Skeletal muscle
Connects bone to skeleton
Is striated called voluntary
Smooth muscle
Cells are smooth not striped primarily in viscera contractions of smooth muscle is not under conscious control
Cardiac muscle
Exclusively in heart. Resembles cross bw smooth and striated muscle, can generate their own elect impulse
5 functions of skeletalmuscle
1.produce movement-pull on tendons to move bone
2.maintain posture and body position
3. Support soft tissue-provides support for ab organs
4.gaurd ins and outs-rings of skeletal muscle guard in and out of digestive tract
5.maintain body temp. Byproduct of cell reps is heat
Muscle fiber
Elongated cells some 1-2' in length
endomysium
surround ea individual muscle fiber is a layer of connective tissue.
AROUND EVERY INDIVIDUAL CELL
fascicle
A compartment containing muscle fibers and their respective endomysium
perimysium
Connective tissue Surrounding ea fascicle also containing blood vessels and nerves
epimysium
Collection of fascicle and perimysiums wrapped in another layer of connective tissue
tendon
epimysium fibers become a tendon and fuse to the periostium connecting muscle to bone
fascia
All three layers of connective tissue
endomysium+perimysium+epimysium=fascia
sarcolemm
Cell membrane of muscle fibers
sarcoplasm
Cytoplasm of muscle fiber
myofibrills
Cylindrical structures extending through muscle fiber that contain the contracting protien
T-tubules
sarcolemma invalidates creating tunnels
sarcoplasmic reticulum
Network of membranous tunnels that connect adjacent to T-tubes
sarcomeres
Individual myofibril is composed of thousands of subunits stacked end to end
cisternae
Chambers in the sarcoplasmic reticulum filled with calcium ions
Diff types of sarcomere
actin-contracting protein
myosin- contracting protein
tropomyosin- prevents the 2 contracting proteins from interacting
Neuromuscular junction
The synapse bw axon and muscle
vesicles
Containers
acetylcholine
Neurotransmitter for axon to muscle
receptor sites
On the surface of the sarcolemma. Stimulating enough receptor sites cause sodium gates on the sarcolemma to open and sodium rushes into the muscle fibers
glycolysis
Oxy not required. Cytoplasm transforms glucose into private which relaxes ATP extracts 2 ATP
Produces lactic acid
Cell resp
95% of energy needs use oxygen to produce ATP and extract remaining 36 atp
Creating phosphate
Where excess ATP is stored During resting periods while skeletal muscles produce more ATP then is required.
ATP to ADP to ATP
After releasing the energy ATP becomes ADP the creating phosphate can transfer stored energy into ADP turning it back into atp
hemoglobin
Oxygen-caring protien
myoglobin
Oxygen-binding protein found in skeletal and cardiac muscle that can store oxygen
Oxygen dept
whn skeletal muscle runs low on avail oxygen delivered by hemoglobin it can start using oxygen stored by myoglobin
Lactic acid
Produced from anaerobic metabolism
The liver and cells themselves can convert lactic acid back to private which mitochondria can catabolize back to atp
power
Max tension/pull a muscle or muscle group can produce
endurance
amt of time the muscle can perform
Fast fiber

type of meat

Where on body
lg dial fibers, respond immediately,lg reserved of glycogen,relitivly few mitochondria,
Extreme power not much reserved

White meat

hands
Slow fibers

type of meat

Where on body
Small fiber, take longer to contract, grater capillary supply for oxygen supply, contains myoglobin,higher concentration of mitochondria
Lack power but high endurance

Dark meat

calves
agonist
Primarily responsible for producing movement
antagonist
Primary action opposes the movement of another muscle
synergist
Muscles that asset the prime mover in working more efficiently
frontalis
forehead
sternocleidomastoid
neck
vastus lateralis
Outside thigh
trapezius
Neck/ top of shoulder/upper spine
occipitalis
Back of head
Rectum abdominis
abs
Biceps brachii
bicept
deltoid
shoulder
temporalis
temple
gastrocnemius
calf
Triceps brachii
tricepts
gluteus maximus
ass
masseter
jaw
Rectum femoris
Middle thigh
Pectorals major
chest
