The Muscular System
Muscle Organization & Function
(Interactive pgs. 327-330)
The Muscular System
• Consists only of skeletal muscles
Muscle Organization
and Function
• Muscle organization affects power,
range, and speed of muscle movement
Fascicles
• Muscle cells (fibers) are organized in
bundles (fascicles)
Classification of Skeletal Muscles
• By the way fascicles are organized
• By relationships of fascicles to tendons
Organization of
Skeletal Muscle Fibers
• 4 patterns of fascicle organization:
–
–
–
–
parallel
convergent
pennate
circular
Parallel Muscles
Figure 11–1a
Parallel Muscles
• Fibers parallel to the long axis of
muscle
• e.g., biceps brachii
Parallel Muscle Body
• The center or body of the muscle
thickens when parallel muscle
contracts
• Parallel muscles contract about 30%
Parallel Muscle Tension
• Depends on total number of myofibrils
• Directly relates to cross section of
muscle
• 1 in.2 (6.45 cm2) of cross section
develops 50 lb (23 kg) of tension
Convergent Muscles
Figure 11–1b
Convergent Muscles
• A broad area converges on attachment
site (tendon, aponeurosis, or raphe)
• Muscle fibers pull in different
directions, depending on stimulation
• e.g., pectoralis muscles
Pennate Muscles
Figure 11–1c, d, e
Pennate Muscles
• Unipennate:
– fibers on 1 side of tendon
– e.g., extensor digitorum
• Bipennate:
– fibers on both sides of tendon
– e.g., rectus femoris
Pennate Muscles
• Multipennate:
– tendon branches within muscle
– e.g., deltoid
Pennate Muscles
• Form an angle with the tendon
• Do not move as far as parallel muscles
• Contain more myofibrils than parallel
muscles
• Develop more tension than parallel
muscles
Circular Muscles
Figure 11–1f
Circular Muscles
• Also called sphincters
• Open and close to guard entrances of
body
• e.g., obicularis oris
Skeletal Motion
• Skeletal muscles attach to skeleton,
produce motion
• Type of muscle attachment affects
power, range, and speed of muscle
movement
Levers
• Mechanically, each bone is a lever (a
rigid, moving structure):
– and each joint a fulcrum (a fixed point)
• Muscles provide applied force (AF):
– required to overcome resistance (R)
Functions of a Lever
• To change:
– direction of an AF
– distance and speed of movement
produced by an AF
– effective strength of an AF
3 Classes of Levers
• Depend on the relationship between
applied force, fulcrum, and resistance:
– first class
– second class
– third class
PLAY
First, Second, and Third-Class Levers
First-Class Levers
Figure 11–2a
First-Class Levers
• Seesaw is an example
• Center fulcrum between applied force
and resistance
• Force and resistance are balanced
Second–Class Levers
Figure 11–2b
Second-Class Levers
• Wheelbarrow is an example
• Center resistance between applied
force and fulcrum
• A small force moves a large weight
Third-Class Levers
Figure 11–2c
Third-Class Levers
• Most common levers in the body
• Center applied force between
resistance and fulcrum
• Greater force moves smaller resistance
• Maximizes speed and distance traveled
KEY CONCEPT
• Skeletal muscles can shorten to 70% of
resting length
• Power, speed, and range of movement
• Depend on positions of muscle
attachment
• Relative to joints
How are actions of a muscle
based on the relative positions
of its origin and insertion?
Origins and Insertions
• Muscles have 1 fixed point of
attachment (origin) and 1 moving point
of attachment (insertion)
• Most muscles originate or insert on the
skeleton
• Origin is usually proximal to insertion
Actions
• Movements produced by muscle
contraction
• Body movements
– e.g., flexion, extension, adduction, etc.
• Described in terms of bone, joint, or
region
How do muscles interact to
produce or oppose movements?
Muscle Interactions
• Muscles work in groups to maximize
efficiency
• Smaller muscles reach maximum
tension first, followed by larger,
primary muscles
Muscle Terminology
Based on Function
• Agonist (prime mover):
– produces a particular movement
• Antagonist:
– opposes movement of a particular agonist
Muscle Terminology
Based on Function
• Synergist:
– a smaller muscle that assists a larger
agonist
– helps start motion or stabilize origin of
agonist (fixator)
Muscle Opposition
• Agonists and antagonists work in pairs:
– when 1 contracts, the other stretches
– i.e., flexors–extensors, abductors–
adductors, etc.
How does the name of a muscle
help identify its location,
appearance, or function?
Names of Skeletal Muscles
• Correct names of muscles include the
term muscle
• Exceptions:
– platysma
– diaphragm
