00:00 back to what I want to look . All Right. Um going

00:05 I want to go back and slide . Alright, so this right here

00:08 the test average. Yeah, not the best, It's it actually was

00:13 little bit less than last semester, it's you know, I mean last

00:18 wasn't great either, but I mean still above passing, it's not where

00:21 want to be, you guys should at least 60%ile, you know,

00:25 the very minimum. And so part this is, you know, I

00:29 as a professor, you can sit and go, why why do my

00:31 do this? You know? And can kind of see here is that

00:36 are these two major peaks, Data analysis, a lot of

00:41 peak here, peak here. So you're really kind of to do

00:44 it would be like this bimodal And what that kind of suggests that

00:48 really two populations. And so then question is, why are we getting

00:52 down here? I mean, if expectation is to get this more of

00:57 bell curve, why are we getting population? And so part of that

01:02 a lot of you guys don't know to study. If you look around

01:04 room. Uh this class is a of 358 students, would you say

01:10 358 of us are here? so part of this is students who

01:16 come to class and they think that can learn on their own. All

01:19 , they can't, you know, reason we have classes is because we

01:23 naturally inclined not to teach ourselves I mean think about anyone here like

01:30 work out you like it. So day when it's time to work out

01:34 get up and you're like yes there's There's like one out of 10,000 people

01:40 that actually a couple of years ago I'm just gonna kind of go off

01:44 this tangent here for a second a of years ago. That's when a

01:46 bunch of the online classes came Right? I mean you had khan

01:51 everyone got khan academy and then I. T. And Harvard produced

01:55 . I. T. And they're free classes for everybody and everyone started

02:00 online taking classes because they're going to these courses, get certifications and everything

02:04 going to be awesome and the field education was going to change magically and

02:11 status started coming in and what it out is like three out of every

02:15 people actually completed the course work. the success rate of completing a course

02:22 your self teaching was three out of 10,000. So that would be nine

02:27 graduate. No sorry 12 people graduating U. of H. annually.

02:35 so it just demonstrates we're not naturally we need someone to kind of push

02:40 . And it's also true about working you know for most people most people

02:45 working out. The reason they go work out is they have someone to

02:49 work out with. And so you of have this accountability partner. So

02:52 , every three days a week I wake up, damn it. You

02:57 , I get in my car and cold and I get to the place

03:01 check in dammit, and then my there and I'm like, all

03:06 this is gonna be too bad. at the end of the workout,

03:08 happy and I like it. And like, all right, I'm looking

03:10 to the next day. But every I get up, it's like,

03:13 don't want to do this, And so part of this is really

03:19 of first wanting to come in and that. All right? Now you're

03:23 there probably looking at some of you in here going wait a second,

03:25 in there and I'm in that group I'm here. So what the hell

03:28 you talking about dr wayne? And answer is because the other problem is

03:34 the course of your entire education, have never been trained how to

03:38 right? I mean, think about . I mean, you started off

03:43 you start off in grade school and said memorize this stuff and you're

03:46 okay, I memorized this stuff and test comes along and I'm gonna vomit

03:49 out on the test and you got a because everyone thinks that's the only

03:52 that you're allowed to earn, And then you moved along and you

03:56 into high school and you forgot to the assignment and then they said,

03:59 , we feel bad for you, , we're gonna let you do it

04:02 over again. You remember that and got to blow things up and there

04:06 no challenge to you and if something work, if you missed messed up

04:10 the first exam, no worries. we have another 12 exam for you

04:13 take, right? And so basically way you do grades and stuff like

04:18 is kind of this meandering and also high school, the other problem is

04:21 that you go to class every day you only cover about this much

04:25 So each test is fairly simple because not a lot of stuff to learn

04:28 then you come to college. Yeah. I already was like,

04:32 amen right now. It's so you to college and all of a sudden

04:36 like I come to class twice a , right? I am told to

04:41 a whole bunch of stuff and memorize whole bunch of stuff and no one's

04:43 me what's really important and I've got figure all this stuff out on my

04:48 and this is not novel, you're the first generation to do this.

