SarcolemmaThe
cell membrane of a
muscle cell.
Sarcoplasm The cytoplasm within the
muscle cell.
Sarcoplasmic reticulum The
membranous network of channels and
tubules within the muscle fiber,
corresponding to the endoplasmic
reticulum of other cells.
Myotome a group of muscles that a
single spinal nerve innervates
Muscle organization
According to location
Somatic
Visceral
cardiac)
Operate visceral skeleton
Digestion and respiratory movements
Muscle organization
According to nervous system control
Voluntary muscles
Under immediate conscious control
E.g. the limbs you control your arms to
lift things up and your legs to walk
Involuntary
muscles
Muscle organization
According to general microscopic
appearance
Skeletal muscles
Attaches to bone; voluntary
Has striations
Cardiac
muscles
Heart; involuntary
Has striations and intercalated disks
Smooth
muscles
Involuntary; no striations
Ex. Intestine & stomach
Myofilaments - filaments
that compose the sarcomere;
actin and myosin
Tendons
Connective
tissue forming
cordlike
attachment to
bones
Flat, tough sheets
of connective
tissue are
aponeuroses
If wrapping body
parts together,
they are fascia
Tendons
Distribute
forces for
precise movement
Transmission of forces
from one point to
another
Tendons
require little
maintenance and
consume little energy
compared to muscles
Muscle Contraction
At
At
Muscle Contraction
Sliding
mechanism
filaments slip
and slide past one
another to shorten
the muscle
Muscles
do not
lengthen to push
apart their sites of
attachment
Muscle Fibers
Color
Muscles made of red fibers are rich in
myoglobin. Resistant to fatigue
White
Muscle Fibers
Ability to sustain force
Tonic
Twitch
fast contraction
Somatic muscles
(a)
Bone-Muscle Lever
Systems
If inserted near
(proximal) point of
rotation, favors speed
If
inserted distal to
point of rotation,
favors strength
(b)
Proximal insertion
also favors greater
excursion of the distal
end of the part
rotated

Origin
point
of attachment
Insertion
movable point
of attachment
E.g. the
latissimus dorsi
origin is the
torso, insertion is
the arm
Muscle Action
Synergists
Agonists
Produce opposing
motions
Biceps brachii and
triceps brachii

Embryonic Origin
Mesenchyme
smooth muscles in
blood vessels, viscera
Hypomere
smooth
muscle layers of the
alimentary tract
Embryonic Origin
Paraxial
mesoderm
Trunk: forms
somites
Head: mesoderm
clusters called
somitomeres that
form head and
pharyngeal
muscles
Embryonic Origin
Appendicular
Musculature
Embryonic Origin
Axial Musculature
Epaxial
Dorsal to horizontal
septum (a longitudinal
sheet of connective
tissue that divide
myotomes into dorsal
and ventral regions)
Hypaxial
Ventral to horizontal
septum
Embryonic Origin
Cranial Musculature from the paraxial
mesoderm
Hypobranchial trunk myotomes; supplied
by spinal nerves. Form between gill arches,
as well as part of the tongue

Axial Musculature
Fishes
Embryonic and
segmental
myotomes
As an adult,
segmented
myotomes are
termed
myomeres,
separated by
myosepta
Axial Musculature
Fishes
Supplies the major propulsive
forces for locomotion, constituting
the bulk of the body musculature
The vertebral column or notochord
act as compression girder to keep
fish from telescoping
The body increasingly bends
toward the tail
Acceleration of the tail is greater
than that of the sections near the
head; thus, greater force in tail
Axial Musculature
Amphibians
Epaxials above
transverse process
Hypaxials along body
wall proper
In salamanders, axial
musculature is
prominent; in frogs, the
appendicular
musculature of hindlimb
is large and axial
reduced in prominence
Salamander axial
musculature. Note that
the dorsalis trunci is not
differentiated
Epaxials
Axial Musculature
Reptiles
Lost or indistinct
septum
Limbs more
important in
propulsion
Transversospinalis
Longissimus
iliocostalis
Axial Musculature
Hypaxial
Dorso-medial beneath
vertebral column, aids in
moving neck
Medial along the inside
of rib cage
Lateral outside rib
cage
Ventral along the belly;
to the pelvis
> Hypaxials associated
more with breathing; also
aids in moving trunk
In
turtles, hypaxial
muscles are reduced
or lost. Why?
In
snakes, axial
musculature is
prominently
developed

The appendicular muscles take on more
responsibility for locomotion and account for
more muscle bulk
