    Background Information Muscles in the human body can be classified into three different types- cardiac‚ smooth and skeletal muscles. The skeletal muscles are the muscles that can be controlled voluntarily‚ in things such walking and picking things up. The skeletal muscles are made up of bundles of muscle fibres (which are also known as myofibrils‚ as can be seen below). Each of the muscle fibres contain many sarcomeres‚ which is the most basic form of striated muscle tissue- they consist of two

    Frog Skeletal Muscle The aim of this experiment is to explore the basic physiological principles of skeletal muscle using the isolated frog (Rana pipiens or Xenopus laevis) gastrocnemius muscle. Students will dissect a double-pithed frog. Then‚ they will connect the muscle to the Force Transducer to measure twitch recruitment‚ effect of stretch‚ muscle summation‚ muscle tetanus‚ and muscle fatigue. Written by staff of ADInstruments.