04:52 generation has to go through this for hour in the classroom, you're supposed

04:55 spend three hours out of the classroom . That's where those hours come

05:00 Right? That's that's literally how the design is. These spaces during the

05:06 are meant for you to sit down study, not meant for you to

05:09 to the quad and drink coffee. I'm with you, I did the

05:13 same thing. College for me was party. I loved college. That's

05:18 I stayed. Mm hmm. But I'm looking at it from a

05:26 perspective now, as opposed to I'm to get through it. I'm looking

05:29 going, wait, wait, slow down. Let me show you

05:30 to do this, Right? And one of the things you have to

05:33 is you have to learn how to . And so the first thing I

05:36 you guys on the very first day class, I said, if you

05:39 to be successful, there's a methodology how do I know this? Because

05:44 learned it, right. I was at college, right? And I'm

05:50 to tell you how to be good college because ultimately, you know how

05:54 learn and know how to study. nothing that can stop you, but

05:58 have to want dessert. You have say, I don't like the way

06:01 are going right now, I want make change. And if you don't

06:05 to make change, that's fine. not gonna be mad at you.

06:07 not going to sit there and stupid student, I don't do

06:11 right? I want you to be . I'm going to give you the

06:14 to be successful, but I can't the test for you. Alright?

06:18 , if you find yourself struggling first , come and see me.

06:22 Right after class I have office All right now, today I have

06:26 test I'm giving at 11.30. if 30 students show up today after

06:30 , I will not be able to with all of you. I will

06:33 to be out of my office by . So, I can go torture

06:37 group of students. Alright? it's not gonna be so terrible,

06:41 ? But if you're sitting there I'm not getting it. I sit

06:44 and I work and I work and and 90% of students I talked to

06:47 grades and studying are sitting there going worked my tail off. I'm not

06:52 out how come it's not working, it's always about methodology. So,

06:57 can get this group of students this , we can get this group of

07:01 that direction if you know how to . But you have to want

07:05 You have to change things now, to kind of give you a

07:11 stupid thing. Alright? So this comparing the two units. All

07:17 So in other words, it's taking the homeworks and all the exams and

07:21 kind of putting them side by side you can see what's going on here

07:25 you'll notice here the blue line there's a big blue line, big

07:27 line there. So the blue is first unit, oranges, a second

07:31 . And you can see All I got a big one. And

07:34 those people disappeared someplace. But where they disappear to? Well, they

07:39 of went down this direction and we this big blue line here where well

07:42 where they disappeared to they probably went and then down in this direction you'll

07:46 up here on the top end there's students with the exception of that group

07:51 there. They got one extra Right? And so what's going

07:55 Well first off, if you take first exam and you do well on

07:58 , that gives you a sense of , doesn't it? It's like oh

08:00 I got this isn't a problem and you can take the second and I'm

08:03 crap. I've never seen this stuff and that's where that happens. You

08:07 that dive and so that's gonna put bunch of you into panic mode.

08:10 panic. Panic is not a Panic is how you're going to do

08:15 . So what you do is you brush yourself off, look at what

08:18 done and said wait a second, is not working. I've gotta

08:21 I've got to figure out how to And that's what we can work

08:23 All right. But if you find going in, you know, in

08:27 direction kind of say, whoa, me solve this problem. Don't just

08:33 jumping and leaving the class. Some of these down here are students

08:38 have dropped the class and just haven't or ultimately have dropped the class.

08:43 mean, I've got like eight students have never taken a test and he

08:46 like, started the homework assignments and completed any of them. It's

08:50 Like maybe they have one grade, My grade book, I have to

08:54 track of them. And so that's going on down here. So,

08:57 kind of right now, they're pulling downward in terms of the average and

09:01 . But if you're still not meeting you want to be look. Homeworks

09:05 easy. Those are 300. That 20% of your grade. You could

09:09 20% of your grade as 100 percentile you just do them and do them

09:14 time. All right. And I designed the class in such a

09:18 that I am always reviewing materials so the information gets stuck in my

09:23 That's the idea behind it is a trick to make you work and

09:30 And then ultimately the thing that you are Mhm interested in. Now,

09:37 interesting thing is that this curve, these numbers right here are exactly the

