The Muscular System Unit VI

Interesting Facts Muscle cells cannot partially contract. They act on the ‘all or none’ principle. They either contract 100% or do not contract at all. When you are cold, your muscles produce rapid contractions to generate body heat (shivering).

A cramp is a painful muscle contraction. Tetanus is a very severe type of contraction. It is a persistent contraction that can be caused by a bacterial infection. Sometimes you get a ‘tetanus shot’ to prevent this. Tetanus can cause lockjaw.

A spasm is rapid involuntary contraction of a muscle A spasm is rapid involuntary contraction of a muscle. You may have had one in your eye before - tick. You cannot turn fat into muscle by exercising. You cannot ‘spot reduce’ i.e. you cannot get rid of your spare tire by doing sit-ups.

Movement You are always moving. Even when you are sleeping, your muscles are working. Movement only stops when life stops. Movement within cells is caused by chemical reactions. All other body movements are caused by muscles.

You have more than 600 muscles. Muscles make up 40% of your body mass. Muscles work by contracting. When a muscle contracts it shortens. Without your muscles, your bones could not move. When a muscle contracts it pulls on a bone, producing movement. Muscles can only pull bone; they cannot push bones.

Types of Muscles Not all our muscles are used for locomotion. Some allow us to wink, swallow etc. There are three main types of muscles. At the cellular level they all have the same function – to contract. When we move beyond the cellular level we see differences in their functions:

Type 1: Skeletal Muscle Muscles that move your arms and legs These are the ones that you control – they move when you want them to They are attached to bone Often called voluntary muscles Under a microscope they look striped or striated so they are called striated muscles

Type 2: Smooth Muscle Often called involuntary muscles because you cannot control them These muscles form the wall of most of the digestive tract; they are also found in blood vessels and other internal organs Under a microscope they look smooth

Type 3: Cardiac Muscle This is the heart muscle Under a microscope, cardiac muscle appears striated like voluntary muscles BUT cardiac muscle is involuntary – you have no control over your cardiac muscle

Muscle Attachment For one bone to move toward another bone, a muscle is needed. This muscle will have 2 points of attachment Origin: The place at which a muscle is attached to the stationary (not moving) bone Insertion: The place at which a muscle is attached to the movable bone

Muscles are attached to bones by tendons. Tendons are tough, inelastic bands of connective tissue – they are very strong A tendon is the thickness of a pencil and can support a load of several thousand kilos

As the tendons are small, they can pass in groups over a joint or attach to very small areas for the muscle itself to find room for attachment Although they are very tough, they are subject to wear and tear as they rub across bone surface

Tendons may become inflamed (tendonitis) when athletes work out in cold weather without adequate warm clothing, or without doing warm ups

Antagonistic Muscle Pairs Many muscles act in pairs This is necessary since a muscle can only pull by contracting When a bone moves, movement in the opposite direct can occur only if there is another muscle that can pull the bone in that direction These muscles are called antagonistic pairs

Exercise Type 1: Isotonic Exercise There are two types of exercise: Results in movement Ex) running, lifting weights etc

Type 2: Isometric Exercise Muscles are pitted against each other This is exercise that does NOT result in movement Ex) Pushing a wall; hooking fingers together and trying to pull hands apart Such exercises have been shown to increase strength and muscle size rapidly

Movement in Joints Abduction: movement away from the side of the trunk or midline of the body Ex) raising arms to the side; swinging leg to the side Adduction: movement toward the trunk or midline (opposite of abduction)

Flexion: bending or bringing bones together Ex) bending elbow or knee Extension: straightening Ex) straightening elbow or knee

Dorsal flexion: moving the foot towards the tibia (shin) Plantar flexion: moving the foot away from the tibia. Ex) standing on your toes

Pronation: twisting the forearm by turning palm face down (when hand is held out front) Supination: twisting the forearm by turning palm face up (when hand it held out front)

Horizontal adduction: movement of humerus from side-horizontal to front-horizontal Ex) pushing a barbell during a bench press Horizontal abduction: movement of humerus from front-horizontal to side-horizontal Ex) rowing a boat

Elevation: movement upward Ex) shrugging the shoulders Depression: movement downward
