    Lab 3 – Skeletal Muscle Physiology Introduction Skeletal muscles are composed of hundreds to thousands of individual cells‚ each doing their share of work in the production of force. As their name suggests‚ skeletal muscles move the skeleton. Skeletal muscles are remarkable machines; while allowing us the manual dexterity to create magnificent works of art‚ they are also capable of generating the brute force needed to lift a 100-lb. sack of concrete. When a skeletal muscle from an experimental

    Determining the Latent Period 1. Click Clear Tracings to erase the oscilloscope display. The voltage should be set to 5.0 volts. 2. Drag the 200 msec button to the right edge of the oscilloscope. 3. Click the Stimulate button once‚ and allow the tracing to complete. 4. When you measure the length of the latent period from a printed graph‚ you measure the time between the application of the stimulus and the beginning of the first observable response(increase in force). The computer can’t “look ahead

    SHEET EXERCISE 2 Skeletal Muscle Physiology NAME: Jasmine Young LAB TIME/DATE: 1. Define each of the following terms: • motor unit - A motor unit consists of a motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates. • twitch - Skeletal Muscle twitch is the mechanical response to a single action potential. It has three phases known as the latent‚ contraction‚ and relaxation phase. • threshold - the threshold is the minimal stimulus needed to cause a depolarization of the muscle plasma membrane (sarcolemma

    contraction in skeletal muscle is caused by specialized intracellular thin and thick filaments‚ actin and myosin‚ sliding past each other. Contraction and relaxation of skeletal muscle bring about body movements. These body movements are voluntary and facilitated by the somatic nervous system. Near contact between somatic motor neurons and the muscle fibers are referred to as neuromuscular junctions. It is at the neuromuscular junctions that neurons are able to transmit a signal to the muscle fibers causing

    Skeletal muscle is a voluntary and striated muscle that attaches to the skeleton to allow control over posture and movement. Each skeletal muscle consists of bundles of muscles fibers called fascicles. These fascicles are composed of many individual muscle fibers or muscle cells that can be up to several millimeters long. These muscle fibers are composed of myofibrils‚ which are organized into thick filaments‚ myosin‚ and thin filaments‚ actin. These filaments are organized into repeating structures
