General Muscle Functions
![Page 3: The Muscular System. General Muscle Functions the body and its parts to move or to move thingsMuscular tissue enables the body and its parts to move](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032703/56649d1b5503460f949f088b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Muscular tissue enables the body and its parts to move or to move things
• Movement caused by the ability of muscle fibers to contract
• Muscle fibers are elastic – have memory
• Muscle cells shorten by converting chemical energy into mechanical energy, which causes movement
• Poor ability to repair itself

Types• Three Types of
Muscle Tissue• Classified according
to– Voluntary or
Involuntary– Striated or non-
striated– Appearance
• Continuous Cylinders• Branching• Smooth Sheets
• Skeletal• Cardiac• Smooth

A. Skeletal • Basic Movement• Threadlike /
Cylindrical• Striated
– Microscopic Stripes
• Voluntary – You Control Contractions
– Speed– Rate– Intensity
• 40% to 50% of body weight – Red Meat

B. Cardiac • Branching cylinders that reconnect
• Controls Heart Rate – Heart Pumping / Squeezing
• Involuntary– Controlled by Brain /
Hormones• Characterized by unique
dark bands called intercalated disks
– Interconnected nature of cardiac muscle cells allows heart to contract efficiently as a unit

C. Smooth or Visceral
• Smooth Sheet-like / Cells taper
• Found in walls of hollow organs (Visceral)
– Digestive Tract– Blood Vessels– Bladder
• Lacks cross stripes or striations when seen under a microscope
– Appears Smooth– Involuntary
• Moves substances through body
– Controlled by brain / hormones / nerves
