2017 Motor Unit Recruitment and Muscle Fatigue Lab Introduction Human skeletal muscles are made up of hundreds of cylindrically-shaped cells called myofibers‚ and they are bound together by connective tissue. These muscles are stimulated to contract by somatic motor nerves‚ or motor neurons‚ that carry signals in the form of nerve impulses from the brain or spinal cord‚ to the skeletal muscles. Although a motor neuron can innervate several fibers‚ each muscle fiber can only be innervated by one

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine the substance that are required in order for muscle to contract. We are experiencing this contraction by having three different solutions which contains their own disparate chemicals inside. Hypothesis: Solution A: 0.25% ATP solutions in distilled water; Base on muscle contraction mechanism which we know the force that generating cycle required is indeed of a lot of energy in the form of ATP‚ but there are additional solutions; KCl‚ MgCl2 which

Introduction Muscle is one of the four main types of tissue‚ and is primarily involved in movement. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal‚ smooth‚ and cardiac. Skeletal muscle was investigated in this lab. Skeletal muscle is composed of two filaments called actin and myosin‚ which run parallel to each other. Actin has a protein that run along it called tropomyosin‚ that prevents actin from binding to it‚ unless calcium is bound to a part of the tropomyosin called troponin. Sets of actin

muscle contraction Introduction For a skeletal muscle fiber to contract‚ a stimulus must be applied to it. The stimulus is delivered by a nerve cell‚ or neuron. A neuron has a threadlike process called and axon that my run 91 cm or more to a muscle. A bundle of such fibers from man different neurons composes a nerve. A neuron that stimulates muscle tissue is called a motor neuron. The motor neuron branches into terminal structures called telodendria that come into close approximation with

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SKELETAL MUSCLE USING FROG GASTROCNEMIUS AIM The purpose of this experiment was to demonstrate the physiological as well as mechanical properties of skeletal muscle using the gastrocnemius muscle of a frog by exploring five different investigations namely the single twitch‚ the graded response‚ the relationship between muscle length and tension‚ muscle tetanus‚ and muscle fatigue. These individual experiments aim to explore the way muscles can contract when an electrical stimulus

Also‚ cells and extracellular matrix was to be identified in them. For this‚ different already prepared slides were chosen and observed under the microscope to then identify the different parts. II. Introduction Apart from the bone and cartilage‚ the rest of the specialized connective tissues are divided

HOW TO GAIN MUSCLES. Introduction. The assignment topic touches on a very important part of the human body a muscle. This is a soft tissue found on most animals and is made of cells that contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another‚ producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. It function to produce force there location on the body or according to the functions and roles they play. They are the cardiac muscles (muscles covering the
