palm/plantar side up

Inversion

to turn a body part inward toward the midline of the body

Eversion

to turn a body part away the midline of the body

Rotation

to twist or turn a structure in a circular motion

Dorsiflexion

decrease of an angle between the food and the tibial crest

Plantar flexion/palmarflexion

increase the angle between the food and the cranial aspect of a limb

Protraction

jutting out of a body structure from the body

Retraction

bringing inward of a body structure


Dilation

widening or increase of the lumen of a body structure

Constriction

Decrease of the lumen of a body structure

Rigormortis


condition of muscle tissue in which muscle is very stiff becausecalcium of the sarcoplasmic reticulum is leaking out of the sarcolemma


the splitting ATP

-ATP molecules behave like tiny batteries which can be recharged over andover again.


1. ATP molecule loses one phosphate group, creating ADP.


2. Compound in muscle tissue called “creatine phosphate” binds withADP.


3. This converts the ADP molecule back into an ATP molecule which is readyto charge again.
