ELAINE N. MARIEB EIGHTH EDITION 6 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings PowerPoint ® Lecture Slide Presentation by Jerry L. Cook, Sam Houston University ESSENTIALS OF HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY PART A The Muscular System
2
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Muscular System Function of Muscles: Produce movement Maintain posture Stabilize joints Generate heat Three basic muscle types are found in the body Skeletal muscle Cardiac muscle Smooth muscle
3
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Characteristics of Muscles Muscle cells are elongated, and are called muscle fibers (muscle cell = muscle fiber) Contraction of muscles is due to the movement of microfilaments All muscles share some terminology Prefix myo refers to muscle Prefix mys refers to muscle Prefix sarco refers to flesh

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skeletal Muscle Characteristics Skeletal Muscle: Most are attached by tendons to bones Multinucleate – more than 1 nucleus Striated – have visible banding Voluntary – subject to conscious control Cells are surrounded and bundled by connective tissue
5
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Connective Tissue Wrappings of Skeletal Muscle Endomysium – around single muscle fiber Perimysium – around a fascicle (bundle) of fibers Epimysium – covers the entire skeletal muscle Fascia – on the outside of the epimysium Figure 6.1
6
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Skeletal Muscle Attachments Muscles attach to bones by: Tendons – cord-like structure Aponeuroses – sheet-like structure Sites of muscle attachment Bones Cartilages Connective tissue coverings
7
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Smooth Muscle Characteristics Smooth Muscle: Has no striations Spindle-shaped cells Single nucleus Involuntary – no conscious control Found mainly in the walls of hollow organs Figure 6.2a
8
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Cardiac Muscle Characteristics Cardiac Muscle: Has striations Usually has a single nucleus Joined to another muscle cell at an intercalated disc Involuntary Found only in the heart Figure 6.2b

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle Sarcolemma – specialized plasma membrane Sarcoplasmic reticulum – specialized smooth endoplasmic reticulum Sarcomere – contractile unit of a muscle fiber Figure 6.3a
10
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Figure 6.3b Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle Myofibril Bundles of myofilaments – actin & myosin Myofibrils are aligned to give distinct bands I band = light band A band = dark band
11
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle Organization of the sarcomere Thick filaments = myosin filaments Made of the protein myosin Thin filaments = actin filaments Composed of the protein actin Figure 6.3c
12
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle Myosin filaments have heads (extensions, or cross bridges) At rest, there is a bare zone that lacks actin filaments Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) – stores calcium used in contractions - During contraction myosin & actin slide past eachother Figure 6.3d
13
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Nerve Stimulus to Muscles Irritability –receive and respond to stimulus Contractility – shorten when stimulated Skeletal muscles must be stimulated by a nerve to contract Motor unit One neuron Muscle cells stimulated by that neuron Figure 6.4a
14
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Nerve Stimulus to Muscles Neuromuscular junctions – association site of nerve and muscle (where they meet) Figure 6.5b
15
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Nerve Stimulus to Muscles Synaptic cleft – gap between nerve and muscle Nerve and muscle do not touch Area between nerve and muscle filled with interstitial fluid Neurotransmitters travel across space Figure 6.5b
16
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Transmission of Nerve Impulse to Muscle Neurotransmitter acetylcholine – chemical released by nerve upon arrival of impulse Acetylcholine attaches to receptors on the sarcolemma of muscle Sarcolemma becomes permeable to sodium (Na + ) Sodium rushes into the cell and generates an action potential (stimulus) for contraction Once started, muscle contraction cannot be stopped
17
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Sliding Filament Theory of Muscle Contraction Activation by nerve causes myosin heads (crossbridges) to attach to binding sites on actin Myosin heads then bind to the next site actin This continued action slides myosin along actin The result is that the muscle is shortened (contracted) Figure 6.7

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings The Sliding Filament Theory Figure 6.8
19
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle Skeletal Muscle Contraction: Muscle fiber contraction is “all or none” Within a skeletal muscle, not all fibers may be stimulated during the same interval Different combinations of muscle fiber contractions may give differing responses Graded responses – different degrees of skeletal muscle shortening
20
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Types of Graded Responses Twitch Single, brief contraction Not a normal muscle function Figure 6.9a–b
21
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Types of Graded Responses Tetanus (summing of contractions) One contraction is immediately followed by another Contraction is smooth and sustained Figure 6.9a–b
22
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Muscle Response to Strong Stimuli Muscle force depends upon the number of fibers stimulated More fibers contracting results in greater muscle tension Muscles can continue to contract unless they run out of energy
23
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Energy for Muscle Contraction Energy for Muscle Contraction: First, muscles used stored ATP for energy Bonds of ATP are broken to release energy (lasts only few seconds) After this initial time, cells need to undergo aerobic or anaerobic respiration to produce energy for contraction
24
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Energy for Muscle Contraction Aerobic Respiration Occurs in the mitochondria Glucose is broken down to carbon dioxide, water and ATP (energy) This is a slower reaction that requires continuous oxygen Figure 6.10b
25
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Energy for Muscle Contraction Anaerobic glycolysis Breaks down glucose without oxygen Glucose is broken down to pyruvic acid, then lactic acid, to produce some ATP Not as efficient as aerobic respiration Build up of lactic acid Produces muscle fatigue Figure 6.10c
26
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Types of Muscle Contractions Isotonic contractions Myofilaments are able to slide past each other during contractions The muscle shortens Isometric contractions Tension in the muscles increases The muscle is unable to shorten Different fibers contract at different times to provide muscle tone
27
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Muscles and Body Movements Movement is attained due to a muscle moving an attached bone Muscles are attached to at least two points Origin – attachment to an immoveable bone Insertion – attachment to a movable bone Figure 6.12
28
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Effects of Exercise on Muscle Results of increased muscle use Increase in muscle size Increase in muscle strength Increase in muscle efficiency Muscle becomes more fatigue resistant
29
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Types of Ordinary Body Movements Types of body movements due to muscles Flexion: brings bones closer together Extension: opposite of flex, increases distance between bones Rotation: movement around longitudinal axis (shaking head no) Abduction: moving limb away from body Adduction: opposite, move limb toward body Circumduction: proximal end is stationary and distal end moves in a circle
30
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Body Movements Figure 6.13a–c
31
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Body Movements Figure 6.13d
32
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Special Movements Dorsifelxion: toes up, walking on heels Plantar flexion: toes down, walking on toes Inversion: turn sole medially (in toward body) Eversion: turn sole laterally (away from body) Supination: turn palm up (facing anteriorly) Pronation: turn palm down (facing posteriorly) Opposition: ability to move thumb to touch other fingers
33
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Types of Muscles Prime mover (Agonist) – muscle with the major responsibility for a certain movement Antagonist – muscle that opposes or reverses a prime mover Synergist – muscle that aids a prime mover in a movement and helps prevent rotation Fixator – stabilizes the origin of a prime mover
34
Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Naming of Skeletal Muscles Direction of muscle fibers: Example: rectus (straight) Relative size of the muscle: Example: maximus (largest) Location of the muscle: Example: temporalis (temporal bone) Number of origins: Example: triceps (three heads) Shape of the muscle Example: deltoid (triangular) Action of the muscle Example: flexor and extensor
