Editor's Notes

  • #5 I now want to talk about the three classes of muscle, and these three classes were generated based on histological appearance and function. Let’s start with a brief overview. Skeletal muscle is striated, in other words, it looks like it has lines running through an individual muscle cell. Skeletal muscle is also voluntary, in other words, you have conscious control over your skeletal muscles, well at least most of them. Skeletal muscle is also multi-nucleated, and when we speak of an individual skeletal cell, we call it a myofiber. Cardiac muscle is also striated, in other words, it looks like there are lines running through the cell. It is involuntary, you do not really have conscious control over how your heart muscle beats. Next, the cardiac muscle appears branched, and I’ll show you an example of that in a little while, and when we speak of cardiac cells we speak of cardiocytes. Smooth muscle is non-striated, and is involuntary, and is fusiform in shape, in other words it looks like a spindle.
  • #7 The word muscle means little mouse, and its because when you flex the muscle the ball of muscle underneath your skin was thought to look like a little mouse. Some properties of muscle include being excitable, that’s means they can generate an electrical response, there are conductive, that means the electrical excitation can spread, in other words travel. Next it has contractility, that means it can shorten, and it has extensibility, in other words you can stretch your muscle. Lastly the muscle has elastic properties, and that basically means it can recoil back into its original shape. The prefixes “myo” and “sarco” also means muscle.
