Functions
Movement – skeletal muscle contractions move the body as a whole or in parts.
Heat production – muscle cells are numerous and very active, this results in catabolism producing the majority of heat.
Posture – maintaining body positions such as standing and sitting erect

MAJOR PROPERTIES OF MUSCLE
1. Excitability – ability to be stimulated
2. Contractility – ability to contract or shorten and produce body movement
3. Extensibility – ability to extend or stretch muscles to their original length
4. Elasticity – ability to recoil to its original length.

STRUCTURE
Sarcolemma – plasma membrane of the myofibril
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum – a network of tubules and sacs that is similar but not identical to E.R.
T-tubules – extend transversely across the sarcoplasm at right angles to the long axis of the cell. Separate from the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
Triad – a triplet of tubules with a T-tubule sandwiched between two sarcoplasmic reticulums. Allows electrical impulse to travel along a T-tubule to stimulate membranes of adjacent sacs of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Membrane PotentialsResting Membrane Potential
The intracellular surface of the sarcoplasm is negatively charged compared with that of the extracellular surface of the sarcoplasm. Intracellular [K+] is higher vs. extracellular [K+] The cell membrane is more permeable to [K+]
Positively charged potassium ions readily diffuse across the membrane from intra to extracellular spaces, resulting in a –70 to –90 millivolts.
![Page 11: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Membrane PotentialsResting Membrane Potential
Equilibrium is achieved when the tendency of K+ to diffuse is opposed The increasing intracellular negative charge Shift of K+ concentration gradient
![Page 12: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Action PotentialDepolarization
Occurs when the intracellular membrane becomes less negative than the extracellular membrane.
Gated sodium channels open when the cell is stimulated. This allows positive sodium ions to diffuse into the cell. Making the intracellular space less negative.
Once the intracellular membrane becomes positive the gated sodium ion channels close.
![Page 13: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Action PotentialRepolarization
Begins as soon as the sodium ion channels close.
Thus the movement of sodium into the cell ceases and gated potassium channels open begins moving potassium out of the cell.
The potassium gated channels close when the resting membrane potential is reached.

NEUROMUSCULAR JUNCTION
Motor neurons – nerve cells along which action potentials travel to stimulate muscle fibers
Neuromuscular junction (synapse) – motor neuron axons and its branches innervating the muscle fibers
Presynaptic terminal – axon terminal that contains synaptic vesicles containing acetylcholine.
Synaptic cleft – space between pre and post synapse.
Postsynaptic terminal – sarcoplasm membrane opposite the presynaptic terminal or motor end plate.
![Page 18: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Function of Neuromuscular Junction
1. Action potential arrives at presynaptic terminal, increasing the permeability of calcium.
2. Calcium enters the presynaptic terminal and initiates the release of acetylcholine (Ach).
3. Diffusion of Ach across the synaptic cleft and binding to receptor sites on the motor end plate, causing an increase of sodium permeability of the sarcoplasm.
4. Resulting in depolarization; once the threshold has been reached an action potential begins.
5. Ach is broken down by acetylcholinesterase

MUSCLE CONTRACTION
Occurs as actin and myosin myofilaments slide past one another
Sarcomeres shorten Extends from one Z line to another.
Z line – filamentous network of protein forming a disk like structure for the attachment of actin myofilaments anchoring them in place.
I band – from one side of the Z disk to the other. Consists of only actin fibers.
A band – extends the length of the myosin filaments within a sarcomere the actin and myosin filaments overlap at both ends of the A band.
H zone – center of each A band, smaller. Only myosin filaments present.
M line – is in the middle of the H zone, consists of delicate fibers that attach to the center of myosin filaments, anchoring them
![Page 22: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

MUSCLE CONTRACTION (The Sliding Filament Model)
Muscle contraction that results in the shortening of the sarcomere without changing the length of the actin and myosin filaments.
Muscle contracts when myosin crossbridges attach to actin and the molecule bends
![Page 24: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

