Document Summary

Info always going to cerebrum / cerebral cortex (in this case the somatosensory area) If information is intense enough, the spine will take over in order to minimize damage. Contract the flexor in the leg where we have stepped on the painful component. Will have to balance the other leg (activate extensor) Smooth muscle: changes the shape in association with organs; will have to line the organs. Arrangement (different and similar to skeletal muscles) Give us the same sort of cbc; where thicks grab thins and pull them. Thins connected via dense bodies (instead of z lines/discs) Instead of parallel arrangement (linear pull everything going in one direction), there is a three dimensional arrangement where we need tension in multiple direction. Radial pull (creating spokes on wheels of bikes) When we have pull happening, we have pull happening in multiple directions (bringing together the dense bodies) Allows three dimensional change, which allows for pressure change.
