sarcoplasmic reticulum
muslce to bone attachments
indirect
direct
indirect attachment
attach via fibrous tendons
direct attachment
muscle fibers extend nearly to bone surface and muscle fibers connect directly to periosteum
muscle groups
prime movers
synergist
antagonist
fixator
prime movers
muscle that produces the most force
synergists
muscles that assist prime mover
antagonist
muscle that opposes prime mover
fixator
muscle that holds bone still
intrinsic muscles
boht origin and insertion are within specified region
head
hand
extrinsic muscles
origin is outside of the region
insertion is in the region of movement
stiations of muscle
due to the arrangement of bands within the sarcomere
motor neuron relationship
connection is the neuromuscular junction
nerve impulse causes muscle contraction
by release of acetylcholine
neuromuscular junction
synaptic knob nestles in depression of the sarcolemma
the synaptic cleft separates the to from actual contact
motor unit
single nerve fiber and all muscle fibers innervated by it
motor unit significance
allows precise control over muscle contractoin to allow just enough contraction to perform the task
