    Laboratory – Muscle Physiology A. MUSCLE TONUS Observations‚ Report and Conclusion: A. Define muscle tonus and give its importance * Muscle tonus refers to a state of slight muscular contraction maintained by synchronous impulses of low frequency‚ discharged by the spinal motor neurons. * Reflex in nature. * Muscle tonus is a small amount of tension in the muscle due to weak‚ involuntary contractions of its motor units. Muscle tonus is important in a sense that it governs the

    • 4 Pages

    Q1 Muscle contraction can be understood as the consequence of a process of transmission of action potentials from one neuron to another. A chemical called acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter released from the presynaptic neuron. As the postsynaptic cells on the muscle cell membrane receive the acetylcholine‚ the channels for the cations sodium and potassium are opened. These cations produce a net depolarization of the cell membrane and this electrical signal travels along the muscle fibers. Through

    The Skeletal System provides us with many important functions. It provides us with the shape and form for our bodies as well as supporting‚ protecting‚ allowing our body to move freely‚ producing blood for the body‚ and storing minerals. The Skeletal System is the system of our body that gives our body its physical shape and with the help of the Muscular System it keeps us moving and makes us able to do tasks that we don’t think about like raising our leg to kick a football or using our legs to boost

    Muscle contractions are the way that humans are able to move within the enviornment that surrounds them. To be able to understand the complexity of movement‚ there needs to be an understanding of the gross and micro-anatomy muscle contraction‚ and an understanding of the physiology of muscle contraction. This paper will provide an explaination of both the anatomy and physiology of muscle contraction. Anatomy of Muscle Contraction There are three types of muslces within the human body: skeletal
