Stimulation and Contraction of Single Skeletal Muscle Cells Excitability (also called responsiveness or irritability) ability to receive and respond to a stimulus Contractility ability to shorten when an adequate stimulus is received Extensibility ability of muscle cells to be stretched Elasticity ability to recoil and resume resting length after stretching 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Nerve Stimulus and Action Potential Skeletal muscles must be stimulated by a motor neuron (nerve cell) to contract Motor unit one motor neuron and all the skeletal muscle cells stimulated by that neuron 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Spinal cord Axon terminals at neuromuscular junctions Motor unit 1 Motor unit 2 Nerve Motor neuron cell bodies Axon of motor neuron Muscle Muscle fibers (a) 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.4a

The Nerve Stimulus and Action Potential Synaptic cleft Gap between nerve and muscle Nerve and muscle do not make contact Action potential (nerve impulse) reaches the axon terminal of the motor neuron Calcium channels open and calcium ions enter the axon terminal 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Transmission of Nerve Impulse to Muscle Calcium ion entry causes some synaptic vesicles to release their contents (acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter) by exocytosis Neurotransmitter chemical released by nerve upon arrival of nerve impulse in the axon terminal The neurotransmitter for skeletal muscle is acetylcholine (ACh) 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Transmission of Nerve Impulse to Muscle Acetylcholine attaches to receptors on the sarcolemma of the muscle cell In response to the binding of ACh to a receptor, the sarcolemma becomes permeable to sodium (Na + ) Sodium rushes into the cell generating an action potential and potassium leaves the cell Once started, muscle contraction cannot be stopped 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Figure 6.5, step 4
5 ACh binds and channels open that allow simultaneous passage of Na + into the muscle fiber and K + out of the muscle fiber. More Na + ions enter than K + ions leave and this produces a local change in the electrical conditions of the membrane (depolarization), which eventually leads to an action potential. Na + K + Ion channel in sarcolemma opens; ions pass. 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.5, step 5
ACh Degraded ACh Na + Ion channel closed; ions cannot pass. 6 ACh effects are ended by its breakdown in the synaptic cleft by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. Acetylcholinesterase K + 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.5, step 6

The Sliding Filament Theory of Muscle Contraction Activation by nerve causes myosin heads (cross bridges) to attach to binding sites on the thin filament Myosin heads then bind to the next site of the thin filament and pull them toward the center of the sarcomere This continued action causes a sliding of the myosin along the actin The result is that the muscle is shortened (contracted) 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Myosin Actin Z I H A Z I (a) Z Z I A I (b) 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.7a b
Protein complex In a relaxed muscle cell, the regulatory proteins forming part of the actin myofilaments prevent myosin binding (see a). When an action potential (AP) sweeps along its sarcolemma and a muscle cell is excited, calcium ions (Ca 2+ ) are released from intracellular storage areas (the sacs of the sarcoplasmic reticulum). (a) Myosin myofilament Actin myofilament 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.8a
(b) Myosin-binding site Ca 2+ Upper part of thick filament only The flood of calcium acts as the final trigger for contraction, because as calcium binds to the regulatory proteins on the actin filaments, the proteins undergo a change in both their shape and their position on the thin filaments. This action exposes myosin-binding sites on the actin, to which the myosin heads can attach (see b), and the myosin heads immediately begin seeking out binding sites. 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Contraction of Skeletal Muscle Muscle fiber contraction is all or none Within a skeletal muscle, not all fibers may be stimulated during the same interval Different combinations of muscle fiber contractions may give differing responses Graded responses different degrees of skeletal muscle shortening 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Contraction of Skeletal Muscle Graded responses can be produced by changing: The frequency of muscle stimulation The number of muscle cells being stimulated at one time 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Types of Graded Responses Twitch Single, brief contraction Not a normal muscle function 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.9a
Types of Graded Responses Summing of contractions One contraction is immediately followed by another The muscle does not completely return to a resting state due to more frequent stimulations The effects are added 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.9b
Types of Graded Responses Unfused (incomplete) tetanus Some relaxation occurs between contractions but nerve stimuli arrive at an even faster rate than during summing of contractions Unless the muscle contraction is smooth and sustained, it is said to be in unfused tetanus 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.9c
Types of Graded Responses Fused (complete) tetanus No evidence of relaxation before the following contractions Frequency of stimulations does not allow for relaxation between contractions The result is a smooth and sustained muscle contraction 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.9d
Muscle Response to Strong Stimuli Muscle force depends upon the number of fibers stimulated More fibers contracting results in greater muscle tension Muscles can continue to contract unless they run out of energy 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Energy for Muscle Contraction Muscles use stored ATP for energy ATP bonds are broken to release energy Only 4 6 seconds worth of ATP is stored by muscles After this initial time, other pathways must be utilized to produce ATP 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Energy for Muscle Contraction Direct phosphorylation of ADP by creatine phosphate (CP) Muscle cells store CP 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. CP is a high-energy molecule After ATP is depleted, ADP is left CP transfers a phosphate group to ADP, to regenerate ATP CP supplies are exhausted in less than 15 seconds About 1 ATP is created per CP molecule
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.10a
Energy for Muscle Contraction Aerobic respiration Glucose is broken down to carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy (about 32 ATP) A series of metabolic pathways occur in the mitochondria This is a slower reaction that requires continuous oxygen Carbon dioxide and water are produced 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.10c
Energy for Muscle Contraction Anaerobic glycolysis and lactic acid formation Reaction that breaks down glucose without oxygen Glucose is broken down to pyruvic acid to produce about 2 ATP Pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid This reaction is not as efficient, but is fast Huge amounts of glucose are needed Lactic acid produces muscle fatigue 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 6.10b
Muscle Fatigue and Oxygen Deficit When a muscle is fatigued, it is unable to contract even with a stimulus Common cause for muscle fatigue is oxygen debt Oxygen must be repaid to tissue to remove oxygen deficit Oxygen is required to get rid of accumulated lactic acid Increasing acidity (from lactic acid) and lack of ATP causes the muscle to contract less 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Types of Muscle Contractions Isotonic contractions Myofilaments are able to slide past each other during contractions The muscle shortens and movement occurs Example: bending the knee; rotating the arm Isometric contractions Tension in the muscles increases The muscle is unable to shorten or produce movement Example: push against a wall with bent elbows 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Muscle Tone Some fibers are contracted even in a relaxed muscle Different fibers contract at different times to provide muscle tone and to be constantly ready 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Effect of Exercise on Muscles Exercise increases muscle size, strength, and endurance Aerobic (endurance) exercise (biking, jogging) results in stronger, more flexible muscles with greater resistance to fatigue Makes body metabolism more efficient Improves digestion, coordination Resistance (isometric) exercise (weight lifting) increases muscle size and strength 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

Five Golden Rules of Skeletal Muscle Activity 1. With a few exceptions, all skeletal muscles cross at least one joint. 2. Typically, the bulk of a skeletal muscle lies proximal to the joint crossed. 3. All skeletal muscles have at least two attachments: the origin and the insertion. 4. Skeletal muscles can only pull; they never push. 5. During contraction, a skeletal muscle insertion moves toward the origin. 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Muscles and Body Movements Movement is attained due to a muscle moving an attached bone Muscles are attached to at least two points Origin Attachment to a moveable bone Insertion Attachment to an immovable bone 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