What happens when muscle contracts?
The Z lines move closer together
The I band becomes shorter
The A band stays at the same length
![Page 26: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Action Potential, Neuromuscular Junction and the Sarcomere Excitation and Contraction
Nerve impulse → the motor end plate → release of the neurotransmitter (acetylcholine) → binds to receptors on the motor end plate of the muscle → initiates an impulse that travels along the sarcolemma, through the T tubule, to sacs of the sarcoplasmic reticulum → calcium is released into the sarcoplasm → it binds to troponin molecules on the actin filaments → tropomyosin moves to expose myosin attachment sites on the actin myofilaments → a cross bridge is formed between when the head of the myosin bind with the actin myofilaments
![Page 27: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Action Potential, Neuromuscular Junction and the Sarcomere Excitation and Contraction
During contraction ATP is broken down to ADP to produce energy to pull the thin filaments toward the center of each sarcomere
This cycle repeats several times per second, as long as ATP is present
![Page 29: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Muscle Relaxation
After the impulse is over, the sarcoplasmic reticulum begins actively pumping calcium back into sacs.
As calcium is stripped from troponin molecules in the actin (thin) filaments, tropomyosin returns to its position, blocking the active sites of the actin filaments.
Myosin cross bridges are prevented from binding to actin and thus can no longer sustain contraction.
Since the thick and thin myofilaments are no longer connected, the muscle fiber returns to its resting length
![Page 31: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Muscle Twitch, Summation, Tetanus and Recruitment
Muscle TwitchContraction of a muscle in response to a stimulus that causes an action potential in one or more muscle fibers Lag or Latent Phase – the time period between the stimulus of the
motor neuron and the beginning of contraction. Stimulus Action potential along the axon of the motor neuron Release of acetylcholine from the presynaptic terminal Opening of Na channels Release of Ca from the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca binds to troponin Tropomyosin exposes myosin binding sites Cross bridge formation
![Page 32: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Muscle Twitch, Summation, Tetanus and Recruitment
Contraction Phase – contraction of the muscle Cross bridge movement and cycling Increase the tension produced by the muscle fibers
Relaxation Phase – relaxation of the muscle Ca diffuses away from the troponin molecules Ca is actively transported back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum Tropomyosin blocks the myosin binding sites Inhibition of cross bridge formation Tension decreases
![Page 33: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Muscle Twitch, Summation, Tetanus and Recruitment
Summation
Increasing the force of contraction of the muscle fibers within the muscle
Rapid stimulation
As the frequency of action potentials increases the frequency of contraction increases.
![Page 34: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Muscle Twitch, Summation, Tetanus and Recruitment
Incomplete Tetanus – muscle fibers partially relax between contractions.
Tetanus – action potentials are produced so quickly that there is no relaxation.
Build up of Ca in the myofibrils
Ca is released at a higher rate from the sarcoplasmic reticulum that its uptake
![Page 35: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Muscle Twitch, Summation, Tetanus and Recruitment
Recruitment
Increases the number of muscle fibers contacting
As the number of motor units stimulated increases, the more muscle fibers are stimulated to contract
![Page 36: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
ENERGY REQUIREMENTS
ATP is the immediate energy source of muscle. It must be synthesized continuously to sustain muscle contraction.
Creatine Phosphate – resting conditions, energy from aerobic respiration is used to synthesize creatine phosphate.
This accumulates in the cell and functions to store energy to synthesize ATP.
Creatine phosphate stores are quickly depleted during intense muscular contractions. Sustains maximum contraction for 8 to 10 seconds.
![Page 37: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
ENERGY REQUIREMENTSAerobic vs. Anaerobic
Anaerobic Respiration – absence of oxygen breakdown of glucose to produce 2 ATP molecules and lactic acid
Occurs in the cytoplasm of cells
Less efficient than aerobic respiration but quicker synthesis of ATP.
Used for short periods of intense exercise, such as sprinting provides up to 3 minutes of energy.
Aerobic Respiration – requires oxygen and breaks down glucose to produce ATP, Carbon dioxide, and water. Occurs in the mitochondria Net gain of 38 ATP molecules
per glucose molecule. Can utilize fatty acids and
amino acids to generate ATP
![Page 38: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
OXYGEN DEBT/EXCESS
After intense exercise, the rate of aerobic metabolism remains elevated for a time. The oxygen taken in the body is above that needed for resting metabolism
This reestablishes ATP and creatine phosphate levels in muscle fibers.
![Page 39: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
FATIGUE
Psychological fatigue Most common type of fatigue
Muscle Fatigue ATP is utilized faster than it is produced Lactic acid build up Force of contractions become weaker
![Page 40: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
TYPES OF MUSCLE CONTRACTIONS
1. Isometric contraction – length of the muscle does not change, but the tension increases during contraction process. Postural muscles.
2. Isotonic contraction – the amount of tension produced by the muscle remains constant but the length of the muscle changes. Voluntary movements.
3. Concentric contractions – isotonic contractions in which muscle tension increases as the muscle shortens
4. Eccentric contractions – isotonic contractions in which tension is maintained as the muscle lengthens
![Page 41: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
TYPES OF MUSCLE FIBERSFast and Slow Twitch Fibers
Fast Twitch – low oxidative muscle fibers, respond rapidly to stimuli and contain myosin molecules that break down ATP more rapidly than slow twitch. Less developed blood supply Few myoglobin Fewer and smaller mitochondria Large stores of glycogen and are well adapted to anaerobic
respiration Fatigue occurs quickly
![Page 42: Muscular System](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020117/55cf99d5550346d0339f6783/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
TYPES OF MUSCLE FIBERSFast and Slow Twitch Fibers
Slow Twitch – high oxidative muscle fibers. Contract slower as compared with fast twitch. Better developed blood supply More mitochondria More fatigue resistant Aerobic respiration Contain large amounts of myoglobin
