25
``` – limbs – pectoral girdle – pelvic girdle • generally for movement – forms system of levers to transmit muscle forces ```
Appendicular skeleton
26
– covered by periosteum – thin outer shell of compact bone surrounding inner spongy bone – filling of spongy bone containing red marrow (produces blood cells) – central cavity containing yellow marrow (fatty connective tissue)
A typical long bone
27
• membrane for attachment of tendons & ligaments
Periosteum
28
Compact bone composed of units called
Osteons
29
Arranged in concentric circles around Haversian canals
Osteocytes (cells)
30
Contains blood vessles
Haversian canals
31
Threadlike cytoplasmic extensions connecting osteocytes
Canaliculi
32
– develop from cartilage templates during endochondral bone development
Long bones
33
– develop from noncartilage connective tissue by intramembranous bone development
Other bones (such as flat bones of skull)
34
Bone is constantly remodeled due to
Osteoblasts | Osteoclasts
35
Cells that produce bone | • become osteocytes as bone matrix forms
Osteoblasts
36
Moving multinucleate cells that break down bone
Osteoclasts
37
Junctions of two or more bones
Joints
38
– sutures of the skull
Immovable joints
39
– joints of cartilage between vertebrae that absorb shock
Slightly movable joints
40
– enclosed by joint capsule lined with membrane that secretes synovial fluid – ligaments – help convert muscle contractions into movement
Freely Movable Joints
41
Connective tissue bands that reinforce joint capsule, connect bones, & limit movement in joints
Ligaments
42
• In vertebrates and most invertebrates – muscle tissue contracts (shortens) – moves body parts by pulling on them
Muscular System
43
Three types of muscle
– skeletal – smooth – cardiac muscle
44
Connect to bones on each side of joints
Muscles
45
Connective tissue, attaches muscles to bones
Tendon
46
Skeletal muscles act antagonistically through
Agonist and Antagonist
47
Muscle that produces a particular action
Agonist
48
Muscles that produces the opposite movement
Antagonist
49
– organ made up of muscle fibers (cells) in bundles wrapped in connective tissue
Skeletal muscle (such as biceps)
50
``` consist of – threadlike myofibrils – composed of 2 types of smaller myofilaments – myosin filaments: thick filaments – actin filaments: thin filaments ```
Muscle fibers (cells)
51
Muscle contraction occurs when sarcomeres shorten. | Actin and Myosin do not shorten. They slide past each other.
Sliding Filament Model
52
• A group of skeletal muscle fibers stimulated by a single motor neuron • Muscles requiring more refined motion are innervated by motor units that connect with fewer muscle fibers. • Motor recruitment – messages from brain activate motor neurons • The more motor units recruited, the stronger the contractions
A Motor Unit
53
– activated by brief electrical stimulus
Simple twitch
54
Greater tension than simple twitch | – twitches add together when stimulus is received before previous contraction is complete
Summation
55
Extreme summation – smooth, sustained contraction – series of stimuli timed very close together
Tetanus
56
– constant state of partial contraction in readiness | – controlled by motor neurons
Muscle Tone
57
* Specialized for endurance activities | * Contract slowly, fatigue slowly
Slow-Oxidative Fibers
58
* Specialized for rapid response | * Contract fast, intermediate rate of fatigue
Fast-Oxidative Fibers
59
Rich in mitochondria, obtain most of their ATP from aerobic respiration • Red color due to high myoglobin content – red pigment that stores oxygen
Both
60
* Generate high power for a brief period * Contract fast, fatigue quickly, have few mitochondria, use glycolysis as a major pathway for ATP synthesis * White fibers: low myoglobin * Converted to fast-oxidative fibers in individuals receiving regular exercise
Fast-Glycolytic Fibers
61
* Not connected to bones * Forms tubes that squeeze like body of earthworm * Myofilaments not organized into myofibrils * Fibers in a muscle work as a single unit, not several motor units * Contracts slowly but shortens more than striated muscle * Cross-bridges between myosin and actin hold longer, allowing high level of sustained force with less ATP
Smooth Muscle
62
* No sustained contractions * Continuous alternating rhythm independent of nerve stimuli * Heartbeats initiated by specialized muscle cells called the pacemaker * Heart rate can be regulated by neurons in brain
Cardiac Muscle
