The Muscular System
Labs 7 & 8
In Lab today:
• Draw the muscle types & indicated structures from
prepared slides
• Identify the portions of skeletal muscle from diagrams,
slides and models
• Identify the connective tissue coverings associated with
skeletal muscle
• Draw the neuromuscular junction from a prepared
slide & identify the indicated structures
• Identify the human muscles from models and diagrams
• Study models and diagrams in preparation for the
muscle quiz in 2 weeks
Objective 1
Types of Muscle Tissue
Skeletal Muscle
Location
Structure
Function
Attached to the
skeleton
Long, thin cells (fibers) are:
- striated
- multinucleated
- nuclei are in the periphery
of the cell
posture, movement,
stabilizes joints
The plasma
membrane of the
muscle fiber
Striations of the myofibrils are seen through the muscle fiber
Striations: A bands & I bands
(dark bands)
(light bands)
A-bands, I-bands, Sarcomeres, & Sarcolemma

Skeletal Muscle
Note nuclei on the periphery of the cells (fibers)

Longitudinal section, oil immersion
CARDIAC MUSCLE
The heart muscle (myocardium) forms the bulk of the heart.
It is arranged in a spiral or circular bundles.
Cardiac

bundles
“Helical heart” model
CARDIAC MUSCLE
Cardiac Muscle
Location
Structure
Function
Wall of the heart
Cells (myocytes) are:
provide pressure
- faintly striated
- branching
for the circulation
of blood
- with one (or two)
centrally placed nuclei
Cells are connected by intercalated discs
(gap junctions/desmosomes)
Intercalated Disc
Nucleus
Cardiac Muscle
Central nuclei
Branching cells
are in 3-D;
may not be
particularly
visible in 2-D
Intercalated

SMOOTH MUSCLE
Smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow visceral organs.
Contractions force fluids and other substances along.
Cells are arranged closely to form sheets.
Epithelial Tissue

Epithelial Tissue
Smooth Muscle
Location
Walls of hollow
organs
Structure
Cells are:
- spindle shaped
- have a single nucleus
- not striated
Function
move fluids
and other contents

(Myoneural junction)
Neuromuscular Junction
Axon terminal

Muscles
Origin, Insertion, Action, Innervation
Origin
The immovable (or less moveable) bone
to which the muscle is attached
Scapula
Biceps brachii
Insertion
The movable bone to which the muscle is attached
(The bone that the muscle moves)
Radius
Biceps brachii
Action
Joint movement(s) caused by contraction of the muscle
Flexes and supinates forearm
Innervation
The nerve that acts on the muscle
Musculocutaneous
