Internal Muscle Anatomy & Physiology
Powerpoint Lecture
This Powerpoint lecture dissects a single muscle into the individual fascicles and fibers that it is made of. Students will learn how the individual protein filaments within a muscle fiber work together to produce a contraction. The immediate, short-term, and long-term energy sources available to muscle tissue are also covered.
Essential concepts: Muscle Anatomy, skeletal muscle, fascia, muscle fiber, neurotransmitters, motor unit, motor neuron, twitch, summation, ATP, cell respiration, fermentation, steroids, muscle disorders.
Instructor Resources: A complete test bank, answer keys, and lab guides are available at the subscription page.
