All Rights Reserved Mechanism of Muscle Contraction: The Sliding Filament Theory What causes filaments to slide? – Calcium ions (Ca2+) bind regulatory proteins on thin filaments and expose myosin-binding sites, allowing the myosin heads on the thick filaments to attach – Each cross bridge pivots, causing the thin filaments to slide toward the center of the sarcomere – Contraction occurs, and the cell shortens – During a contraction, a cross bridge attaches and detaches several times – ATP provides the energy for the sliding process, which continues as long as calcium ions are present Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (1 of 7) Graded responses – Muscle fiber contraction is “_________,” meaning it will contract to its fullest when stimulated adequately – Within a whole skeletal muscle, not all fibers may be stimulated during the same interval – Different ___________ of muscle fiber contractions may give differing _________ – Graded responses—different degrees of skeletal muscle ________ Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (2 of 7) Graded responses can be produced in two ways – By changing the __________ of muscle stimulation – By changing the _______ of muscle cells being stimulated at one time Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (3 of 7) Muscle response to increasingly rapid stimulation – Muscle ________ ▪ Single, brief, _______ contraction ▪ Not a _______ muscle function Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (4 of 7) Muscle response to increasingly _______ stimulation – In most types of muscle activity, nerve impulses are delivered at a _______ rate – As a result, contractions are “summed” (_________) together, and one contraction is immediately followed by another Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (5 of 7) Muscle response to increasingly rapid stimulation – When stimulations become more ______, muscle contractions get _______ and smoother – The muscle now exhibits unfused (________) tetanus Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (6 of 7) Muscle response to increasingly rapid stimulation – Fused (complete) tetanus is achieved when the muscle is stimulated so rapidly that no evidence of relaxation is seen – Contractions are smooth and sustained Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Contraction of a Skeletal Muscle as a Whole (7 of 7) Muscle response to stronger stimuli – Muscle force depends upon the number of fibers stimulated – Contraction of more fibers results in greater muscle tension – When all motor units are active and stimulated, the muscle contraction is as strong as it can get Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Providing Energy for Muscle Contraction (1 of 5) ATP – Only energy source that can be used to directly power muscle contraction – Stored in muscle fibers in small amounts that are quickly used up – After this initial time, other pathways must be utilized to produce ATP Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Anaerobic glycolysis and lactic acid formation Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Providing Energy for Muscle Contraction (3 of 5) Direct phosphorylation of ADP by creatine phosphate (CP)—fastest – Muscle cells store CP, a high-energy molecule – After ATP is depleted, ADP remains – CP transfers a phosphate group to ADP to regenerate ATP – CP supplies are exhausted in less than 15 seconds – 1 ATP is produced per CP molecule Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Providing Energy for Muscle Contraction (4 of 5) Aerobic respiration – Supplies ATP at rest and during light/moderate exercise – A series of metabolic pathways, called oxidative phosphorylation, use oxygen and occur in the mitochondria – Glucose is broken down to carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy (about 32 ATP) – This is a slower reaction that requires continuous delivery of oxygen and nutrients Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Providing Energy for Muscle Contraction (5 of 5) Anaerobic glycolysis and lactic acid formation – Reaction that breaks down glucose without oxygen – Glucose is broken down to pyruvic acid to produce about 2 ATP – Pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid, which causes muscle soreness – This reaction is not as efficient, but it is fast – Huge amounts of glucose are needed Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Muscle Fatigue and Oxygen Deficit If muscle activity is strenuous and prolonged, muscle fatigue occurs Suspected factors that contribute to muscle fatigue include: – Ion imbalances (Ca2+, K+) – Oxygen deficit and lactic acid accumulation – Decrease in energy (ATP) supply After exercise, the oxygen deficit is repaid by rapid, deep breathing Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Types of Muscle Contractions Isotonic contractions – Myofilaments are able to slide past each other during contractions – The muscle shortens, and movement occurs – Example: bending the knee; lifting weights, smiling Isometric contractions – Muscle filaments are trying to slide, but the muscle is pitted against an immovable object – Tension increases, but muscles do not shorten – Example: pushing your palms together in front of you Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Muscle Tone Muscle tone – State of continuous partial contractions – Result of different motor units being stimulated in a systematic way – Muscle remains firm, healthy, and constantly ready for action Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Effect of Exercise on Muscles Exercise increases muscle size, strength, and endurance – Aerobic (endurance) exercise (biking, jogging) results in stronger, more flexible muscles with greater resistance to fatigue ▪ Makes body metabolism more efficient ▪ Improves digestion, coordination – Resistance (isometric) exercise (weight lifting) increases muscle size and strength ▪ Individual muscle fibers enlarge Copyright © 2018, 2015, 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
