Muscle Types



Skeletal muscles – attach to the body’s
skeleton
Cardiac – heart
Smooth – walls of hollow organs such as the
stomach, urinary bladder, intestines, and
respiratory tract

Tendons and Ligaments


Tendon – connective tissue that attaches
muscle to bone
Ligament – connective tissue that attaches
bone to bone
Tendons and Ligaments (cont.)
Muscle Functions




Produces movement
Generates heat
Maintains posture
Stabilizes joints
Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle

Myofibrils – long ribbon-like organelles

Have striations




A band – dArk color
I band – light color
Sarcomere – a segment of a myofibril
Myofilaments – threadlike proteins consisting
of actin and myosin


Actin – thin filaments
Myosin – thick filaments
Microscopic Anatomy of Skeletal Muscle
Skeletal Muscle Activity



Electronic impulses originate in the brain
Electricity travels through the nervous system
Nerves attach to muscle fibers
Skeletal Muscle Activity

Electricity causes SR to release Ca2+ ions which
start myosin heads to bind with actin tails



Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) – a specialized smooth ER
that store calcium (Ca2+)
Example: myosin - fish hooks
actin - chains
The end result is muscle contraction
Skeletal Muscle Activity
Types of Body Movements


Origin – attached to the
immovable or less
movable bone
Insertion – attached to
the movable bone

When the muscle
contracts, the insertion
moves toward the origin.
Types of Body Movements

Flexion – a movement that decreases the
angle of the joint and brings two bones closer
together
Types of Body Movements

Extension – a movement that increases the
angle, or distance, between two bones or
parts of the body
Types of Body Movements


Adduction – moving a limb toward the body
midline
Abduction – moving a limb away (generally
on the frontal plane) from the midline
Types of Body Movements

Rotation – movement of a bone around its
longitudinal axis

Ex. – Shoulder and head
Types of Body Movements

Circumduction – a combination of flexion,
extension, abduction, and adduction
commonly seen in ball-and-socket joints such
as the arm

The limb as a whole outlines a cone

Anterior Muscles

Sternocleidomastoid



One head of the muscle
arises from the sternum
and the other arises from
the clavicle
When both muscles
contract, they flex the
neck
When one muscle
contracts, the head
rotates toward the
opposite side
Anterior Muscles

Pectoralis Major


Covers the upper part of the chest
Adduct and flex the arm
Anterior Muscles

Pectoralis Minor


Lies deep to the pectoralis major
Draws down the scapula or raises the ribs
Anterior Muscles

Intercostal Muscles


