Example of lever action

--Bending and straightening of upper limb at elbow •During bending, forearm bones act as rigid bar •Elbow joint acts as fulcrum •Hand moves against resistance provided by weight/load •*** Third-class lever; arranged in resistance-force-fulcrum sequence

Excitation-Contraction Coupling

-Connection between muscle fiber stimulation and muscle contraction •During muscle relaxation: oCa2+ ions are stored in SR oTroponin-tropomyosin complexes cover binding sites on actin filaments •Upon muscle stimulation: oMuscle impulses cause S R to release Ca2+ ions into the cystol oCa2+ ion binds to troponin to change its shape oEach tropomyosin is held in place by a troponin molecule; change in shape of troponin alters the position of tropomyosin oBinding sites on actin are now exposed oMyosin heads bind to actin, forming cross-bridges

•Distinguish between fast and slow twitch muscle fibers- Fast

-Fast-twitch fatigue-resistant fibers (Type IIa): •Intermediate twitch fibers •Intermediate oxidative capacity •Intermediate amount of myoglobin •White fibers •Resistant to fatigue •Rapid ATPase activity -Fast-twitch glycolytic fibers (Type IIb): •Anaerobic respiration (glycolysis) •White fibers (less myoglobin) •Poorer blood supply than slow-twitch fibers •Fewer mitochondria than slow-twitch •More SR than slow-twitch- amount of calcium to unraviel and allow for more contractions to occur. •Susceptible to fatigue •Fast ATPase activity; contract rapidly

Interaction of Skeletal Muscles

-Most skeletal muscles function in groups, and we see different roles taken: i.Agonist: Muscle that causes an action ii.Prime mover: Agonist primarily responsible for movement (In some cases, the terms "agonist" and "prime mover" are used interchangeably) iii.Synergists: Muscles that assist agonist/prime mover iv.Antagonist: Muscles whose contraction causes movement in the opposite direction of the prime mover Fixator = muscle that holds the scapular firmly in place

body movement

-When bones or body parts move, bones and muscles act as levers -4 basic components of levers: 1.Rigid bar or rod (bones) 2.Fulcrum or pivot on which bar moves (joint) 3.Object moved against resistance (weight/load) Force that supplies

• Compare the contraction mechanisms of skeletal and cardiac muscle cells

muscle contraction

1. The impulse arrives at the synapse and travels through the T. tubules. 2. The muscle impulse reaches the SR and Ca2+ is released. 3. Ca2+ floods the sarcoplasm and binds to troponin molecules leaving active sites. 4. Myosin heads bind to exposed active sites on actin, forming cross-bridges. 5. Thin filaments are pulled over the thick filaments. 6. The muscle fiber shortens and contracts.

• Distinguish between the structures and functions of multiunit smooth muscle and visceral smooth muscle

1.Multi-unit Smooth Muscle: •Cells are less organized •Function as separate units •Fibers function independently -Examples: Iris of eye, walls of blood vessels •Stimulated by neurons, hormones 2. Visceral Smooth Muscle: •Single-unit smooth muscle; cells respond as a unit •Sheets of spindle-shaped muscle fibers •Fibers held together by gap junctions •Exhibit rhythmicity •Conduct peristalsis ( eating and digestion) •Walls of most hollow organs •More common type of smooth muscle

Cross-Bridge Cycling

1.Myosin head attaches to actin binding site, forming cross-bridge 2.Myosin cross-bridge pulls thin filament toward center of sarcomere 3.ADP and phosphate are released from myosin 4.New ATP binds to myosin 5.Linkage between actin and myosin cross-bridge break 6.ATP splits 7.Myosin cross-bridge goes back to original position, ready to bind to another binding site on actin

•List the energy sources necessary for skeletal muscle fiber contraction

1st Choice: ATP Reserves •"Go To" for energy for muscle contraction •Limited: cells store a small amount (2 seconds) 2nd Choice: Creatine Phosphate •Initial source of energy to regenerate ATP from ADP and P •Energy = phosphate bond (like ATP) •ATP + creatine phosphate can only fuel ~10 seconds of intense muscle contraction 3rd Choice: Cellular Respiration •Must be used to fuel longer periods of muscle contraction •Breaks down glucose to produce ATP •Glucose stored as glycogen in muscle cells

•Describe oxygen debt

During rest or moderate exercise, respiratory and CV systems supply enough O2 Oxygen Debt: oMost of O2 in strenuous exercise is used to produce ATP for muscle contraction, not for converting lactic acid to glucose oAt end of strenuous exercise, muscles may be left with O2 debt oThis is amount of oxygen needed by liver cells to convert the accumulated lactic acid to glucose, and to restore muscle ATP and creatine phosphate concentrations

•Distinguish the differences between a twitch and a sustained contraction- twitch

Twitch: •Contractile response of a single muscle fiber to a single impulse •Twitch Time Periods: a.Latent period: Delay between stimulation and start of contraction b.Period of contraction: Fiber pulls at attachments c.Period of relaxation: Pulling force decreases

. Recording of a muscle contraction

a. A twitch is a single, short contraction of a muscle fiber. b. A myogram is a recording of the contraction of an electrically stimulated isolated muscle or muscle fiber. c. The latent period is the time between stimulus and responding contraction. d. The length to which a muscle is stretched before stimulation affects the force it will develop. 1. Normal activities occur at optimal length. 2. Too long or too short decreases force. e. Sustained contractions are more important than twitch contractions in everyday activities.

heat production

a. Muscular contraction generates body heat (shivering in cold or due to fever/change in set point). b. Most of the energy released by cellular respiration is lost as heat.

Recruitment of motor units

a. One motor neuron and the muscle fibers associated with it constitute a motor unit. b. Muscles whose motor units have few muscle fibers produce finer movements. c. Motor units respond in an all-or-none manner. d. At low intensity of stimulation, relatively few motor units contract. e. At increasing intensities of stimulation, other motor units are recruited until the muscle contracts with maximal tension. •A motor neuron plus all of the muscle fibers it controls •A whole muscle consists of many motor units •Coarse movements are produced with large #'s of fibers in a motor unit •Precise movements are produced with < muscle fibers in a motor unit

relaxation

a.Acetylcholinesterase rapidly decomposes acetylcholine remaining in the synaptic cleft, preventing continuous stimulation of a muscle fiber. b. The muscle fiber relaxes when calcium ions are transported back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. c. Cross-bridge linkages break and do not re-form, then the muscle fiber relaxes. -When neural stimulation of muscle fiber stops •Acetylcholinesterase (enzyme) rapidly decomposes ACh remaining in the synapse. •Muscle impulse stops when ACh is decomposed. •Stimulus to sarcolemma and muscle fiber membrane ceases. •Calcium pump moves Ca2+ back into sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). •Troponin-tropomyosin complex again covers binding sites on actin. •Myosin and actin binding are now prevented. •Muscle fiber relaxes until ..........
