The Muscular System: Muscle Metabolism 1. List the three roles of ATP in muscle contraction: 1. ________________________________ 2. ________________________________ 3. _________________________________ 2. The potential energy in ATP is released when the terminal high-energy bond is broken by a process called ___________________________. Write the end products of this process: ATP (+ H2O) → _________________ 3. Rebuilding ADP into ATP with a new source of energy is carried out by a process called

Cover Page. Mariah Williams Period 6 Spinal Muscular Atrophy. By: Mariah Williams Spinal muscular atrophy [SMA] is a disorder in which‚ you have a loss of motor neurons. Your muscle symmetry is often off. In addition‚ there is muscle weakness in your spinal cord. This occurs in a hard time sitting up and holding your head up on your own. It is just like when you are a newborn and you need a pillow to sit on the couch. A few major causes of SMA are loss of motor neuron cells or nerve cell

ANATOMY ASSIGMENT- THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM Q9.Explain how the muscle produces movement and different types of contraction.(M3) Sliding filament theory. Each muscle fibre is made up of smaller fibres called myofibrils. These contain even smaller structures called actin which is a thin‚ contractile protein filament‚ containing ’active’ or ’binding’ sites and myosin filaments which are a thick‚ contractile protein filament‚ with Myosin Heads. These filaments slide in and out between each other to form

Living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Vivek is a successful college graduate working from home for charities. He writes blogs‚ vlogs‚ gives disability advice and peer support. From this‚ you would think that Vivek is an average guy. Little would you know that Vivek has Duchenne muscular dystrophy‚ a disorder of the muscles. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a rapid deterioration of muscular tissue. This can result in difficulty walking‚ enlarged calves‚ lack of motor skills development and fatigue

the muscles. The stronger the lungs the better his cardiovascular performance will be in his game. Also smooth muscle is key for digestion‚ Wilkinson needs to be physically big and have an edge on his opponents. His smooth muscle in his digestive system is key for the absorption of protein which is a key nutrient for muscle growth. This clearly shows that smooth muscle helps Wilkinson gain muscle and enables him to have a physical edge in his game of rugby. Skeletal muscles help Wilkinson’s game

and negative effects on the skeletal and muscular systems of a young person performing contact‚ high impact and repetitive sports. There can be both positive and negative outcomes to a young performer. Positive effects can be the strengthening of the body. Negative effects can be that serious injuries can occur to the undeveloped young performer’s body and not be able to do that sport after. The skeletal system and the muscular system are both systems in the body that can benefit more from regular

Explain the relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems. The relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems is that we are made up of bones all throughout our body and we need this to stand and hold our body together‚ similar to the skeletal system the muscular system is made up of soft tissue and is lined all over our body. We could not stand without the system as well. 2. Why is the circulatory system important? This system is important because it is used to circulate blood

Muscular System Animations 1. How do nerve impulses cause muscle contraction? Skeletal muscle is under voluntary control. Nerve impulses that originate in the central nervous system cause muscles to contract. Both neurons and muscle tissue conduct electrical current by moving ions across cellular membranes. A motor neuron ends in a synapse with a muscle fiber. The neuron releases acetylcholine and transfers the action potential to the muscle tissue. The signal will travel through the tissue
