Chapter 11 The Muscular System 1 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Muscular System consists only Muscle cell approximately 600 human skeletal muscles • Muscle organization affects power, range, and speed of muscle movement. • The muscle cell is called a fiber. • Sarcolemma - cell membrane • Transverse T-tubules membrane invaginations • Sarcoplasm: cytoplasm • Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR): Similar in structure to smooth endoplasmic reticulum • Forms chambers (terminal cisternae) attached to T tubules that contain concentrations of Ca 2+ • Triad formed by one T tubule and two terminal cisternae • Myofibrils: rod-like unit of a muscle cell; contain contractile proteins • Myofilaments –Thick and Thin contractile proteins responsible for muscle contraction • Endomysium – CT around each myofiber • Perimysium - surrounds fascicle 2 • Epimysium - covers whole muscle belly © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

An Introduction to the Muscular System • Muscle cells (fibers) are organized in bundles called (fascicles) specific arrangement based on muscle function • Skeletal muscles are classified by the way fascicles are organized – the relationships of fascicles to tendons • 4 patterns of fascicle organization • Parallel, Convergent, Pennate, Circular • Each fascicle fibers are parallel and surrounded by perimysium • The strength (power) of the muscle and the direction (range of motion) of its pull are determined partly by the orientation or shape of its fascicles • Longer fibers: have greater range of motion & cover greater distance • Short muscles with higher cross-sectional area have more force (tension) 4 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Fascicle Arrangement Parallel Muscles • Fibers parallel to the long axis of muscle • Most skeletal muscles are this shape • The tension developed during contractions depends on total # of myofibrils • When parallel muscle contracts it shortens and get large in diameter. • Some are broad flat bands, others are plump and cylindrical with tendons at both ends. Spindle shaped with a belly in the center • For example, biceps brachii, rectus abdominus 6 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Fascicle Arrangement - Convergent Muscles • A broad area converges on attachment site (tendon, aponeurosis, or raphe-slender band of collagen fibers) • Muscle fibers pull in DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, depending on stimulation. This allows for wider versatility. When entire muscle contracts fibers do not pull as hard as the parallel type • Fan-shaped, broad at origin and tapering to a narrower insertion; more fibers • For example, pectoralis muscles, temporalis © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 7
Fascicle Arrangement - Pennate Muscles • Form an angle with the tendon • Do not move as far as parallel muscles • Contain more muscle fibers than parallel muscles producing more tension or force but smaller range of motion • Unipennate • Fibers on one side of tendon • For example, extensor digitorum • Bipennate • Fibers on both sides of tendon • For example, rectus femoris • Multipennate • Tendon branches within muscle • For example, Deltoid 8 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Fascicle Arrangement - Circular Muscles • Also called sphincters • Open and close to guard entrances of body • Form ring around body opening • orbicularis oculi, urethral and anal sphincters 9 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Skeletal Motion and Levers (Ch 9 p. 304 -306) • Skeletal muscles attach to skeleton to produce motion. • Attaching a muscle to a lever can modify the direction, force, speed and distance of the movement produced by the muscle contraction. • A lever moves when pressure (applied force/effort) is sufficient to overcome resistance (load). • A lever works by reducing the amount of force needed to move an object or lift a load. It does this by increasing the distance through which the force acts. Levers can be used to exert a large force over a small distance at one end by exerting a small force over a greater distance at the other. applies a lot of force over a short distance Lever Components • Mechanically BONES operate as LEVERS (rigid mobile structure) • Levers move around a fixed point the FULCRUM (F) which is a JOINT. Placement of the fulcrum determines how far the levered object will move, and how much force is required to move it. The farther away from the fulcrum the less force needed. • MUSCLES provide APPLIED FORCE / EFFORT (AF) required to overcome LOAD (L) = the RESISTANCE that opposes the 10 movement © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Skeletal Motion and Levers (Ch 9 p. 304 -306) • The three classes of levers Depend on the relationship between applied force, fulcrum, and resistance 1. First-class lever Bones = levers 2. Second-class lever Muscles = effort/Force 3. Third-class lever Fulcrum= joint Moves the Load 11 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
First- Class Levers (Ch 9 p. 306) • Center fulcrum between applied force and load • Force and load are balanced • Example 1: head on the vertebral column – Load: weight of face, car – Fulcrum: joint between skull and atlas, jack – Applied force (Effort) : posterior neck muscles • Example 2: Seesaw or teeter-totter • Example 3: Scissors • Example 4: Car Jack 12 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Second-Class Levers (Ch 9 p. 306) • Center resistance between applied force and fulcrum • If the applied force is further from the fulcrum than the load, a strong resistance can be moved • A small force moves a large weight but sacrifices speed – Example 1: using the calf muscles to rise up on the toes – Example 2: Wheelbarrow is an example • Load is body weight • Fulcrum is ball of Foot (metatarsal phalangeal joint) • Applied force (effort) is contraction of the calf muscles 13 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Third-Class Levers (Ch 9 p. 306) • • • MOST COMMON levers in the body Center applied force between load and fulcrum Greater force moves smaller load Maximizes speed and distance traveled Example 1: muscles like the biceps brachii that flex the forearm – Load is the weight of the forearm and hand (plus whatever is held in the hand) – Fulcrum is elbow – Applied force (effort): contraction of biceps brachii muscle • Example 2: using a shovel 14 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Muscle Attachments to Other Tissues ORIGIN – bony attachment at STATIONARY end of muscle-does not move • one fixed point of attachment INSERTION- bony attachment to MOVABLE END of muscle • And one moving point of attachment • Most muscles originate or insert on the skeleton • Skeletal muscles shorten & pull on the two skeletal elements to which they are attached. Origin Insertion • Origin is usually proximal to insertion 16 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Tendons and Aponeuroses • Collagen fibers of the endomysium, perimysium, and epimysium join at ends of muscles to form CT (tendon) attachment to periosteum of bone. • When muscles contract they pull on the tendon that then moves the bone. • “Cable-like” cord of dense CT collagen fibers and elastic fibers (Ex: back of your hand). • Direct very little separation between bone Biceps brachii Brachialis and muscle (brachialis) • Indirect larger separation (biceps brachii) Aponeurosis: broad flat tendon. • Sparingly supplied with blood vessels and nerves. • Formation of rectus sheath from aponeuroses of the abdominal muscles. © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. 17
Muscle Interactions • Muscles work in groups to maximize efficiency • action – the effects to produce or prevent movement • Agonist (Prime Mover) • muscle that produces most of force during a joint action • produces a particular movement • Synergist • A smaller muscle that assists a larger agonist • Helps start motion or stabilize origin of agonist (fixator) • stabilizes the nearby joint • modifies the direction of movement • Antagonist • Opposes movement of a particular agonist • relaxes to give prime mover control over an action • prevents excessive movement and injury • antagonistic pairs – muscles that act on opposite sides of a joint; flexors–extensors, abductors–adductors 18 © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
