A
  • has 206 bones, made up of osseous tissue

A

Spaces between the bone tissue becomes enlarged, weakening the bone. This is due to a lack of calcium, aging

46

MUSCLE Facts

A
  • There are more than 650 muscles in the human body.
  • More than 400 of them are skeletal muscles.
  • The gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the body and the stapedius (in ear) is the smallest.
  • Muscles account for 40% of a man’s total weight.
  • Muscles consists mainly of protein.
  • Muscles move the body by contracting (shortening).
  • A muscle can contract up to 30% of its resting length.
  • Muscles get their energy from glycogen which comes from the carbohydrates we eat. In order to release it’s energy, glucose needs oxygen.
  • If there is not enough oxygen getting to the muscle lactic acid builds up which causes pain and cramps. These contain two main kinds of protein. These are actin and myosin. These proteins give the muscle a striated appearance.
    During contraction these proteins overlap, the muscle becomes shorter and thicker. Myosin is located within myofibril. The actin slide over the myosin during contraction.
    Contractions starts with an impulse from motor nerve. Motor nerves are connected at motor end plate.
  • Exercise does not increase the number of muscle cells, but it does increase the size of the actual fibre.
  • Pairs of muscles that oppose each other’s motion are called antagonist. The biceps and triceps are an example. When weight training it’s important to work both.
  • Tendons connect muscle to bone.
  • The body or belly of a skeletal muscle contains many cells or fibres.
  • A muscle contains many myofibrils.
  • The point were a nerve and muscle interact is the neuromuscular junction.
  • Muscles of the arms are smaller than muscles of the legs because they do not have to support the weight of the body. However, the muscles of arms and legs are arranged in similar ways.
