1 Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology Fifth edition Seeley, Stephens and Tate Slide 2.1 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Chapter 7: Muscular System

2 The Muscular System Slide 6.1 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Muscles are responsible for body movement  Three types are found in the body  Skeletal muscle**  Cardiac muscle  Smooth muscle

3 Types of Muscle Three types of muscle SkeletalCardiacSmooth

4 Functions of Skeletal Muscles Slide 6.1 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Make up “flesh” of the body Maintain Posture Voluntary movement Aid in breathing, eating, speech Provide facial expression Generate reflexes Produce body heat

5 Characteristics of Skeletal Muscles Slide 6.2 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Muscle cells are elongated (muscle cell = muscle fiber)  Muscles are specialized to contract  Terminology:  Prefix myo, mys refer to muscle  Prefix sarco refers to flesh

6 Characteristics of Skeletal Muscles Slide 6.3 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Most are attached by tendons to bones  Cells are multinucleate  Striated – have visible banding  Voluntary – subject to conscious control  Muscles and their fibers are wrapped by connective tissue

7 Connective Tissue Wrappings of Skeletal Muscle Slide 6.4a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Endomysium – around single muscle fiber  Perimysium – around a fascicle (bundle) of fibers Figure 6.1

8 Connective Tissue Wrappings of Skeletal Muscle Slide 6.4b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Epimysium – covers the entire skeletal muscle  Fascia – on the outside of the epimysium Figure 6.1

9 Skeletal Muscle Attachments Slide 6.5 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Epimysium blends into a connective tissue attachment  Tendon – cord-like structure  Aponeurosis – sheet-like structure

10 Skeletal Muscle Attachments Slide 6.5 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Sites of muscle attachment  Bones  Cartilages  C. T. coverings  i.e., aponeuroses

11 Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle Slide 6.9a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Cells are multinucleate  Nuclei are deep to the sarcolemma Figure 6.3a

12 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.9b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Sarcolemma – specialized plasma membrane  Sarcoplasmic reticulum – specialized smooth E.R.  Stores Ca ++  Required for contraction Figure 6.3a

13 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.10a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Myofibril: organelle unique to muscle  Bundles of myofilaments  Myofibrils alignment produces distinct bands  I band = light band  A band = dark band

14 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.10a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Banding Pattern depends on arrangement of proteins in myofibrils  Actin: thin  A and I bands  Myosin: thick  A bands Figure 6.3b A-band I-band

15 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.10b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Sarcomere  Contractile subunit of a muscle fiber  From “Z to Z”  One A band +  Two “half” I bands Figure 6.3b

16 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.11a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Organization of the sarcomere  Thick filaments = myosin filaments  Composed of the protein myosin  Has ATP-ase enzymes Figure 6.3c

17 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.11b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Organization of the sarcomere, con’t…  Thin filaments = actin filaments  Composed of the protein actin Figure 6.3c

18 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.12a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Myosin filaments have heads ( extensions, or cross bridges )  Myosin and actin overlap Figure 6.3d

19 Microscopic Anatomy Slide 6.12b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  At rest, there is a bare [“H”] zone that lacks actin filaments Figure 6.3d

20 Properties of Skeletal Muscle Slide 6.13 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Irritability – ability to receive and respond to a stimulus  Contractility – ability to shorten when an adequate stimulus is received

21 Nerve Stimulus to Muscles Slide 6.14 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Skeletal muscles require innervation  Motor unit  One motor neuron +  Muscle cells innervated by that neuron Figure 6.4a

22 Nerve Stimulus to Muscles Slide 6.15a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Neuromuscular junction:  communication site between a motor neuron and a muscle fiber Figure 6.5b Motor Neuron Neuromuscular Junction

23 Nerve Stimulus to Muscles Slide 6.15b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Synaptic cleft : gap between nerve and muscle  Nerve and muscle do not make direct contact Figure 6.5b

24 Transmission of Nerve Impulse to Muscle Slide 6.16a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Neurotransmitter – chemical released by motor nerve  initiates contraction  Causes sarcolemma to depolarize  For skeletal muscle: acetylcholine (Ach)

25 Transmission of Nerve Impulse to Muscle Slide 6.16a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Action of Neurotransmitter  Crosses synaptic cleft  Attaches to receptors on the sarcolemma

26 Muscle Contraction Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  An electrochemical event  Ach is the chemical  Before contraction can occur, sarcolemma must be polarized  A polarized membrane is more “+” outside and more “-” inside  Movement of ions creates “action potential”  The ability to do work

27 Muscle Contraction Slide 6.16b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Ach attaches to receptor sites  Sarcolemma becomes permeable to sodium (Na + )  Sodium rushes into the cell  Initiates “sliding filament” process

28 Muscle Contraction Slide 6.16b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Membrane of sarcoplasmic reticulum also depolarizes Ca ++ ions are released Bind to sites on actin Open attachment sites for myosin

29 The Sliding Filament Theory of Muscle Contraction Slide 6.17a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Depolarization allows myosin heads to attach to binding sites on actin  called crossbridges  ATP required Figure 6.7

30 The Sliding Filament Theory of Muscle Contraction Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Actin is pulled past myosin by movement of heads  ATP required  Myosin heads detach  ATP required  Then bind to the next site on actin  ATP required

31 The Sliding Filament Theory of Muscle Contraction Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  This continued action causes a sliding of the actin along the myosin  I band narrows  H zone narrows  A band stays the same

32 The Sliding Filament Theory of Muscle Contraction Slide 6.17b Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Actin slides past myosin  Results in shortening of the sarcomere  Muscle fiber has thousands of sarcomeres  All shorten at one time  Muscle contracts Figure 6.7
