Muscular System
Early in the semester when we talked about tissues, we mentioned there are three
types of muscle tissue: cardiac, skeletal, and smooth.
1) There is a concept/principle in anatomy & physiology called
complementarity, i.e. what a structure can do, depends on its form, or
the way a structure is arranged allows it to do its job. Review the
information on page 259 of your textbook as well as figure 13.1 that
describe the cell structure and function of each muscle variety. The
three types of muscle are also covered at
.
For each muscle type explain how its cell structure enables it to play
its role in the body. (6 pts)
