Study Notes

Fascia

  • Formed of loose areolar & fatty tissue deep to skin
  • Character:
    • Thick in palm of the hand & sole of the foot
    • Thinnest over penis & external ear
    • May be replaced by muscles like platysma in neck & dartos in scrotum
    • May contain glands like mammary gland
  • Function:
    • Fat acts as a poor heat conductor, maintaining body temperature
    • Fills up body hollows, giving a rounded contour
    • Facilitates skin movement over deep structures
    • Contains blood vessels & nerves of the skin

Deep Fascia

  • Formed of membranous layer of connective tissue
  • Types:
    • Investing fascia: Encloses muscle groups, gives origin to muscles.
    • Inter-muscular septa: Lies between muscles, gives origin to muscles, prevents pus spread
    • Retinacula: Transverse thickenings at wrist & ankle for holding long tendons in place.
    • Aponeurosis: Thick part of deep fascia in palm & sole, protecting underlying structures, providing sheet-like structure
    • Sheath: Surrounds neuro-vascular bundles

Muscular System

Skeletal Muscles

  • Site: Attached to skeleton
  • Contraction: Voluntary
  • Nerve supply: Somatic
  • Nuclei: Peripheral & multi-nucleated
  • Striation: Present
  • Shape of cells: Tubular

Cardiac Muscles

  • Site: Myocardium
  • Contraction: Involuntary
  • Nerve supply: Autonomic
  • Nuclei: Central & single-nucleated
  • Striation: Present
  • Shape of cells: Branching

Smooth Muscles

  • Site: Viscera & blood vessels
  • Contraction: Involuntary
  • Nerve supply: Autonomic
  • Nuclei: Central & single-nucleated
  • Striation: Absent
  • Shape of cells: Spindle

Character of Skeletal Muscles

  • Origin: More fixed attachment
  • Belly: Fleshy part of the muscle
  • Insertion: More mobile attachment
  • Tendon: Cord-like structure at the insertion of skeletal muscles
  • Aponeurosis: Sheet-like structure at the insertion of skeletal muscles

Classification of Skeletal Muscles

  • A. According to arrangement of fibers:
    • Parallel fibers (e.g., abdominal muscles)
    • Convergent fibers (e.g., pectoralis)
    • Oblique pinnate fibers (e.g., digital extensor)
    • Bipennate fibers (e.g., rectus femoris)
    • Multipennate fibers (e.g., deltoideus)
  • B. According to number of joints:
    • Uni-articular (e.g., brachialis)
    • Bi-articular (e.g., sartorius)
    • Multi-articular (e.g., long flexors of digits)

According to action of Muscles

  • 1. Prime movers (agonist): Initiates movement (e.g., brachialis for elbow flexion)
  • 2. Antagonist: Opposes prime movers (e.g., triceps opposes brachialis)
  • 3. Fixators (stabilizers): Stabilizes a joint (e.g., rotator cuff muscles around shoulder)
  • 4. Synergists: Aids the prime mover by preventing unwanted movement in a proximal joint while the distal joint acts (e.g., extensors of wrist contract during finger flexion to prevent wrist flexion).
