Skeletal Muscle Tissue: Contraction, Sarcomere, Myofibril Anatomy Myology

Показать описание
Skeletal muscle tissue is one of three types of muscle tissue in the human body. The other two types of muscle tissue include cardiac and smooth muscle tissue.

Skeletal muscles attach mostly to bones, and they allow us to move our bodies voluntarily via the somatic nervous system.

Skeletal muscles are organs, and they are surrounded by a layer of connective tissue called epimysium. Fascicles within the muscle organ consist of several muscle fibers, and the fascicle is surrounded by perimysium.

The individual muscle fibers are surrounded by connective tissue called endomsium, as well as a cell membrane called sarcolemma.

Within each muscle fiber are many myofibrils, which are surrounded by sarcoplasm. The myofibrils are made up of repeating contractile units called sarcomeres.

Sarcomeres contain filaments that slide during muscle contraction. Thick myosin filaments bend and attach to the thin actin filaments, sliding them toward the midline of the sarcomere. This is known as sliding filament theory.

Sarcomeres are divided into zones and bands, including the H zon, I band, A band, Z disc, and M line.

I am so glad I found your videos Ben because I have been learning and understanding so much with you. I got 100% on my bone quiz the other day. Now I am still learning the muscle song video to help me increase my score from 89 - 100%. This is the next quiz I have to take to help me pass my Group Fitness Exam on 6/29/2020. Your teaching is just perfect for me! Thank you so much! Keep making these videos for lay people like me who changed my career from IT to Fitness and Wellness. :)
