Slide Shows for Anatomy & Physiology: Muscular System

Teachers: Student fill in notes to accompany each slide show are available in Google Doc format in my TpT store ​

Module 4 Microscopic Muscle Anatomy

Slide Show #1 Microscopic Muscle Anatomy

This slide show covers:
  • Functions of muscles
  • 3 types of muscle tissue (skeletal, cardiac, smooth)
  • Characteristics of all muscles
  • Skeletal muscle fiber structures
  • Structure of a skeletal muscle
  • Connective tissue wrappings of a skeletal muscle
  • The sarcomere
  • Actin & myosin
  • Attachments of skeletal muscle

Slide Show #2 Muscle Contraction & Sliding Filament Theory

This slide show covers:
  • Skeletal muscle contraction
  • Neuromuscular junction
  • Action potentials 
  • Excitation-contraction coupling
  • Steps of muscular contraction
  • Sliding Filament Model
  • Cross-bridge cycling
  • Muscle relaxation
  • Energy sources for contraction
  • Oxygen debt
  • Muscular response to stimulus 
  • Threshold stimulus
  • All or none response
  • Muscle fatigue
  • Twitch, summation, tetanus
  • Isotonic & isometric contractions

Slide Show #3 Skeletal Muscle Actions

This slide show covers:
  • Muscles as levers
  • Origin & insertion
  • How skeletal muscles interact (agonist, prime mover, synergist, antagonist)
  • Ways muscles are named 
  • Muscle Actions (common surface muscles of the head & shoulders, trunk, arm, and leg and their actions)
