This document discusses the levels of structural organization in the human body. It begins with atoms as the building blocks that make up cells. Cells are the smallest and most basic unit of life. Similar cells that work together form tissues. Groups of tissues that perform a specific function are organs. Organ systems are made up of groups of organs that work together for a common purpose. Finally, all the organ systems together make up the whole organism. The document also mentions the four primary types of tissues: epithelium, connective, nervous, and muscle tissue.
Muscular system
The document summarizes the muscular system, noting that it contains around 600 muscles making up 50% of body weight. It divides muscles into involuntary muscles like the heart and smooth muscles that move fluids internally, and voluntary skeletal muscles that can contract and relax on command to enable movement. The document further breaks down muscle types, potential injuries like pulls or cramps, diseases like muscular dystrophy, and the cellular structure of skeletal muscle fibers and how they contract through interactions between actin and myosin proteins.
The Muscular System
The document summarizes the muscular system. There are three types of muscle tissue: cardiac, smooth, and skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is striated and voluntary, attaching to bones to enable movement. It contracts through the sliding filament model, where actin and myosin filaments interact powered by ATP. Motor neurons stimulate muscle fibers at the neuromuscular junction, and calcium ions link electrical signals to contraction. Muscle utilizes creatine phosphate, glycogen, and cellular respiration to fuel contractions and overcome fatigue. Muscular diseases can result from genetic mutations affecting muscle proteins.
Muscle

The skeletal system is composed of bones and connective tissues that provide structure and support to the body. It has several functions including support, protection, movement, blood cell formation, and storing minerals. There are 206 bones in the human body that are classified as long, short, flat, or irregular. All bones consist of compact bone on the outside and spongy bone on the inside. Bones contain osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes. Osteoblasts build bone, osteoclasts break down bone, and osteocytes maintain bone tissue. Bone matrix is made up of organic collagen fibers and inorganic minerals like hydroxyapatite that give bone its strength and rigidity.

Finally, it outlines how the course will cover the major skeletal muscles in the body, identifying their attachments, innervation, and functions in producing movement. The document emphasizes developing a working knowledge of muscle anatomy to understand normal movement and support work in allied health fields.
Integumentary System
The document provides information about the human body's integumentary, skeletal, and muscular systems. It describes the structure and functions of skin, bones, joints, and muscles. Key points include that skin is the body's largest organ, bones provide structure and store minerals, and muscles work in opposing pairs to enable movement when contracted or relaxed.
Skeletal, joint, muscle systems
The skeletal system provides structure, protection, movement and other essential functions for the body. There are various types of bones including long, short, flat and irregular bones. Bone structure consists of compact and spongy bone tissue with osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteoclasts regulating bone formation and resorption. Bones are formed through intramembranous or endochondral ossification. The muscular system allows for body movement through skeletal muscle contraction and relaxation via the sliding filament mechanism. Muscle fibers contain myofibrils with overlapping thick and thin filaments that shorten during contraction.

OVERVIEW
Muscle is a tissue characterized by irritability
and contractility. It is composed of elongated cells
called myocytes that contain contractile proteins
organized as cytoplasmic filaments. Muscle cells are
attached to bones and soft tissues, and thereby
accomplish mechanical movements as a consequence
of their contraction (shortening). Traditionally,
three types of muscle tissue are recognized:
skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Skeletal and
cardiac muscle are classified as striated muscles
based on the appearance of striations that run
perpendicular to the long axis of the cells. The
striations are due to a highly ordered, repetitive
organization of two filamentous contractile proteins
- actin and myosin, which are arranged into thin and
thick filaments, respectively. Smooth muscle lacks
striations due to a less structured, looser
arrangement of its contractile filaments. In muscle
terminology, the sarcolemma refers to the muscle
cell membrane, the sarcoplasm refers to the
cytoplasm, and the sarcoplasmic reticulum
refers to the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
Chapter 32.2
There are three main types of muscle tissue in the human body: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Skeletal muscle is striated and attached to bones, enabling voluntary movement. Smooth muscle is found in internal organs and blood vessels, allowing involuntary functions. Cardiac muscle is found only in the heart, where it contracts rhythmically to pump blood throughout the body. Muscle contraction occurs via a sliding filament model, where myosin cross-bridges attach and pull actin filaments inward, shortening the sarcomere. Skeletal muscles connect to bones via tendons and work in opposing pairs to leverage bones and create movement around joints.
Musculoskeletal System
The human musculoskeletal system allows for movement through the interaction of bones, muscles, and joints. It is composed of the skeletal system, made up of bones that provide structure, support, and protection to the body; the muscular system, containing muscles that pull bones to enable movement; and joints, ligaments, and tendons that connect bones and muscles to facilitate motion. Together, these subsystems work in tandem to provide form, support, stability, and a range of movements to the human body.

