|
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. |

|
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 myofilamentMyosin= 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 |
|

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

|
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. |
