Muscular System
Contractility: ability of the muscle to shorten.
Extensibility: ability of muscle to lengthen. Elasticity: ability of muscle to return to
normal size. Atrophy: is the wasting of muscle tissue Hypertrophy: is the increase in size of
muscle tissue. Controlled by nerve stimuli. Fed by capillaries.

Muscular System
Skeletal Muscles (striated or voluntary muscles)
are those which attach to bones and have the main function of contracting to facilitate movement of our skeletons.
Different types muscle tissueDifferent types muscle tissue
Muscular System
Smooth muscle (Unstriated) Involuntary muscle due to our inability to control its movements.
Found in the walls of hollow organs such as the stomach, esophagus, bronchi and in the walls of blood vessels.

Cardiac muscle only in the walls of the heart.

Epimysium:This is the connective tissue wrap just under the deep fascia that surrounds the entire muscle
Perimysium:This connective tissue surrounds each individual fascicle (bundle of muscle fibers).
Endomysium:This is the connective tissue
wrapped around each individual muscle cell (fiber).
Myofibrils: threadlike fibrils that make up the contractile part of a striated muscle fiber.

Muscular System
Muscle fibers are made up of a group of myofibrils.
Myofibrils contain myofilaments.
The myofibrils have distinct, repeating microanatomical units, termed sarcomeres, which represent the basic contractile units of the muscle fiber/cell (myocyte).
Myofilaments (actin & myosin) are responsible for muscle movement.

Myofilaments: (Thick and Thin) Myosin: thick filaments Actin: thin filaments A unit of thick and thin filaments is
known as a Sarcomere. These structures hold the key to
muscle contraction. The staggered thin and thick filaments has the effect as one might pull a rope towards oneself hand over hand.

Muscular SystemOrigin and insertion of musclesOrigin and insertion of muscles
Origin: the point where the tendon attaches to the bone which does not move during muscle action.
Insertion: the point where the tendon attaches to the bone which moves during an action.
e.g. Action of biceps muscle: Scapula is origin (Proximal point) and radius is the insertion. (distal point)
