Essential Question • What are the structures of the muscular system?
The Muscular System • Comprises nearly half our weight. • Over 650 muscles. • Each muscle is made up of hundreds or thousands of muscle fibers.
Muscle Fibers • Bundles of threadlike structures called myofibrils • Composed of: • Myosin • Actin • Form overlapping pattern called sarcomere muscle muscle fiber sarcolemma sarcomere functional unit of muscle movement
Structures of the muscular system Connective tissue • Tendons • Fascia Muscles • Skeletal • Smooth • Cardiac • Sphincter
Skeletal muscles • Attached to bone • Striated (striped) appearance • Voluntary • Multinucleated muscle cell bundles
Smooth muscles • Also known as visceral muscles • Involuntary • Located in walls of digestive system, uterus & blood vessels
Cardiac muscle • Found only in the heart • Striated, branched • Involuntary • Cells are fused- when one contracts, they all contract, creating a synchronized heartbeat.
Sphincter muscles • Also called dilator muscles • Special, circular muscles • Located in the • digestive system • urinary system
Sphincter muscles are special circular muscles in the openings of our esophagus and stomach and small intestine, anus, urethra and mouth.
Structures of the muscular system There are 2 types of connective tissue that belong to the muscular system: • Tendons • Fascia
Tendons dense bands that connect skeletal muscle to the bone
Fascia Fibrous sheets of connective tissue that wrap around muscle bundles
How do skeletal muscles get their names? • Location • Size • Direction • Number of origins • However, • not all muscles are named by the above methods!
