Skeletal Muscle Mechanics Muscle consists of groups of muscle fibers bundled together and attached to bones Connective tissue covering muscle divides muscle internally into bundles Connective tissue extends beyond ends of muscle to form tendons – Tendons attach muscle to bone

Muscle Contractions Contractions of whole muscle can be of varying strength Twitch – Brief, weak contraction – Produced from single action potential – Too short and too weak to be useful – Normally does not take place in body

Muscle Twitch

Muscle Contractions Two primary factors which can be adjusted to accomplish gradation of whole-muscle tension – Number of muscle fibers contracting within a muscle – Tension developed by each contracting fiber

Motor Unit Recruitment Motor unit – One motor neuron and the muscle fibers it innervates Number of muscle fibers varies among different motor units Number of muscle fibers per motor unit and number of motor units per muscle vary widely – Muscles that produce precise, delicate movements contain fewer fibers per motor unit e.g. external muscles of eye – Muscles performing powerful, coarsely controlled movement have larger number of fibers per motor unit e.g. muscles of thigh

Motor Unit Recruitment

Motor Units in Skeletal Muscle Asynchronous recruitment of motor units helps delay or prevent fatigue

Muscle Tension Factors influencing extent to which tension can be developed – Frequency of stimulation – Length of fiber at onset of contraction – Extent of fatigue – Thickness of fiber

Twitch Summation and Tetanus Twitch summation – Results from sustained elevation of cytosolic calcium Tetanus – Occurs if muscle fiber is stimulated so rapidly that it does not have a chance to relax between stimuli – Contraction is usually three to four times stronger than a single twitch

Summation and Tetanus

Optimal Length (l 0 ) Length of muscle fiber before the onset of contraction at which maximum tension can be developed in subsequent contraction. At this length there is maximum overlap between thin and thick filament – Maximum number of cross bridges can interact ( binds) to actin molecules

Optimal Length (l 0 )

Muscle Tension Tension is produced internally within sarcomeres Tension must be transmitted to bone by means of connective tissue and tendons before bone can be moved (series-elastic component) Muscle typically attached to at least 2 different bones across a joint – Origin End of muscle attached to more stationary part of skeleton – Insertion End of muscle attached to skeletal part that moves

Types of Contraction Two primary types – Isotonic Muscle tension remains constant as muscle changes length Two types – Concentric contractions » Muscle shortens – Eccentric contractions » Muscle lengthens – Isometric Muscle is prevented from shortening Tension develops at constant muscle length

Lever Systems Bones, muscles, and joints interact to form lever systems

Lever Systems Bones function as levers Joints function as fulcrums Skeletal muscles provide force to move bones