09:43 . Well there's like one number that was like that number right there

09:47 to last semester. So what that is is that it's this down here

09:51 that's kind of pulling everything. But can see now look look at

09:55 it's like a it drops off doesn't ? It's like everything's going to the

10:01 and so if you're in this if you average out your stuff and

10:05 like this this you are not far from passing the class, it just

10:09 you got to make some adjustments. you are in this group right

10:12 you're not far away from getting A . And if you're in this group

10:16 over here you're not far away from a B. And getting up here

10:21 an A. Is not difficult to . It's just making these adjustments because

10:25 much of the great do we still left in the class? Half got

10:30 exams and like a million homeworks I see a million, I don't

10:36 , 24 class I guess. 12 assignments, maybe 24 you can go

10:42 it up but there is plenty of to bring your grade up. But

10:47 you're way down here, oh you still bring yourself up but you're not

10:51 be happy with your grades. And so come and talk to

10:55 I'm not gonna tell you, oh you should stay in the class because

10:57 want to structure you for another two or two months or whatever it

11:02 If you're if you're like lost, just gonna tell you know, take

11:05 losses now come back, set you yourself ready and then we can you

11:09 come back again in another semester. . Again. What is my

11:15 Your success? Right? You want go to nursing school? You're gonna

11:19 to change some things. If you to go to dental school, you're

11:22 have to change some things. If find yourself down here. If you're

11:26 here keep doing what you're doing. it's it's working right? If you're

11:30 here, minor tweaks here. Got make some adjustments. Alright. That's

11:36 I'm asking for now. The good . Did you get a week

11:41 Starting today? After today? The bad news is that you get

11:46 week off after that. So, gonna have a lecture today and all

11:51 information is going to go in. if you're like me when I was

11:53 college, your brain is not here . Is your brain here today?

11:59 . You know why? Why would ? I mean there is Galveston's literally

12:03 miles away. If I really want make a fun trip of it can

12:06 down to South Padre, which is four hours away. You can do

12:12 . All right. Some of you many how many of you girls from

12:19 ? You're missing out on college. understand you got some people got to

12:24 . All right. But the problem I'm gonna teach you some stuff today

12:27 it's gonna be easy to forget this . So you've got to figure out

12:30 how do I maintain and retain the I've talked about today. The second

12:35 I want to point out is um was something else about this I wanted

12:41 say, oh, extra credit. right. Remember there is an extra

12:47 after each exam that will not open the 22nd. What is the 22nd

12:56 Tuesday next week or not? Next ? But following yeah, in two

13:00 . Because next week is what? do you have to do work during

13:04 break. No. If you have professor who's deciding you work during Spring

13:08 , Curse their name. Yeah, you get voodoo dolls. Yeah,

13:13 break is Spring break right? Don't let them do stuff like that.

13:16 anyway, so I did that on . I will come back and remind

13:20 next week about that second extra What's the purpose of that extra credit

13:27 ? Its assess. It's not about points. Never about the points.

13:30 always about the self assessing where am what did I do? Right.

13:33 did I We're going to do I will open up the exam Probably

13:37 Friday. But if I forget I open it up before the extra credit

13:40 then you'll have about seven or eight , maybe 10 days. I can't

13:44 . I think it's 10 days to that extra credit to assess what you're

13:48 and how you're doing it. And after spring break, if you want

13:52 come and see me, that's All right. I'm not trying to

13:56 you guys from getting into my Come and see me. Just

14:00 You know, if you can't come my office, that was email and

14:02 will try to find a time where can meet. So are there questions

14:07 about the exam? Of course Oh, here's one. Yes.

14:15 you? Yeah, yeah, Yeah. So if you look at

14:18 question, you're like, wait a . You said I didn't have to

14:21 this or if you said, this makes no sense. Or there's

14:25 your writing sucks or whatever it You can come and talk to me

14:28 if I agree with you, And most of the time I do

14:32 , it's like, oh yeah, right. That's, that was an

14:34 question. I will change the I'll give everyone the point that had

14:37 question right now. If it's a where it's like, you come and

14:42 , I don't like this question. like, Um, you're the only

14:45 that missed this. And I think misunderstanding the question that I'm not going

14:49 give you the points back. But of the time you know you're you're

14:54 my quality control. Right? I I have for each of these examples

14:58 400 and 600 questions what is the I'm gonna screw something up? You

15:03 go ahead and nod and say pretty right? I mean if I get

15:07 questions wrong you know and you happen be the person who gets all four

15:11 those questions you're gonna be really angry me and I think it's okay that

15:15 can come and point out and say you screwed that up. Okay so

15:19 do. So I know that. mean I got a couple of emails

15:21 students was like wait a second on exam. I had this question.

