What is the purpose of muscle? Movement Posture Stabilize joints Generate heat
Types of Muscle • Compare all three muscle types. • Look at: • Location/number of nuclei • Associated structures • What controls the muscle contraction? • You should be able to answer the “Practice” questions on page 301when finished.
Structure of Skeletal Muscle Muscle (wrapped in fascia, epimysium) Fascicles (bundles of muscle fibers, wrapped in perimysium) Muscle Fibers (cells, wrapped in endomysium) Myofibrils Filaments
Skeletal Muscle Fibers • Skeletal muscle fiber = single muscle cell • Multinucleated • Striated • Myofibrils: myosin (thick filaments) and actin (thin filaments) • Myosin and actin alternate forming striations (light and dark areas)
Skeletal Muscle Fibers • Sarcomeres – pattern of actin/myosin alternating throughout muscle fiber • Contractile unit of muscle • Sarcolemma– cell membrane of muscle cells • Sarcoplasm – cytoplasm of muscle cells

Gross Muscle Anatomy • Muscle • Epimysium • Endomysium • Perimysium • Fascicle • Muscle fiber/cell • Myofibrils • Sarcolemma • Sarcoplasm
Skeletal Muscle Layout • Actin • Myosin • Z line • I band • A band • H zone • Sarcomere • Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
Muscle Filaments (Myofibrils) • Myosin: composed of many myosin fibers • Heads and tails • Forms cross-bridge with actin • Heads of myosin come in contact with actin during muscle contraction • Actin: double strands twisted into a helix • Troponin – wraps around actin • Tropomyosin – contact point for myosin
Muscle Filaments: Actin • Troponin • Tropomyosin • Thin filament
Muscle Filaments: Myosin • Heads • Tails • Thick filament
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum • Corresponds with the endoplasmic reticulum in other cells • Cisternae • Enlarged portions of SR on either side of the T tubule • Transverse tubules (T tubules) • Extends into sarcoplasm, contains extracellular fluid
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum • T tubule • Sarcoplasmic reticulum • Sarcomere • Myosin • Actin • Sarcolemma • Mitochondria • Myofibril
Muscle Contraction Occurs when thin and thick filaments slide past one another Shortens sarcomeres/whole muscle cell Stimulated by neurons
Neuromuscular Junction • Motor neurons control skeletal muscle • Neuromuscular junction: where nerve cell synapses with the muscle • Motor end plate: specialized part of muscle to receive neural signals (higher amount of mitochondria, nuclei/SR)
Neuromuscular Junction • One motor neuron can innervate many muscle cells • Motor unit: neuron AND the muscle(s) it controls
Synaptic Cleft Separation between the neuron and the muscle Nerve fiber releases synaptic vesicles containing neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft
Neurotransmitter for Skeletal Muscle Contraction • Acetylcholine (ACh) • Increases membrane permeability to sodium • Sodium influx causes muscle impulse which transmits the contraction along the muscle • Through the sarcoplasmic reticulum, cisternae, T tubules
Sliding Filament Theory • Sarcomeres shorten through movement of actin and myosin sliding past one another, not shortening themselves • H zone, A bands narrow • Z lines come closer together • Needs ATP (energy), Ca2+

Sliding Filament Theory • Summarize the contraction cycle in your textbooks (pg. 292) • Summarize relaxation • What enzyme is needed? What does this enzyme do? • When ACh breaks down, what happens?
Myoglobin • Cellular respiration is critical in muscle contraction • Myoglobin stores oxygen in muscle cells • Gives muscle the reddish/brown color • Similar to what other molecule?
Anaerobic Threshold • Lactic acid threshold • Muscle forms lactic acid in absence of oxygen • Anaerobic respiration
Muscle Fatigue • Loss of ability to contract • Caused by: decrease in blood flow, ion imbalances, accumulation of lactic acid in muscle tissue • Cramps: sustained contraction of muscle • Changes in extracellular matrix of muscle causes extended contraction
Heat Production Muscle is a major source of body heat Blood transfers heat throughout body
Fast Twitch vs. Slow Twitch Muscles Use your textbook to compare and contrast fast twitch and slow twitch muscles Give some examples for the ideal muscle types for different activities Use human and animals in your answer.

Muscles of the Head http://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/head/head1b.htm Muscles of facial expression Muscles of mastication
Muscles of Facial Expression • Epicranius • Frontalis • Temporalis • Orbicularis occuli • Orbicularis oris • Buccinator
Muscles of Mastication Masseter – elevates mandible Temporalis – elevates mandible
Muscles of the Neck Sternocleidomastoid – pulls head to one side, flexes neck, elevates sternum
Muscles of the Pectoral Girdle Trapezius – rotates scapula, pull scapula (raise, medial, downward) Rhomboid major – connects scapula with vertebrae Rhomboid minor – smaller than rhomboid major, connects scapula with vertebrae Levator scapulae – elevates scapula
Muscles of the Pectoral Girdle • Levator scapulae • Trapezius • Rhomboid major and minor • (external oblique) • (Latissimusdorsi) • (Deltoid)
Before we can discuss the movement of the arm… • We need to get into the muscle actions: • Flexor – flexion – bend at joint so angle between two parts gets closer together • Extensor – extension – straightening joint so angle between two parts increases • Abductors – abduction – movement away from the midline • Adductors – adduction – movement toward the midline • Rotators – movement around an axis
