Summary

This document provides an overview of the muscular system, including its functions, types of muscles (skeletal, smooth, and cardiac), and how muscles are attached to the skeleton. It also details the effects of physical activity and aging on muscles. The document includes detailed information about muscle structure and function.

MUSCULAR SYSTEM MLLIPA FUNCTIONS OF THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM TYPES OF MUSCLES Based on how they work Skeletal/Striped or Voluntary Muscles Smooth or Involuntary Muscles Cardiac muscles SKELETAL MUSCLES 40-50% of an adult male body wt 30-40% of a female adulty body wt striated: alternating dark & light bands voluntary fibers are long & cylindrical with many nuclei attached to skeleton by _____________ SMOOTH MUSCLE NOT STRIATED INVOLUNTARY FOUND IN THE CIRCULATORY, DIGESTIVE, RESPIRATORY & UROGENITAL SYSTEM FIBERS ARE THIN & SPINDLE SHAPED SINGLE NUCLEI CONTRACTS SLOWLY CARDIAC MUSCLE STRIATED INVOLUNTARY FOUND ONLY IN THE HEART CELLS ARE BRANCHED & APPEAR FUSED WITH ONE ANOTHER TYPES OF CONTRACTION SKELETAL MUSCLE ACTIONS  origin – immovable end  insertion – movable end  prime mover (agonist) – primarily responsible for movement  synergists – muscle that aids a prime mover in a movement and helps prevent rotation  antagonist – resist prime mover’s action and cause movement in the opposite direction Fixator – stabilizes the origin of a prime mover 9-30 How are muscles attach to skeleton? EFFECTS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY TO MUSCLE muscle fiber becomes larger and stronger. muscular atrophy- Muscle hypertrophy-muscle increases in size regular exercise increases muscle size, strength and endurance. exercise result in stronger, more flexible, muscles with greater resistance to fatigue. aerobic exercise makes the over all body:  metabolism more efficient  improved digestion and elimination  enhanced neuromuscular coordination  makes the skeletal system stronger  the heart enlarges  fat deposits are cleared  lung becomes more efficient response to exercise, a muscle increases in size, or hypertrophies and increases in strength and endurance. Conversely, a muscle that is not used decreases in size, or atrophies. Because muscle fiber numbers do not change appreciably during most of a person’s life, atrophy and hypertrophy result from changes in the size of individual muscle fibers. New nuclei are added to muscle fibers because small satellite cells near skeletal muscle fibers increase in number in response to exercise and then fuse with the skeletal muscle fibers. Other elements, such as blood vessels, connective tissue, and mitochondria, also increase in number. Atrophy due to lack of exercise results from a decrease in all these elements without a decrease in muscle fiber number. However, severe atrophy, as occurs in elderly people who cannot readily move their limbs, does EFFECTS OF AGING IN MUSCLE weak muscles, smaller and dehydrated. fibrous tissue appears; muscles infiltrated with fat. muscle reflex slows. nocturnal cramps- deficiency of sodium, improper blood flow. elderly tend to move about than they should and this would result to the following: 1) cramps, loss of muscle tone, and osteoporosis 2) blood clotting 3) diarrhea, constipation, and general indigestion (decrease peristalsis). 4) accumulation of secretion within the lungs and the rest of the respiratory tract. 5) kidney stones; infections- urinary tract, bedsores there are more than 600 muscles in the body. size: 1) vastus (huge); vastus lateralis 2) maximus (large); gluteus maximus 3) longus (long); palmaris longus 4) minismus (small); gluteus minismus 5) brevis (short); peroneus brevis shape: 1) deltoid (triangular); deltoid muscle 2) rhomboid (like a rhombus with equal and parallel sides); rhomboideus major 3) latissimus (wide); latissimus dorsi 4) teres (round); teres major 5) trapezius (like a trapezoid, a four-sided figure with two sides parallel).