15:25 answer choice was a then C. C. Then d. Then e

15:29 say what the hell? And it's we'll give you the right credit.

15:32 just need to fix it. So if you got the right if

15:36 got the right answer you don't have worry about that type of stuff.

15:39 the way the program works software works doesn't sit there and go oh there's

15:44 CS so if you pick the wrong you're going to get the wrong

15:47 It gives you the right credit for right answer. But anyway that's a

15:51 question. So again you should always willing to challenge a professor about a

15:59 if you know your answers right? that's okay. All right. I

16:04 lunch with a friend of mine yesterday's and we were laughing about pharmacy school

16:08 him. He said yeah there was a time where I had a test

16:12 where the the score that I got pharmacy school is the score I ended

16:17 with at the end of the at end of the semester. Because there

16:20 always he had said particularly as a who couldn't write a straight question to

16:25 his life. So all their questions yeah we're getting two points for that

16:28 . Yeah we're getting two points for one. So yes and you're gonna

16:31 to speak loudly because you're like way the back well. So so what

16:42 have here we have two extra credit right? For each test there's two

16:46 , there's one extra credit before one credit after the pre exam basically says

16:51 did you study? And are you ? Right. Is that how the

16:54 kind of do it? And it's what do you think you're gonna

16:57 Well Right and the answer should be yes or you're like, oh I've

17:00 studied this or whatever right? And , I don't care what your answers

17:04 . As long as you. I if you go through and go I'm

17:06 gonna just get my answer. You're your points one way or the

17:08 but the purpose of the extra credit not the point. The purpose of

17:11 extra credit is to self assess. second extra credit opens up after the

17:16 . Usually a couple of days Because I want to make sure everyone

17:19 an opportunity to take the exam. I can then open up the exam

17:22 that you guys can you then you at them and then what you're gonna

17:25 is when you look at your you have to say, okay.

17:27 thought I was gonna do like but I did like this. What

17:32 ? All right. Study this? , what were the questions that I

17:36 ? I missed questions. I didn't the answers to. Did I miss

17:39 that I got tricked on? You , whatever, whatever it is.

17:43 , there's just a series of questions . That self assessment to ask the

17:47 . How did you study? And you get the results that you expected

17:51 you did? What changes are you to make? So that you can

17:54 better on the next exam. That's it does. And that's what you

17:58 be doing naturally of every exam. shouldn't look at a score and go

18:02 and I took that exam and then to the next one. You should

18:05 ask the question, Why did I the score that I did? If

18:08 not the grade that you expected. ? Like post examine? Mm hmm

18:19 . I can try. Alright, part of this is all right.

18:22 so again, I can do But if I hold your hand for

18:27 , when do you learn how to care of yourself? Right. So

18:30 not saying no, but Don't count it. Right? So that's why

18:38 why I told you today that I this doesn't open until the 22nd.

18:42 so that means I have to keep track and then probably write myself a

18:45 in my office and oh yeah, the way, remind them. And

18:49 I can do that by email which just fine. I know you love

18:52 my emails right. One more thing the span box. Yeah.

18:58 Yeah. But yes, I can can certainly do that. I've got

19:01 other class. I have the same of thing. There's something that they

19:03 to do after the exam. And like after an exam they brain dump

19:07 just uh and they freak some of forget to do that. So

19:12 I will try. I can't I will I will try.

19:17 Any other questions. All right. , I have no idea.

19:28 I think it's april something. we had our first exam in March

19:33 two exam. In March third exam be six lectures away. So you

19:39 say this thursday when I come back and then it'll be a Tuesday?

19:44 seventh. Okay. There you April seven. And then the third

19:48 is May 10. Okay. And basically every six lectures, Yes,

19:56 . So, I know like mm . Experience. Mhm. It's like

20:15 false right like that you understand. , Okay. And I agree with

20:24 . All right. And so this this is one of the false promises

20:29 these types of of of generic or works, right? So when I

20:35 you how to study, what's the way to study? Is it to

20:38 and do the redo the top hats redo the achieves I told you

20:43 don't do that. Did I say and listen to my lectures all over

20:46 . Please don't do that. All . If you miss something in a

20:50 then go and listen to the 10 that you missed if you fell

20:53 Because let's face it, we're going fall asleep. All right. Go

20:57 and listen to that. But the to study is to self test

21:01 Right? And what are you gonna testing on? The stuff that I

21:03 about? The stuff that I talked in the lecture is what's gonna be

21:07 the exam. Right? I don't you to memorize the textbook.

