Document Summary
Lecture #22: muscle physiology iii: 1st may 2018: Identify the muscle receptors and explain their role in spinal reflexes in skeletal muscle control. Describe how the nervous system (including reflexes) control muscle contraction. Outline the physiological properties of motor units. Describe different muscle fibre types and their properties. Describe the recruitment patterns of motor units in relation to the nervous system control of force generation. Just a synapse specialised type of synapse- if 2 nmj- one point in life- muscles will tear itself apart because one side will be contracting, and one part will be pulling itself away. The point of contact where your somatic peripheral nervous system controls your muscles the neuron- involved with creating movement/motor activity is called a motor neuron. Every single muscle fibre (cell)( has exactly 1 nmj: contraction in each fibre is only controlled by the firing of 1 single motor neuron. Do not want too many cells- each muscle fibre has one.