This document provides an overview of the histology of the muscular system for medical science students. It begins with an introduction to muscle tissues and contractile cells, outlining the three main types of muscle tissues: skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle. It then discusses the distinguishing characteristics, structures, and functions of each type of muscle tissue in more detail. The document also covers the contractile elements within muscle tissues, as well as the processes of injury, repair, and regeneration of skeletal and cardiac muscle fibers.
Muscular system
The muscular system provides motor power for all body movements through skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. Skeletal muscles are voluntary striated muscles attached to bones by tendons that allow movement. Smooth muscles are involuntary and non-striated, found in organs. Cardiac muscle is exclusively in the heart. Each muscle fiber contains contractile myofilaments that slide past each other during contraction. Muscle contraction is stimulated by motor neurons at neuromuscular junctions. Contraction allows movement through pulling bones via tendons attached at muscle origins and insertions.

Muscle by Ms. Agapito
The document summarizes the muscular system. It describes the three main types of muscle tissue - skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle. It explains the characteristics, functions, and locations of each type. It also describes the microscopic structure of muscle from the whole muscle down to the protein filaments. The mechanics of muscle contraction are explained using the sliding filament model. Key terms like sarcomere, myosin, actin, and cross-bridges are defined in relation to how muscles contract.
Unit Three - Excitable Tissues (Muscle).ppt
Muscles contribute to homeostasis through movement, substance transport, and heat generation. Muscle contraction occurs when skeletal muscle fibers shorten via the sliding of thick and thin myofilaments past each other within sarcomeres. There are three types of muscle tissue - skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle - which differ in structure and control. Skeletal muscle is striated and voluntary, cardiac muscle is striated and involuntary, and smooth muscle is non-striated and involuntary.
Muscle tissuePress(B).pptx
1) Skeletal muscle tissue consists of long, cylindrical multinucleated cells called muscle fibers. Muscle fibers contain contractile myofibrils composed of actin and myosin filaments that generate force.
2) Muscle fibers are classified based on their structure and function into three types - skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle. Skeletal muscle is striated and voluntary.
3) The basic contractile unit of skeletal muscle is the sarcomere, composed of overlapping actin and myosin filaments. Contraction occurs when the filaments slide past each other towards the center of the sarcomere.