21:12 That's gonna be useless to you. trying to pull out what's important like

21:16 today's lecture is about how does the work? Alright. And if you

21:19 read that chapter which you all did ? Of course you did. Just

21:23 your head say sure. I read all. Every word. Some of

21:27 going, you know, right. not gonna ask everything in there.

21:32 , so the purpose of those assignments to say all right, you've picked

21:36 information. So let's practice it a bit. And yeah, it might

21:40 a little bit general. It might even more specific or stuff we didn't

21:44 . You know, I don't write questions, you know? But it's

21:47 another tool. Another publisher approached me with a software that they have and

21:52 looked and said this is great I'd love to apply this to my

21:56 and give them another three hours worth work, right? But the thing

22:00 is like again, it would still in the same type of category.

22:04 here's the difference. I'm just and is I'm telling you stuff that you

22:07 care less about. All right. was a time when I started teaching

22:12 and when I was in college this how it was. If you took

22:15 science class, there was no you showed up, you listened to

22:18 lecture, you sat there attentively or . Um And then you took notes

22:23 then you had two exams or three . If you were lucky you had

22:27 exams and that was your grade. was no practice. It was

22:32 I've got a story information. So fact that we have homework now is

22:35 of nice because it means, I get to do a little bit

22:37 practice, which is better in terms learning, even if it's not the

22:43 . So your so your assessment is is what I'm trying to get

22:47 But there's no way around it other let's just not do it.

22:53 Fair enough. You wanna learn about muscles, You've got some other things

22:57 want to get off your chest. good. Yeah, I'm with

23:04 Spring break is right around the You're not here. I'm not

23:08 Okay. I'm already thinking I've got who left for Disney World this

23:13 I got up at four a.m. I'm like Spring break has started. But

23:21 have one lecture and I got to a test in a couple hours.

23:25 right. And what we're going to about is we're going to talk about

23:29 . Alright. So like I this is difficult because we're going to

23:32 about muscles today, then we're gonna a week off if it's not hard

23:36 just taking a weekend and going five without learning. You know, going

23:39 full what is that? That's almost days. 12 days until our next

23:46 . You're going to forget a lot this stuff. All right. And

23:49 today is it's about the question is does a muscle actually contracts everyone I

23:54 you to flex, right, that went through a contraction, right.

24:02 the truth is, is that that And there's lots of them,

24:06 that are going to be in but primarily the bicep when you're flexing

24:09 that. Alright, what we're talking here is a large macro structure.

24:14 gonna dive down deep into the individual and we're gonna be asking the question

24:19 the context of that macro structure that muscle. We're gonna ask the

24:24 what's going on in one of those that make up that whole big

24:29 All right. Now, generally when we talk about skeletal muscles,

24:33 want to ask what is its This is the physiological aspect of

24:36 All right. It's basically to produce . Alright, When we talk movement

24:41 , we're talking about locomotion. So that's that's the primary thing.

24:44 that's an easy thing to remember when dealing with skeletal muscle, which is

24:47 we're talking about. We're primarily dealing that, but it does a whole

24:50 of other stuff, right? It plays a role in protection and

24:54 I mean, think about the abdominal . Your gut is being held in

24:58 by muscles and it serves as a as a protective barrier for the most

25:04 . All right. It helps you maintain posture. It helps to stabilize

25:08 joints. What we just talked about we talked about articulations. Alright.

25:12 maintaining postures, you're sitting up right . Right? If you took those

25:17 away, you basically just a pile bones lying down flat. Alright.

25:23 helped to generate heat this morning is good example of those muscles generating heat

25:28 you walked outside and you're like expecting beautiful spring day and it wasn't it

25:33 a crappy winter. Right. What you do as you got in your

25:37 , you sat there and you did , you're generating heat. All

25:41 So that heat as a result of work that the muscles do. The

25:47 are horribly inefficient at converting energy Most things are really horrible at converting

25:54 . And if you remember taking physics something similar to that when you were

25:58 high school um they talked about energy converted from one form to the other

26:05 never being lost. Do you remember ? Right? And it's like

26:08 that's the potential energy and kinetic energy think? But this is also true

26:12 it comes to just the type of . So for example when I flex

26:16 muscle, I am turning or converting which is stored energy, that potential

26:23 into kinetic energy. But some of energy is being lost in the form

26:27 that heat. All right. And that's where this is where we're talking

26:31 . There's also stand energy And although are fun things that happened as well

26:34 we don't have to worry about with body so much. All right.

