Functions of the
Musculoskeletal System
• Gives the body shape
• Protects internal organs
• Provides for movement
• Consists of more than 600 muscles
22
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Types of Muscle (1 of 2)
• Skeletal (voluntary) muscle
– Attached to the bones of the body
• Smooth (involuntary) muscle
– Carry out the automatic muscular
functions of the body
23
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Types of Muscle (2 of 2)
• Cardiac muscle
– Involuntary muscle
– Has own blood supply and electrical
system
– Can tolerate interruptions of blood
supply for only very short periods
24
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
The Respiratory System
25
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Diaphragm
• Has characteristics of both voluntary and
involuntary muscles
• Dome-shaped muscle
• Divides thorax from abdomen
• Contracts during inhalation
• Relaxes during exhalation
26
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Breathing Process: Inhalation
• Diaphragm and intercostal muscles
contract, increasing the size of the
thoracic cavity.
• Pressure in the lungs decreases.
• Air travels to the lungs.
27
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Breathing Process: Exhalation
• Diaphragm and intercostal muscles
relax.
• As the muscles relax, all
dimensions of the thorax decrease.
• Pressure in the lungs increases.
• Air flows out of the lungs.
28
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Exchange of Oxygen and
Carbon Dioxide
• Oxygen-rich air is
delivered to alveoli
with inspiration.
• Oxygen diffuses into
the blood.
• The body does not
use all the inhaled
oxygen.
29
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Control of Breathing
• Brain stem controls breathing.
– Increases breathing rate if the carbon
dioxide level in blood becomes too
high
• Hypoxic drive is a “backup system.”
– Activates when oxygen levels fall to
stimulate breathing
30
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Normal Breathing
Characteristics
• Normal rate and depth
• Regular rhythm
• Good breath sounds in both lungs
• Regular rise and fall movements
in the chest
• Easy, not labored
31
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Normal Breathing Rates
Adults
12 to 20 breaths/min
Children
18 to 34 breaths/min
Infants
30 to 60 breaths/min
p 109
32

41
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Physiology of the Circulatory
System (1 of 2)
ALL
• Pulse
– The wave of blood through the
arteries formed when the left
ventricle contracts
– Can be felt where an artery passes
over a bone near the skin surface
42
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Physiology of the Circulatory
System (2 of 2)
ALL
• Blood pressure
– Amount of force exerted against walls of
arteries
 Systole: Left ventricle contracts
 Diastole: Left ventricle relaxes
• Perfusion
– Circulation of blood within an organ or
tissue
– If inadequate, the patient goes into shock.
43

• The nervous system controls the body’s
voluntary and involuntary actions.
• Somatic nervous system
–Regulates voluntary actions
• Autonomic nervous system
–Controls involuntary body functions
44

Central Nervous System (2 of 2)
46
Chapter 4: Human Anatomy and Physiology
Peripheral Nervous System
• Links the organs of the body to the central
nervous system.
• Sensory nerves carry information from the
body to the central nervous system.
• Motor nerves carry information from the
central nervous system to the muscles of
the body.