This document summarizes key concepts around evolution of populations including genes and variation, evolution as genetic change, and the process of speciation. It discusses Darwin's ideas, genetic variation through mutations and gene shuffling, how natural selection can lead to changes in allele frequencies and evolution, and the roles of genetic drift, genetic equilibrium, reproductive isolation, and speciation through founders arriving, separation of populations, changes in gene pools, and reproductive isolation.
6chapter18
Binomial nomenclature provides a two-part naming system for species, with the first word being the genus and the second being the specific epithet. Linnaeus established a seven-level hierarchical system of classification including kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. Cladograms and molecular clocks use DNA comparisons to represent evolutionary relationships and time since divergence between organisms. The three domains of life are Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya, with Bacteria and Archaea being prokaryotic and unicellular, and Eukarya containing multicellular eukaryotes including plants, animals, fungi, and most protists.
6chapter38
The document discusses the key components and functions of the digestive and excretory systems. It covers the mouth, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, small intestine, large intestine, kidneys, and homeostasis. The digestive system breaks down food through mechanical and chemical digestion to extract nutrients, while the excretory system, including the kidneys and bladder, filters waste from the blood and removes it from the body.
6chapter39
The endocrine system is made up of glands that release hormones into the bloodstream. Hormones affect target cells that have receptors for that hormone and can take minutes to days to have their full effect. There are two main types of glands: exocrine glands that release secretions through ducts and endocrine glands that release directly into the bloodstream. The pituitary gland controls the functions of other endocrine glands like the thyroid, which regulates metabolism, and the adrenals, which help the body deal with stress. Feedback mechanisms help regulate hormone levels to maintain homeostasis.
6chapter40
The document discusses the immune system and diseases, including infectious diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, protists, and fungi that are spread through various means. It describes the immune system's nonspecific defenses like the skin and inflammatory response, as well as its specific defenses through antibodies. The document also covers allergies as an overreaction of the immune system, autoimmune disorders where the immune system attacks the body's own cells, and cancer which occurs when cell growth controls fail. It lists chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery as common cancer treatment methods.
6chapter11
This document summarizes key concepts from Chapter 11 on genetics. It discusses Gregor Mendel's work with pea plants, the principles of dominance and segregation. It also explains probability and Punnett squares, Mendel's two-factor crosses, his principles of inheritance, meiosis, the differences between mitosis and meiosis, and gene mapping.
6chapter35
The document discusses the nervous system and its key components and functions. The nervous system coordinates the body's responses to environmental changes and consists of the central nervous system, made up of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system of nerves. The brain contains five main parts and the spinal cord functions like a phone line. The senses detect changes in the environment via sensory receptors and relay this information to the brain. Drugs can impact the nervous system by acting as stimulants, depressants, or by other means of changing brain structure and function.
6chapter37
The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to transport oxygen, nutrients, and waste throughout the body. The circulatory system includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood. The heart pumps blood through a double circulatory pathway. Blood is composed of red blood cells, which carry oxygen, and white blood cells, which help fight infection. The respiratory system includes the nose, throat, lungs, and diaphragm. It takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide through breathing. Disorders of these systems can impair circulation or respiration and cause issues like heart disease or stroke.
6 Chapter14
This document summarizes key concepts about the human genome. It explains that humans have 46 chromosomes, including sex chromosomes that determine gender as XX for females and XY for males. It describes how traits are passed down from parents according to Mendel's laws of inheritance. Genes located on DNA code for proteins and determine traits, with some on the X and Y chromosomes being sex-linked. Chromosomal disorders can occur if homologous chromosomes do not separate properly during cell division. Gene therapy involves replacing a non-working gene with a normal gene, with the first successful therapy occurring in 1999.
6chapter12
DNA stores and transmits genetic information from one generation to the next. Watson and Crick discovered that DNA has a double helix structure with two strands wound around each other. DNA replication and transcription produce new DNA and RNA molecules, while translation uses RNA to produce proteins according to the genetic code stored in DNA. Mutations are changes in the DNA sequence that affect the genetic information.
4 Chapter11
This document provides an overview of key concepts in genetics including:
1) Gregor Mendel conducted experiments with pea plants to discover the laws of inheritance and established the concepts of genes, traits, dominance, and segregation.
2) Probability and Punnett squares can be used to predict the possible outcomes of genetic crosses and determine genotypes and phenotypes.
3) Other Mendelian genetics concepts explored are independent assortment, incomplete dominance, codominance, multiple alleles, and polygenic traits which result from the interaction of multiple genes.
4) Meiosis is the process where the number of chromosomes is halved through homologous chromosome separation in diploid cells.

The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

Gene Expression System-viral gene delivery Mpharm(Pharamaceutics)
Gene therapy can be broadly defined as the transfer of genetic material to cure a disease or at least to improve the clinical status of a patient.
One of the basic concepts of gene therapy is to transform viruses into genetic shuttles, which will deliver the gene of interest into the target cells.
Safe methods have been devised to do this, using several viral and non-viral vectors.
In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery.
The biggest hurdle faced by medical research in gene therapy is the availability of effective gene-carrying vectors that meet all of the following criteria:
Protection of transgene or genetic cargo from degradative action of systemic and endonucleases,
Delivery of genetic material to the target site, i.e., either cell cytoplasm or nucleus,
Low potential of triggering unwanted immune responses or genotoxicity,
Economical and feasible availability for patients .
Viruses are naturally evolved vehicles that efficiently transfer their genes into host cells.
Choice of viral vector is dependent on gene transfer efficiency, capacity to carry foreign genes, toxicity, stability, immune responses towards viral antigens and potential viral recombination.
There are a wide variety of vectors used to deliver DNA or oligo nucleotides into mammalian cells, either in vitro or in vivo.
The most common vector system based on retroviruses, adenoviruses, herpes simplex viruses, adeno associated viruses.
