I. Functions of Muscular SystemA. Produces Movement
– Internal vs. External« locomotion & manipulation« circulate blood & maintain
blood pressure« move fluids, food, baby
B. Maintaining Posture
C. Stabilizing Joints– tendons span across joint
D. Generation of Heat– ATP ADP + P + Energy

II. Types of Muscle*muscle cells are also called muscle fibers
myo-mys-sarco-
SHAPE Elongated cylinder shape Spindle shape
Cylinder shape w/ branching ends, intercalated disks

III. Gross Anatomy: Skeletal MuscleA. Connective Tissue Protection
– Muscle fibers are fragile– Protected by...
« Surrounded by connective tissue« Bundled together
B. Organization– Endomysium: Delicate connective
tissue sheath around individual muscle fibers
– Perimysium: Coarser membrane wrapped around several fibers (Fasicle)« Fasicle: Bundle of fibers
– Epimysium: Very tough layer surrounding many fasicles making up entire muscle« Blends together at end to form
» Tendons: cordlike» Aponeuroses: sheetlike
*Tendons & Aponeuroses attach muscle to bones, cartilage, or other connective tissue

III. Gross Anatomy: Skeletal Muscle cont'd
> Origin: site of attachment on a fixed bone
> Insertion: site of attachment on a bone that moves
> Action: function

IV. Microscopic Anatomy: Skeletal Muscle
A. Sarcolemma:– plasma membrane of muscle fiber
B. Myofibril:– organelles that fill up muscle fiber that are made up of smaller units called myofilaments
C. Myofilaments:– protein filaments that are responsible for the contraction (shortening) of muscle fiber/cell« Myosin: thick filament w/ projections« Actin: thin filament

IV. Microscopic Anatomy: Skeletal Muscle cont'd
D. Sarcoplasmic Reticulum:– smooth ER that surrounds myofibril– stores & releases Ca2+ on demand
E. TTubules:– extensions of sarcolemma that penetrate into cell– passes by each myofibril, conducts impulse– ensures each myofibril contracts at same time

IV. Microscopic Anatomy: Skeletal Muscle cont'd
F. Sarcomere:– tiny contractile unit linked together making up myofibril– one sarcomere goes from zline to zline– gives muscle banded appearance
« ABand: appear dark because thick Myosin filaments overlap with thin Actin filaments» except for small space in middle (HZone)
« IBand: appear light because only thin actin

Sliding Filament Model:• Actin slides past myosin causing shortening of muscle fiber
• Contracted Sarcomere:> I bands shorten
> Z lines move closer together
> H zone disappears
> Successive A bands move closer together
> A bands stay same length

V. Muscle Stimulation & Contraction
A. Terms:> Neurotransmitter: chemical released from axonal
terminals
> Acetylcholine (ACh): neurotransmitter for muscle contractions
> Action Potential: electrical current caused by changes in ion concentration across a membrane
> Contractility: ability to shorten/contract
> Irritability: ability to receive and respond to a stimulus
> Neuron: nerve cell
> Motor Unit: motor neuron & all cells it stimulates
> Neuromuscular Junction: nervemuscle junction
> Synaptic Cleft: gap between axonal terminal and sarcolemma

V. Muscle Stimulation & Contraction
B. Contraction:
> Nerve impulse– AP reaches axon terminal– Ca2+ voltagegated channels open & Ca2+ diffuses in
> Acetylcholine is released from axonal terminal & diffuses across the synaptic cleft– attaches to sarcolemma (receptors on chemicallygated ion channels)
> Sarcolemma becomes permeable to Na+ (leads to change in membrane voltage) – as Na+ diffuses into the cell, depolarization occurs
« opening Na+ voltagegated channels along sarcolemma– depolarization can lead to an ACTION POTENTIAL
« membrane voltage must reach threshold to generate an AP
– K+ diffuses out, repolarization wave occurs
(Depolarization Action Potential)
(Repolarization)
« Due to a certain change in membrane potential» Na+ voltagegated channels close» K+ voltagegated channels open

V. Muscle Stimulation & Contraction cont'd
B. Contraction cont'd:
> As AP travels along sarcolemma & Ttubules:– calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum
> Ca2+ allows myosin heads to attach to actin filaments (forming cross bridges)– Sliding Filament Model
> When action potential ends:– ACh broken down– Ca2+ reabsorbed by SR– Na+/K+ pump restores ion concentrations– muscle cell relaxes and returns to original length

A. AllorNone Law:
> Muscle cells contract to their fullest extent when adequate action potential is present
> Degree of contraction (muscle) depends on:– speed of muscle contraction (frequency
of stimulation)– # of motor units stimulated (recruitment)
VI. Performance of Muscle Fibers
Jan 203:54 PM
VI. Performance of Muscle Fibers cont'd
B. Muscle Tone:> resting tension> some fibers contract in response to stretch receptors in
muscles– not enough tension to cause movement– helps firm the muscle
– inactivity leads to atrophy
C. Isotonic vs Isometric Contractions:> Isotonic
– tension > resistance– muscle tension remains constant & muscle shortens
> Isometric– tension < resistance – tension increases, muscle doesn't shorten

VII. Energy Sources: ATP Supplies
A. Direct Phosphorylation:
> Creatine phosphate is coupled with ADP, then a phosphate is transferred to ADP, creating ATP
> 1520 second supply (stored ATP & CP reserves)

B. Anaerobic Respiration (glycolysis):
> Glucose broken into pyruvic acid 2 ATP/glucose
> If not enough O2, pyruvic acid Lactic Acid
> provides energy at a very fast rate, but only for 3040 seconds

VII. Energy Sources: ATP Supplies cont'd
C. Aerobic Respiration: with O2 during light activity & rest
> Glycolysis breaks glucose into pyruvic acid
> with O2 present, pyruvic acid enters mitochondria and Krebs cycle then to Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
> results in CO2, H2O, and 36 ATP per glucose
> provides much energy, but at slow rate