26:38 it also plays a role in Alright. So the easy ones is

26:42 think about speaking when I communicate I . But if you watch me long

26:46 you'll notice that I use with my a lot when I talk.

26:50 My wife gets really nervous when I gesticulating around her, right? Because

26:54 started doing this stuff so she starts of backing away because she knows that

26:58 a chance that my hands are gonna of smack her. Right? That's

27:02 I do. Watch me when I'm here, I'm like okay. But

27:07 other thing is facial expression, That's a huge way that we

27:14 right? You see me come in and I'm doing this. You don't

27:17 to mess with the bear right You see me like this, you're

27:21 well it's gonna be easy day or , right? So you know,

27:26 then there's some locomotive stuff like typing writing and stuff. This is also

27:29 communication that we have to kind of about. But facial expressions, a

27:34 of muscles there in terms of its locomotion as well as moving um

27:41 larynx. Alright. So with that mind um for those of you who

27:48 the A. M. P. likely in the fall if not in

27:51 spring, this is where you're gonna to learn all the names of the

27:55 in our next lecture, we'll kind talk talk about how some of the

27:59 are actually named. Just kind of generic sense, but there are 600

28:03 and we're not gonna go through your and okay, here's your forearm,

28:05 your uh your upper arms on and forth. And the reason for that

28:11 , has to do with us sitting me pointing out a screen going,

28:15 this stuff. That's terrible, terrible ways to teach. So,

28:19 than teaching you poorly, I want to understand how these cells are

28:24 And then when it comes time to , you can do that in the

28:27 environment. Now, I just mentioned software, one of the things that

28:31 software is is basically it would allow to do that and I don't want

28:34 do that to this class, you ? So not that you guys would

28:38 to do it if I got the to be like the next class,

28:41 would be really upset with me. right, but just keep in mind

28:46 muscles in the body, You And when you take an anatomy class

28:50 this level in the lab, you're going to be learning about 200 of

28:54 . And they're not so terrible. basically are named on shape, you

28:58 , or what they're pulling on and direction they're pulling. So it's not

29:02 terrible. So what we wanna do we want to kind of first dive

29:06 and think about what a muscle Alright. And again, when I

29:10 you to flex what you did was flex your biceps, you relax your

29:14 and what that muscle that name muscle is basically a large structure wrapped in

29:21 tissue. And if you cut that and look at the cross section,

29:25 you're going to see is you're gonna bundles of cells that have been wrapped

29:29 connective tissue, working down all the to the individual cell level, which

29:33 also wrapped in connective tissue. the purpose of wrapping something in connective

29:38 is to separate it so that it independently of the others. Or so

29:45 you can isolate something. All And that's what each of these

29:50 So, here you can see we the different little levels of of of

29:54 tissue. Alright? So the connective holds it all together. But it

29:58 creates these these compartments. And so outer layer is called the outer connective

30:04 , diplomacy. Um All right. next layer down of connective tissue which

30:10 basically a series of muscle fibers. muscle fiber being a muscle cell basically

30:16 a bundle being held together that's called paramecium. And then you have your

30:21 cell, the individual cell is wrapped connective tissue and what that does.

30:26 isolates each individual cell so that when stimulating with an electrical impulse, in

30:31 words, when an action potential comes and stimulates it. It's only stimulating

30:35 one cell. It's not stimulating the cells. It's kind of like the

30:38 way that you would insulate wires, ? If you have a bunch of

30:42 wires, you don't want them touching other because the current can jump between

30:45 copper wires. So what you do you take each one and you wrap

30:48 in some sort of insulation. And you have a whole bunch of copper

30:51 touching each other because they're not actually each other. And that's just what

30:55 connective tissues and this is called the . Alright. And the intimacy um

31:00 to be distinct from the plasma membrane that cell, which is the circle

31:07 . All right. So, you think of here's my cell,

31:12 That boundary of the cells, the kolyma, the plasma membrane, and

31:15 outside that there's a little tiny And then outside that that would be

31:20 the museum would be. Okay They'll miss him. Get a bunch

31:24 those, wrap them together. That's . Get a whole bunch of those

31:28 and then wrap those together. And where you get that name muscle.

