support and protection for tissues, and function together
with the muscular system to make movements

they different?

The Muscular System
or “Everything you ever
wanted to know about
Muscles, but were afraid to
ask” !!!
Did you know that ?
- more than 50% of body weight
is muscle !
- And muscle is made up of
proteins and water
There are four characteristics associated
with muscle tissue:
 Excitability
- Tissue can receive & respond to stimulation
 Contractility
- Tissue can shorten & thicken
 Extensibility
- Tissue can lengthen
 Elasticity
- After contracting or lengthening, tissue
always wants to return to its resting state
The characteristics of muscle tissue enable it to
perform some important functions, including:
 Movement – both voluntary & involuntary
 Maintaining posture
 Supporting soft tissues within body cavities
 Guarding entrances & exits of the body
 Maintaining body temperature
Info About Muscles
• Only body tissue able
to contract
• create movement by
flexing and extending
joints
• Body energy
converters (many
muscle cells contain
many mitochondria)
The Muscular System
• Muscles are responsible for all movement
of the body
• There are three basic types of muscle
– Skeletal
– Cardiac
– Smooth

Classification of Muscle
SkeletalCardiacfound in limbs found in heart
SmoothFound in
viscera
Striated, multi- Striated, 1
nucleated
nucleus
Not striated, 1
nucleus
voluntary
involuntary
involuntary
Characteristics of Muscle
• Skeletal and smooth muscle are elongated
• Muscle cell = muscle fiber
• Contraction of a muscle is due to movement
of microfilaments (protein fibers)
• All muscles share some terminology
– Prefixes myo and mys refer to muscle
– Prefix sarco refers to flesh
Shapes of Muscles
•
•
•
•
Triangular- shoulder, neck
Spindle- arms, legs
Flat- diaphragm, forehead
Circular- mouth, anus
Skeletal Muscle
• Most are attached by tendons to bones
• Cells have more than one nucleus
(multinucleated)
• Striated- have stripes, banding
• Voluntary- subject to conscious control
• Tendons are mostly made of collagen fibers
• Found in the limbs
• Produce movement, maintain posture,
generate heat, stabilize joints
Structure of skeletal muscle
• Each cell (fiber) is long and cylindrical
• Muscle fibers are multi-nucleated
• Typically 50-60mm in diameter, and up
to 10cm long
• The contractile elements of
skeletal muscle cells are
myofibrils
Skeletal muscle - Summary
• Voluntary movement
of skeletal parts
• Spans joints and
attached to skeleton
• Multi-nucleated,
striated, cylindrical
fibres
Smooth Muscle
•
•
•
•
•
No striations
Spindle shaped
Single nucleus
Involuntary- no conscious control
Found mainly in the walls of hollow organs
Smooth muscle
• Lines walls of viscera
• Found in longitudinal or
circular arrangement
• Alternate contraction of
circular & longitudinal
muscle in the intestine
leads to peristalsis
Structure of smooth muscle
• Spindle shaped uni-nucleated cells
• Striations not observed
• Actin and myosin filaments are present(
protein fibers)
Smooth muscle - Summary
• Found in walls of
hollow internal
organs
• Involuntary
movement of
internal organs
• Elongated, spindle
shaped fibre with
single nucleus
Cardiac Muscle
•
•
•
•
•
Striations
Branching cells
Involuntary
Found only in the heart
Usually has a single nucleus, but can have
more than one
Cardiac muscle
•
•
•
•
Main muscle of heart
Pumping mass of heart
Critical in humans
Heart muscle cells
behave as one unit
• Heart always contracts
to it’s full extent
Structure of cardiac muscle
• Cardiac muscle cells (fibres) are
short, branched and interconnected
• Cells are striated & usually have 1
nucleus
• Adjacent cardiac cells are joined
via electrical synapses (gap
junctions)
• These gap junctions appear as
dark lines and are called
intercalated discs
Cardiac muscle - Summary
• Found in the heart
• Involuntary rhythmic
contraction
• Branched, striated
fibre with single
nucleus and
intercalated discs

Introductory Questions
Where is skeletal muscle found in your body?
Attached to bone.
(Smooth muscle lines organs, and cardiac muscle is found
in the heart.)
What is the function of skeletal muscle?
Voluntary movement
Stability (posture)
Communication (facial expression, speech)
Control of body openings
Heat production- 85% of body heat is generated by
muscles providing the proper environment for enzymes
and therefore metabolism
Types of Responses
• Twitch– A single brief contraction
– Not a normal muscle function
• Tetanus
– One contraction immediately followed by
another
– Muscle never completely returns to a relaxed
state
– Effects are compounded
Where Does the Energy Come
From?
• Energy is stored in the muscles in the form
of ATP
• ATP comes from the breakdown of glucose
during Cellular Respiration
• This all happens in the Mitochondria of the
cell
• When a muscle is fatigued (tired) it is
unable to contract because of lack of
Oxygen
Exercise and Muscles
• Isotonic- muscles shorten and movement
occurs ( most normal exercise)
• Isometric- tension in muscles increases, no
movement occurs (pushing one hand against
the other)
How are Muscles Attached to
Bone?
• Origin-attachment to a movable bone
• Insertion- attachment to an immovable
bone
• Muscles are always attached to at least 2
points
• Movement is attained due to a muscle
moving an attached bone
Muscle Attachments
Insertion
Origin
Skeletal Muscle Attachments
 Epimysium blends into a connective
tissue attachment
 Tendon – cord-like structure
 Aponeuroses – sheet-like structure
 Sites of muscle attachment
 Bones
 Cartilages
 Connective tissue coverings
Connective Tissue Wrappings of
Skeletal Muscle
 Epimysium –
covers the
entire skeletal
muscle
 Fascia – on the
outside of the
epimysium
Connective Tissue Wrappings of
Skeletal Muscle
 Endomysium –
around a single
muscle fiber
 Perimysium –
around a
fascicle
(bundle) of
fibers
Word Parts/Meanings
Fascia- band or bundle
Epi-upon
Peri- around
Endo- inner
Mys- muscle
Sarco-flesh
Lemma- husk
Gross Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle
• Turn to page 185
in text book and
draw/label the
diagram of a
skeletal muscle.
Be very detailed.

A Sarcomere
Twizzler analogy
Many packages of
Twizzlers = Fascicle
Find a Fascicle on
your diagram.
Twizzler analogy 2
1 package of
Twizzlers =
Muscle fiber
The packaging =
Sarcolemma
Twizzler analogy 3
1 bundle of twizzlers =
myofibril
Twizzler analogy 4
1 Twizzler strand =
Filament
Compare the Muscle Fiber to
Pull and Peel Twizzlers
How amazing is that?
