  1. Muscles

  2. Introduction • You have over 600 skeletal muscles (656-850 depending on who you talk to) • Muscles account for 40% of our body weight

  3. Muscle Tissue • Skeletal Muscles • Are attached to the skeletal system • Allow us to move • The muscular system • Includes only skeletal muscles

  4. Skeletal Muscle Function • Produce movement of the skeleton • Maintain posture and body position • Stabilize joints & Support soft tissues • Maintain body temperature Site of muscle attachments • Bones • Cartilage • Connective tissue coverings

  5. Muscle Properties • Excitability – The ability to respond to stimulation. • Contractility – The ability to shorten and produce a force (tension). • Extensibility – The ability to be elongated (stretched). • Elasticity – The ability to rebound to its original (normal) resting length after being stretched.
