Skeletal muscle is voluntary muscle that is attached to bones and controls movement. It comprises 40-50% of body weight and there are approximately 650 muscles. Skeletal muscle contracts and relaxes in alternating fashion using ATP to generate movement.
Cardiac muscle is involuntary muscle found only in the heart. It has a striated appearance and coordinates contractions to pump blood through the circulatory system. Cardiac muscle cells connect through intercalated discs to contract in a wave-like pattern.
Smooth muscle is involuntary muscle found in organs and passageways like the stomach, intestines, arteries and veins. It controls involuntary functions like digestion and regulates blood flow. Smooth muscle lacks striations and responds to chemical and neural stimuli for

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.

The Muscular System
By Thiru murugan. M
The Muscular system:
Types and structure of muscles
Muscle groups: muscles of the head, neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, upper limb and lower limbs
Principal muscles: deltoid, biceps, triceps, respiratory, abdominal, pelvic floor, pelvic floor muscles, gluteal muscles and vastus lateralis
Major muscles involved in nursing procedures
Muscle:
Muscle is a soft tissue and it is one of the 4 basic tissues, along with nervous tissue, epithelium, and connective tissue.
Muscles helps in movement, support and protection of internal organs.
Muscles can perform variety of functions
Muscles tissue is made up of cells called “MYOCYTES” or muscle fibers.
There are more than 600 muscles in the human body. A kind of elastic tissue makes up each muscle, which consists of thousands, or tens of thousands, of small muscle fibers.
Types of Muscles: There are 3 main types of muscles
Skeletal muscle
Cardiac muscle
Smooth muscle
Skeletal muscle:
These are having close relationship to the bone or skeleton, so called Skeletal muscles
It present in limbs and related body parts & It form about 40% of body weight.
Under microscope the skeletal muscles fibers shows prominent striations, so called “Striated Muscles” & It is also known as “Voluntary Muscles” (movements are under our control)
Structure of Skeletal muscle:
Muscle fibers shows transverse striations under light microscope so it is called “striated muscles”
The nucleus is located peripherally.
Each skeletal muscle is an organ that consists of numerous cells called muscle fibers.
Each muscle fibers surrounded by “ Endomysium”
Inside each skeletal muscle, muscle fibers are organized into bundles, called fascicles, each fascicle surrounded by perimysium.
The whole muscle is covered by “epimysium”
Each skeletal muscle has three layers: endomysium, perimysium and epimysium
Muscle fibers:
Muscle is composed of many long cylindrical-shaped elongated fibres called muscle fibers
Length varies according to the size and shape of the muscles.
The actual arrangement of the fibres depending on the function of the muscle.
Each muscle fibers covered by a membrane is called the sarcolemma.
The cytoplasm of a muscle fiber is called Sarcoplasm
In sarcoplasm there are many mitochondria and bundles of fine longitudinal thread like part is called “myofibrils”
Microscopic structure of myofibrils:
A myofibril (also known as a muscle fibril or sarcostyle) is a basic rod-like part of a muscle cell.
Muscles are composed of tubular cells called myocytes, known as muscle fibres in striated muscle, and these cells in turn contain many chains of myofibrils.
They are created during embryonic development in a process known as myogenesis.
Under light microscope each myofibril consist of 2 bands:
Light band or “I” Band & Dark band or “A” Band
The alternating pattern of these bands results in the striated appearance of skeletal muscle.
Light band or “I” Band:

2. • Muscles is a contractile tissue which brings about
movement.
• Muscle cell responsible for our movement both visible and
invisible, example walking, talking, bowel movement
,urination, breathing, heartbeats, the dilation and constriction
of the pupils of our eyes and many other.
• When we are still sitting or standing muscle cells keep us
erect.
• Muscles can be regarded as motors of the body.
• Muscles comprises about 40% to 50% (approximate) of
body weight.
• There are approximate 650 muscles in body.
• Alternating contraction and relaxation of cells
MUSCLES
3. FUNCTION OF MUSCLES
• The core function of muscle is convert chemical
energy (ATP) into mechanical force
• Producing movement:-muscles move the bone of
skeletal by their connective tissue attachment. Enable all
kinds of voluntary movement.
• Maintaining posture and body position:- when not
moving the various part of supportive skeletal are held
in position by isomeric muscles contraction.
• Stabilizing joint:-
• Maintains body temperature:-muscle contraction
generates heat that is involve in maintaining body
temperature.
4. PROPERTIES OF MUSCLES
1.Excitability –it is the ability to response to a stimulus,
which may be delivered from a motor or a hormone .
2. Contractibility- it is the ability of muscle cells to
forcefully shorten.
3. Extensibility- is the ability to be stretched. Lack of
extensibility is called spasticity.
4.Elasticity –it is the ability to recoil or bounce back to
the muscle’s original length after being stretched.
• Muscles have been classified using different criteria ,
namely location , appearance and nature of regulation of
their activities. Base on location , three types of muscles
are identified.
5.
6. SKELETAL MUSCLE
• Skeletal muscles are also called striped muscles or
voluntary.
• Muscles, they are attached to bone and move the
skeletal.
• They control the movement of the body in relation to
the Environment, e.g. hands, arms, legs,neck, trunk, eyes.
• skeletal muscle are multinucleate.
• Skeletal muscle is voluntary because its contraction is
always stimulated and controlled by the nervous system.
• The Central Nervous System sends a signal to the
muscles via nerves which then convert chemical energy
into movement and the muscles.
7.
8. IMPORTANT TERM
• Myofibril:-complex organelle compose of bundle of myofilaments
• Myofilament:-macromolecular structure of contractile protein
• Sarcomere:-the smallest, single contracting unit of a segment
• Deep fascia:-binds large groups of muscles into functional groups
• Muscle:-hundred of fascicles bound together epimysium
• Fascicle:- thousands of muscle fibers bound into discrete unit by
perimysium
• Muscle fiber:-single muscle cell surrounded by endomysium. Muscle
cell are called muscle fibers.
• Sarcolemma:-plasma or cell membrane of a muscle cell
• Sarcoplasm:- cytoplasm of muscle cell with large amounts of glycogen
and myoglobin
• Myoglobin:-red pigmented oxygen –binding protein
• Connective tissue layer:-Epimysium, Perimysium, Endomysium.
• Contraction depends on two kind of myofilament :- 1. Actin 2. Myosin
9.

11.
12. Microanatomy of Skeletal Muscle
• Skeletal muscle cells develop when hundreds of individual
embryonic cells called myoblasts fuse. The resulting cells' cell
membrane is called the sarcolemma and the cytoplasm is
called sarcoplasm
• Skeletal muscles are very large. Their diameter is about
100 microns (about 13 times the diameter of a red blood
cell) and they can be as long as 30 to 40 cm (10 to 16 in.
• Skeletal muscles are multinucleate. The nuclei of the
myoblasts that fuse to form the cell remain within the cell.
Some myoblasts do not fuse but remain associated with the
fiber as satellite cells that can divide and differentiate to
repair damaged cells
13.
14. Myofibrils:- • each skeletal muscle cell or fiber there are
cylindrical structures called myofibrils. • Contraction of the
myofibrils result in contraction of the entire cell.
sarcoplasmic reticulum:- • In between the loops of
transverse tubule, there is a network of tubules of smooth
endoplasmic reticulum called the sarcoplasmic reticulum.
terminal cisternae:- • The sarcoplasmic reticulum
surrounds the myofibril like a sleeve. The sarcoplasmic
reticulum on either side of the loops of transverse tubules
fuse to form expanded chambers called terminal
cisternae.
15. Triad:- • The combination of a transverse tubule flanked
by two terminal cisternae is called a triad.
Mitochondria:- • The energy for muscle contraction is
supplied by the numerous mitochondria that surround the
myofibrils.
Glycogen granules:- • Glycogen granules that also
surround the myofibrils as a ready source of fuel.
Sarcomeres:- • The myofilaments are organized in
repeating units along the length of the myofibril called
sarcomeres.
16.