31:32 that wrapping around it. Is that museum. Now each of these layers

31:38 traveling the entire length of the When we think of cells, we

31:42 of those little tiny things that you under a microscope. But when you're

31:45 about muscles, muscle cells are the of the entire muscle. So,

31:51 about your bicep. Alright, once , your biceps starts up here is

31:56 to the bone by a tendon and it stretches along the length and is

32:02 down here. So, when I , I can pull on that muscle

32:05 that bone. So the cells that up the bicep are the exact same

32:12 with the exception of the connective tissue the end. All right. And

32:16 that connective tissue, that tendon is extension of the diplomacy. Um The

32:22 of the paramecium, the extension of endometrium all coming together to create that

32:28 to which the bone or to which bustle is attached to the bone.

32:33 , when I contract, what I'm is I'm pulling on the tendon,

32:37 is then pulling on the bone. does not pull directly on bone.

32:41 sorry, muscle didn't directly on It pulls on the tendon which pulls

32:47 the butt. All right. with that in mind, let's look

32:56 this thing right here. The muscle , that's where we're gonna spend our

33:01 . We're not spending our time out . It's right down in here.

33:05 , we're gonna come back and deal this stuff later, in a kind

33:08 a broader sense. But the focus this lecture is going to be on

33:11 cell. Alright, muscle fiber So, what we've done is we've

33:18 through it. All right. this represents that mile fiber. All

33:23 now. Just like in the like talked about when we're talking about neurons

33:28 they were first discovering these things, scientists that we're looking at these things

33:32 naming things without understanding that the plasma of a skeletal muscle is similar to

33:38 plasma membrane of an act of a , which is similar to the plasma

33:42 of every other cell in your There's distinct things in each of them

33:46 it's all the same material. But gave them special names. So for

33:50 , we have sarko lemma, which the plasma membrane. So you just

33:53 remember when I see lemma, I'm plasma membrane. Alright, we have

33:59 sarko plasm which is basically the same for cytoplasm. Right? It's just

34:04 to a muscle cell. Now, a whole bunch of interesting things in

34:09 cytoplasm or the sarka plasma of a cell. First off we have glycol

34:15 a glycol as um simply is glycogen as Granules inside the muscle cells.

34:21 for those of you took biology you know what glycogen is, What

34:24 glycogen polish sack, ride a chain what glucose. All right now we

34:33 done that the basically the respiratory chain the metabolic chain to produce a teepee

34:40 this class. I don't think it's to try to make you guys memorize

34:44 bunch of stuff you don't need to but glucose is a sugar which wind

34:49 down releases energy and then that energy stored up in the form of a

34:55 . So if your muscles use would it be a smart thing to

35:01 up energy inside your muscle cells? . And there you got it.

35:06 why we have it there. so glycogen is a way to have

35:10 stored up inside a cell. The thing we have, we have

35:16 Now, we haven't talked in this about blood cells. Red blood cells

35:20 hemoglobin, hemoglobin is what binds up allows you to move oxygen around your

35:25 to where it's needed. These muscle are going to need oxygen to convert

35:31 glucose into energy. So what's a idea? Do you want to wait

35:35 your lungs to deliver oxygen or do think it would be a good idea

35:38 store some up for a rainy Store it up. Right, So

35:43 cells have this molecule that's similar to called myoglobin on which you store up

35:49 . So what that means is that muscles can begin to contract before the

35:55 sends its stuff. Right? That's idea here because I'm not dependent upon

36:01 systems to deliver things to me to me started already have what I need

36:05 get started. I'm going to be upon youtube. Send me stuff

36:10 But I'll let you catch up. I get started we have lots of

36:17 . We talked about mitochondria. The of mitochondria is to serve as the

36:21 of a cell. Right? It the A. T. P.

36:25 if I have the glucose in I have the oxygen in place and

36:28 have the the organelles in place, have a way to make the

36:33 T. P. That the cell gonna need. In fact the more

36:36 you see in a cell, the active that cell is metabolically active.

