It's fun to learn MUSCULAR SYSTEM...
This is primarily a synthesis of the topic including the different types of Muscular System, their movement, functions, sample practical exercises, categories on how muscles got its names, examples of diseases and its causes and effects, and a fun trivia to motivate the class...
Enjoy! God bless you all :)
it's about the skeletal system and the types of joint
in this slide show, I have told about the axial and appendicular skeleton and the six types of synovial joints like ball and socket joint, saddle joint, hinge joint, pivot joint, gliding joint and the condyloid joint.

The muscular system is a complex network of tissues and organs responsible for movement, stability, and heat generation in the human body. Comprising more than 600 individual muscles, it enables various functions, including locomotion, posture maintenance, breathing, and circulation assistance. Muscles are composed of muscle fibers, which are elongated cells capable of contracting and relaxing to generate force. Skeletal muscles, attached to bones via tendons, facilitate voluntary movements, such as walking and lifting objects, under conscious control. Smooth muscles, found in organs like the digestive tract and blood vessels, perform involuntary functions like peristalsis and regulating blood flow. Cardiac muscle, exclusively present in the heart, sustains its rhythmic contractions to pump blood throughout the body. The muscular system works in coordination with the skeletal, nervous, and circulatory systems to ensure efficient movement and overall bodily function. Regular exercise and proper nutrition are essential for maintaining muscular health and strength throughout life.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

4. Functions of the Muscles
• Movement
• Maintenance of posture and
muscle tone
• Heat production
• Protects the bones and
internal organs.
5. Muscle Classification
Functionally
• Voluntarily – can be moved at will
• Involuntarily – can’t be moved intentionally
Structur ally
• Striated – have stripes across the fiber
• Smooth – no striations

7. Smooth Muscle
Fibers are thin
and spindle
shaped.
No striations
Single nuclei
Involuntary
Contr acts
slowly
8. Smooth Muscle
They fatigue… but very slowly
Found in the circulatory system
• Lining of the blood vessels
• Helps in the circulation of the blood
Found in the digestive system
• Esophagus, stomach, intestine
• Controls digestion
Found in the respir atory system
• Controls breathing
Found in the urinary system
• Urinary bladder
• Controls urination
9. Cardiac Muscle
Cells are branched and
appear fused with one
another
Has striations
Each cell has a central
nuclei
Involuntary
10. Cardiac Muscle
•Found ONLY in the heart
•Contractions of the heart muscles pump
blood throughout the body and account
for the heartbeat.
11. Skeletal Muscle
Fibers are long
and cylindrical
Has many nuclei
Has striations
-Have alternating
dark and light
bands
Voluntary
12. Functions of Skeletal
Muscle
Maintenance of posture or muscle
tone
•
We are able to maintain our body position
because of tonic contractions in our
skeletal muscles. These contractions
don’t produce movement yet hold our
muscles in position.
Heat production – contraction of
muscles produces most of the heat
required to maintain body
temperature.
13. Structure of Skeletal Muscle
Composed of striated muscle cells
(=muscle fibers) and connective
tissue.
•
Most muscles attach to 2 bones that
have a moveable joint between them.
•
•
•
•
The attachment to the bone that does not
move is the origin.
The attachment to the bone that moves is the
insertion.
Tendons anchor muscle firmly to bones.
Tendons are made of dense fibrous
connective tissue.
Ligaments connect bone to bone at a
joint.
14. Structure of Skeletal
Muscle
Microscopic anatomy
•
•
•
Muscle cells (fibers) are grouped in a
highly organized way in the muscle. The
membrane that surrounds the muscle
cell is called the sarcolemma.
Muscle cells are filled with 2 types of
fine threadlike proteins called
myofilaments: myosin (thick) and actin
(thin). These structures slide past each
other causing the muscle cell to
contract or shorten.
The myofilaments are arranged in the
cells in small units called sarcomeres.
15. Movement of Muscles
Origin: the attachment
of the muscle to the
bone that remains
stationary
Insertion: the
attachment of the
muscle to the bone that
moves
origin
belly
insertion
Belly: the fleshy part
of the muscle between
the tendons of origin
and/or insertion
16. Movement of skeletal
muscle
-These muscles move when the br ain
sends messages to the muscle
•Always work in pairs
2 movements of skeletal muscle
• Contr action (shorten)
• Extension (lengthen)
17. Categories of

What is the smallest muscle in the body?
•
•

What is the biggest muscle in the body?
•
•
Answer: The Gluteus Maximus
The Gluteus Maximus is located in the buttock. It pulls the leg backwards
powerfully for walking and running.
33. • There are muscles in your root hair that give you goose
bumps.
• The hardest working muscle is in the eye. It
approximately move more than 100,000 times a day.
• Contrary to what people say, muscles do not push, but
can only pull.
• Masseters or chewing muscles are the strongest muscle
in the body.
• As the body gets cold, heat is generated due to shivering
which causes rapid muscle contractions.
• Muscles can tear in similar manner like you tear your
ligaments or break your bones, and over a period of time
with minimal help, they can mend themselves.
34. There are about 60 muscles in the face.
Smiling is easier than
frowning .
It takes 20 muscles to smile and over 40 to frown.
Smile and make someone
happy .
