PPT-Characteristics of Skeletal Muscle Contraction

Dr Tamara Alqudah Aim of the experiment Learn some of the characteristics of skeletal muscle contraction Simple muscle twitch Summation Tetanization Fatigue Treppe phenomenon Muscle twitch. Learning Objective:. To . be able to explain the sliding filament theory using appropriate terminology.. Structure of a Muscle. Skeletal muscle is made up of bundles of muscle . fibres. .. Fibres. are bound together by connective tissue through which run blood vessels and nerves.. Skeletal Muscle. Human body contains over 400 skeletal muscles. 40-50% of total body weight. Functions of skeletal muscle. Force production for locomotion and breathing. Force production for postural support. Foldable. You will make a Foldable to illustrate the steps in skeletal muscle contraction (use figure 10-1 on pg. 299). You may use any type of foldable (but only 1 colored sheet of paper). You may combine steps so you have less than the 10 steps on pg. 299. 11.2. Learning Objectives. Explain the sliding filament mechanism. State what evidence supports the sliding filament mechanism. Explain where the energy comes from for muscle contraction. Success Criteria. By BB. “Contraction in Action” Muscle Contraction Skits. Anatomy & Physiology/Tissues, Bones and Muscles. Purpose: . To create a live model or skit of approximately 3 minutes to demonstrate muscle anatomy and the physiology of muscle contraction.. . & . Reflexes, . Proprioception. and Movement. PSK 4U Unit 4, Day 4. Excitation. -. Contraction . Coupling. Muscles work by converting electrical and chemical energy into mechanical energy!. The process of muscle contraction as a whole is often referred to as “excitation-contraction coupling”. As it contracts it . -causes movement. -maintains posture. -stabilizes joints. -and generates heat. . Muscle Types. Skeletal muscle (voluntary). muscle attached to the skeleton. cells are long, striated, and multinucleate. Histology Lecture . Series. Larry . Johnson, Professor. Veterinary Integrative Biosciences. Texas A&M University. College Station, . TX 77843. Muscle. – Introduction. Contractivity. is one of the . Muscle Contraction and the Sliding Filament Theory Learning Objective: To be able to explain the sliding filament theory using key terminology. Structure of a Muscle Skeletal muscle is made up of bundles of muscle Contractile. Made of contractile proteins. Cells are called fibers. Skeletal Muscle. 40% of body weight. Under voluntary control; attached to skeleton. Striated, or banded, appear. ance. Cells have multiple nuclei. Same principles apply to contraction of a single fiber and a whole muscle. Contraction produces tension, the force exerted on the load or object to be moved. Review Principles of Muscle Mechanics. Contraction does not always shorten a muscle:. matt.velkey@duke.edu. 452A Davison, Duke South. Muscle Tissue. I. Striated Muscle - regularly arranged contractile units. A. Skeletal Muscle - long, cylindrical multinucleated cells with peripherally placed nuclei. Contraction is typically quick and vigorous and under voluntary control. Used for locomotion, mastication, and phonation.. Degeneration Figure Legend:Figure 1Skeletal muscleDegeneration in a male Harlan SpragueDawley rat from a subchronic study.
