Professor: Pierre Louis‚ Vertulie 4/16/13 A&P SKELETAL PROJECT! This system has 206 bones and associated cartilage‚ tendons‚ and ligaments. Because bone is unbending‚ it gives the body a structure‚ maintains its shape‚ and protects essential organs. Bones provide a place for muscles and supporting structures to attach‚ and‚ with the movable joints. A joint is a place of union between two or more bones that may be movable or immovable. Bone also functions as a place for mineral storage

excitation-contraction coupling mechanism between skeletal and cardiac muscles. Excitation-contraction coupling is the combination of the electrical and mechanical events in the muscle fibres and is related by the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. (Silverthorn‚ 2007) In the skeletal muscle‚ action potential in the nerves is generated when the somatic motor neurons releases the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh)‚ at the neuromuscular junction. This initiates muscle action potential which is then
