MUSCLE TISSUES

WHAT ARE MUSCLE
TISSUES?

3
 MUSCLE TISSUE
 a specialized tissue found in animals which
functions by contracting, thereby applying
forces to different parts of the body.
 Muscle tissue consists of fibers of muscle
cells connected together in sheets and
fibers. Together these sheets and fibers and
known as muscles, and control the movements
of an organisms as well as many other
contractile functions.
4
 There are three different types of
muscle found in animals, depending on
their use. While these muscles differ
slightly, they function in a similar
way.

5
Muscle of skeletal is the one of important and
broadly circulated tissue’s muscle tissue
which is made up more than 30 percent of the
body’s aggregate mass. And it shapes the
majority the muscles skeletal, for example,
the gluteus maximus and biceps brachii. It can
be found in the stomach, throat, and rear-end.
Four attributes characterize cells tissue
muscle of skeletal. It is including willful,
striated, not stretched, and multinucleated.

WHY IS IT
IMPORTANT?

7
◍ Muscle tissue originate from mesoderm (one of the
three germ layers). Muscle cell are made up of
fibers called myofibrils. Muscle play an active
role in movement of body. Muscle are of three
types and all three have specific and important
functions where they are present . It helps in
 locomotion
 transport of food
 digestion

8
Muscle tissue contracts.
This contraction has many
effects:
 Movement of skeleton
 Movement of food and waste
through the intestinal tract
 Movement of the eyes
 Constriction or dilation of
the pupils of the eyes for
night or day vision
 Constriction of the Canal of
Schlemm which controls the
amount of fluid in the eye
 Movement of secretory and
excretory events of glands
and organs
 Movement of blood through
the heart
9
 Movement of circulation by
massaging the blood vessels
from the outside [60%]
 Controlling the diameter of
blood vessels, which changes
as you change position
 Movement of lymphatic fluid
by constricting the walls of
the lymphatics [lymphatic
pump/heart]
 Movement of lymphatic fluid
by massaging lymphatic
vessels from the outside
 Chewing and swallowing
 Voice characteristics

SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUE

12
 SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUE
◍ a type of striated muscle, meaning clear bands
can be seen in it under a microscope. These tiny
light and dark bands are sarcomeres, highly
organized bundles of actin, myosin, and
associated proteins. These organized bundles
allow striated muscle to contract quickly and
release quickly.
◍ Skeletal muscle fibers occur in muscles which
are attached to the skeleton.

13
 SKELETAL MUSCLE TISSUE
◍ Muscle tissue is attached to the bones
through tendons, which are highly elastic
portions of connective tissue. Many muscles may
seem to control a single appendage, but in
reality each one only controls one small aspect
of movement. Skeletal muscle tissue can be
controlled voluntarily, by the somatic nervous
system. The other types of muscle are controlled
mainly by the involuntary or autonomous nervous
system.

14
CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUE

15
 CARDIAC MUSCLE TISSUE

◍ only found in the heart, and although it is

striated like skeletal muscle, it
functions involuntarily. Cardiac and most smooth
muscles are autorhythmic-they are capable of
contracting spontaneously without nervous or
hormonal stimulation. The heart contracts
or beats about 100,000 times per day, 36 million
times per year, and about 2.5 billion times over
the course of a life. In just one day our blood
travels about 12,000 miles, our heart pumps about
3 super tankers full of blood.
16
SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE

17
 SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE

◍ Smooth muscle is widely distributed throughout

the body, being found in the walls of hollow
organs such as our digestive, reproductive, and
urinary tracts, tubes such as blood vessels and
airways, and in other locations, such as the
inside of the eye. It gets its name because it
lacks the striped appearance that skeletal and
cardiac muscle display microscopically. Along
with cardiac muscle, smooth muscle is
involuntary-not under our conscious control.

18
 SMOOTH MUSCLE TISSUE

◍ Smooth muscle is sometimes known

as visceral muscle because it is a major
component of many internal (visceral)
organs.
