A muscle spasm can be quite painful, with the muscle clenching tightly.   Spasms in various types of tissue may be caused by stress, medication, and overexercise. ]]> 2018-10-25 19:18:53 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297148654 5 basic functions of muscular system este0357 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297149625

Tetanus is commonly known as "lockjaw." ]]> 2018-10-25 19:22:54 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297150517 clonic vs tonic muscle spams este0357 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297151385  Clonic spasms refer to alternating involuntary muscular contraction and relaxation in quick succession. Tonic spasms are rigid muscle contractions that last a period of time. ]]> 2018-10-25 19:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297151385 tetany gsol0898 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297152159
Tetany is a disorder of increased neuronal excitability usually associated with hypocalcemia.  Tetany is a disorder characterized by enhanced neuromuscular excitability that is caused by various metabolic abnormalities. Irrespective of the causative factors, the variable clinical presentation can range from asymptomatic patients to life-threatening emergencies. ]]> 2018-10-25 19:26:57 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297152159 smooth muscle este0357 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297152897  Smooth muscle is found in the walls of hollow organs such as the Stomach, Oesophagus, Bronchi and in the walls of blood vessels.  Smooth muscle is also sometimes known as Involuntary muscle due to our inability to control its movements, or unstriated as it does not have the stripy appearance of Skeletal muscle   voluntary, shaped like long fibers, multinucleated. ]]> 2018-10-25 19:28:47 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297152897 cardiac muscle gsol0898 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297153116  Cardiac muscle tissue is one of the three types of muscle tissue in your body.  Cardiac muscle tissue is only found in your heart, where it performs coordinated contractions that allow your heart to pump blood through your circulatory system.Cardiac muscle tissue works to keep your heart pumping through involuntary movements. ]]> 2018-10-25 19:29:23 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297153116 skeletal muscle este0357 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297154327   its long, thin, multinu cleated fibres are crossed with a regular pattern of fine red and white ]]> 2018-10-25 19:32:39 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297154327 actin gsol0898 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297155317 Actin is a highly conserved, key cytoskeletal protein involved in numerous structural and functional roles.

Two or three hours after a person or animal dies, the muscles start to stiffen. This phenomenon progresses in a downward, head-to-toe direction. In 12 to 18 hours the body is, as the saying goes, stiff as a board. At this stage, you can move the joints only by force, breaking them in the process.]]> 2018-10-26 01:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297232038 automaticity of muscle gsol0898 https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297551571 the ability of a cell to depolarize itself, reach threshold potential, and produce a propagated action potential; cells with this capability are called automatic cells. the state or quality of being spontaneous, involuntary, or self-regulating.

This can be defined as muscle fatigue.Muscle fatigue is a symptom that decreases your muscles’ ability to perform over time. While exercise is a common cause of muscle fatigue, this symptom can be the result of other health conditions, too. ]]> 2018-10-26 19:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/este0357/o3n8gnpyi7hd/wish/297560446
