    Study Notes

    Skeletal Muscle

    • Enables movement of the body by contraction and relaxation

    Muscle Characteristics

    • Smooth muscle: contraction speed is slow (non-striated, involuntary control)
    • Skeletal muscle: under voluntary control, striated, central nucleus

    Muscle Functions

    • Main function of the muscular system: movement, support, and protection of the body
    • Main function of smooth muscle: contraction and relaxation of hollow organs and blood vessels

    Muscle Anatomy

    • Deep fascia: structure that separates muscles from skin, contains adipose tissues
    • Skeletal muscle: accounts for approximately 40% of total body weight

    Muscle Response

    • Skeletal muscle: has the ability to respond to stimuli by producing electrical signals