20. Thin Filaments
• The thin filament is composed of 300-400 G-actin protein
molecules that form a linear molecule called F-actin. The F-actin
molecules are held together by another protein called nebulin.
• Each G-actin molecule has an active site that binds to a site on
the myosin molecule. This binding is prevented by another protein
called tropomyosin that covers the active site on the actin.
• Tropomyosin is held in position by a protein called troponin.
When calcium ions bind to troponin, the position of tropomyosin
changes to uncover the binding site and permits the binding of
actin to myosin.
• At either end of the sarcomere the actin filaments are attached
to the Z line or disc by a protein called actinin.
21.
22. Functions of Skeletal Muscles
• Skeletal muscles support the body. Skeletal muscle contraction opposes the force of
gravity and allows us to remain upright. Some skeletal muscles are serving this
purpose even when you think you are relaxed.
• Skeletal muscles make bones and other body parts move. Muscle contraction
accounts not only for the movement of limbs but also for eye movements, facial
expressions, and breathing.
• Skeletal muscles help maintain a constant body temperature.
• Skeletal muscle contraction causes ATP to break down, releasing heat that is
distributed about the body.
• Skeletal muscle contraction assists movement in cardiovascular and lymphatic
vessels. The pressure of skeletal muscle contraction keeps blood moving in
cardiovascular veins and lymph moving in lymphatic vessels.
• Skeletal muscles help protect internal organs and stabilize joints.
• Muscles pad the bones that protect organs, and they have tendons that help hold
bones together at joints.
• support the skeleton and create movement. • maintain joint stability and posture.
• control range of movement.
• protect the skeleton and internal organs from trauma. every skeletal muscle fiber is
supplied with a nerve ending that controls its activity.
23. CARDIAC MUSCLE
• Cardiac muscles the present in heart. it constitutes bulk of the heart walls. Many
cardiac muscle cells assemble in a branching pattern to form a cardiac muscle.
• Base on appearance cardiac muscle are striated. • They are involuntary in
nature as the nervous system does not control their activities directly.
• Most of us have no conscious control how fast our heart beats.
• Cardiac muscle fibers each have one to two nuclei and are physically and
electrically connected to each other
• Highly coordinated contractions of cardiac muscle pump blood into the vessels of
the circulatory system.
• same banding organization as skeletal muscle. • cardiac muscle fibers are
shorter than skeletal muscle fibers and usually contain only one nucleus
• which is located in the central region of the cell. Cardiac muscle fibers also
possess many mitochondria and myoglobin, as ATP is produced primarily through
aerobic metabolism.
• An intercalated disc allows the cardiac muscle cells to contract in a wave-like
pattern so that the heart can work as a pump.
• autorhythmic because of built in pacemaker.
24.
25. PROPERTIES OF CARDIAC MUSCLE
1. Rhythmicity:-rhythmicity mean the ability of heart
to beat regularly without external stimulation.it is
myogenic in origin not neurogenic.
2. Conductivity:-The ability to conduct impulse from
one cell to another---facilitated by the presence of
gap junctions that transmit electrical currents.
3. Excitability:-The heart muscle responds to stimuli
which may be mechanical, electrical or chemical.
26. Cardiac Muscle Contraction
• Thick and thin myofilaments are arranged the same as they are in skeletal
muscle with the same bands, zones, and lines.
• Cardiac muscle contracts and relaxes rapidly, continuously, and rhythmically.
• The branching cardiac muscle fibers form a network and the networks are
located in the walls of the chambers of the heart.
• Cardiac muscle is stimulated by specialized conducting tissues within the heart.
• SR and T tubules are well developed‚ so a large amount of calcium can be
released rapidly through the T tubules.
• contains more mitochondria in each muscle cell than skeletal and smooth
muscles‚ providing more ATP energy for continuous contraction.
• muscle cells are joined by intercalated disks‚ and allow
• muscle groups to form branching networks - both features are necessary for
cardiac muscle to function as a unit sancytium.
• unique arrangement of actin and myosin filaments produces the cross-
striations (an optical illusion the microscope)‚ and rapid contraction with powerful
forces involved.
27. SMOOTH MUSCLES
• Smooth muscle is also present in the eyes, where it functions to change the
size of the iris and alter the shape of the lens
• Smooth muscle is present in the walls of hollow organs like the urinary bladder,
uterus, stomach, intestines, and in the walls of passageways, such as the arteries
and veins of the circulatory system,and the tracts of the respiratory, urinary, and
reproductive systems.
• in the skin where it causes hair to stand erect in response to cold temperature
or fear.• Smooth muscle non- striated and involuntary. (function are automatically)
• It surrounds and is found in all internal tissues and organs. Smooth muscle
responds to stimuli from the autonomic nervous system.
• It is responsible for pushing food through the digestive system and the physical
control of the bladder and bowel.
• It is also found in the vascular and reproductive systems.• Smooth muscles
contain filaments of actin and myosin . • Lack transverse tubules and S.R. is not
well developed .
• Hormones and stretching affect smooth muscle contractions .Can contract for a
long period of time . • Cells much smaller than skeletal muscle.
28. Smooth Muscle Contraction
• Smooth muscle contraction resembles skeletal muscle contraction in
that they both involve reactions of actin and myosin, they are
triggered by nerve impulses along the sarcolemma and the release of
calcium ions, and they use energy from ATP molecules.
• Smooth muscle is slower to contract and slower to relax than
skeletal muscle.
• Some smooth muscles respond to neural and chemical stimuli.
Chemical factors cause muscle contraction and relaxation
• without an action potential and inhibit or stimulate the release of
calcium ions into the sarcoplasm.
• The chemical factors include hormones, lack of oxyqen, low pH,
and excess carbon dioxide.
• The direct response of smooth muscle to chemical stimuli allows
activity according to local tissue needs.
29. Shortening in Smooth Muscle
• Actin & myosin overlap
• Slide along each other during contraction
• Meshwork becomes more compact
• Cell shortens and fattens
• Increase in intracellular free Ca++ is necessary
for contraction Mechanisms to trigger Ca increase
• Spontaneous Membrane depolarization
• Chemical messengers Local & blood-borne;
Hormones , metabolites