36:41 producing more a teepee. And so shouldn't be surprising that a muscle cell

36:47 has to undergo contractions and produce a of http to do so would have

36:52 of mitochondria. Now the weird thing that it's multi nuclear ated Alright,

36:57 cell has its own nucleus, wait second. Multi nuclear. What does

37:01 mean? Well during development, muscle start off like every other cell in

37:06 body. Itsy bitsy teeny tiny small . What happens is is that the

37:11 blast cells come together and they fuse they create these long slender cylindrical cells

37:18 you're now familiar with as a muscle . And so really when you look

37:22 one of these cells, one of things that we've been talking about that

37:25 the length of the actual muscle that's function of a whole bunch of cells

37:30 together and creating one large cell and nuclear. I hang around. So

37:34 why you have a whole bunch of in there. So one cell is

37:39 a whole bunch of cells that have up together and created one big giant

37:42 cell now inside the cell. And we're looking at this picture is a

37:49 bunch of unique things for the muscle . The muscle cells responsible for contraction

37:56 its size to move bones. That's function. That's the locomotion part.

38:03 you look at this picture, all little things in here are organelles inside

38:08 skeleton that allow that to happen. right. So this thing right here

38:13 smile fi brill is side of It's highly organized side of skeleton.

38:18 right. So, we're looking inside cell and we can basically see bundles

38:22 fibers moving in the same direction, around them. Are these little things

38:27 are the cartoonist here has done blue yellow. Alright. And the blue

38:31 yellow represent organelles that are wrapped around side of skeleton to provide them with

38:38 molecules they need to be able to this contraction. Collectively, these organelles

38:45 referred to as the triad. there's really two organelles there, one

38:50 L with two parts. Alright, the triad consists of something that's called

38:54 transverse tubules. It's usually abbreviated To bill a transverse tubules is simply

39:01 tube that passes from the outside of cell through the cell to the other

39:07 it traverses or creates a tube through . All right. And so you

39:13 see the tube here. But you look over here on this part,

39:15 the little dots. Those aren't artistic . They're trying to represent the opening

39:20 a transverse tubules on the surface and it passing through and that's what the

39:25 thing is to the other side. here it is, over there and

39:29 it comes around wraps around and then up on that side. All

39:34 now, what we're doing here is bringing the surface of the cell deep

39:39 the interior. All right. So just like you you have a hole

39:44 your body. You remember what that is, where it starts and where

39:50 it end? You know back Right. But it's a whole.

39:57 what that does is it brings the of your body deep to the interior

40:02 that you can digest food. That's . Here, we have a hole

40:07 goes deep through the cell to bring deep into the cell. All

40:12 now, what we're doing is we're that surface close and near to the

40:16 structure which is the cytoplasmic ridiculous when look at that name, it's like

40:20 you say that sounds like ectoplasmic articulate that is what it is. It's

40:24 smooth into plasma critical. Um especially to sequester way and hold onto

40:32 And this sarko plastic reticulated sits right next to the to the t to

40:37 able. so if this is the . Two beall, this is a

40:40 plasma particular and you can see all blue stuff in there represents the

40:44 R. The cytoplasm particular, The of the cytoplasmic particular, um,

40:50 that T tubules is called the terminal . E. Now in english,

40:54 that means is the end bowl. so basically you can say think,

40:59 over here next to the T to , that's where it's kind of bigger

41:03 fatter and it's able to hold stuff this is the area that's in close

41:08 with that T tubules. Now, I've said before, over and over

41:12 the class. If something is there's a reason for it. All

41:16 . And so whenever you see something or unique, you should kind of

41:19 attention and say, okay, this probably going to be important in

41:29 Now. The way to think about and what we're going to be looking

41:34 here. I'm spending the entire time about this. I could spend five

41:38 . Right? I could just show the pathway and say, here's what

41:41 . Did you guys when you were ever play a game, which I

41:45 was the coolest game ever when I five or 6. The game mouse

41:49 . I don't know who makes it Milton Bradley or somebody. Right.

41:52 , you guys familiar with that No, okay, some people

41:56 so it was the coolest game I don't think anyone actually ever played

42:00 because what it was, was a that was a rube Goldberg machine.

42:05 know what a rube Goldberg machine It's when one thing turns on something

42:09 that turns on something else, which on something else which turns on something

42:12 and it is usually a rube Goldberg like, I'm going to uh like

42:17 a quarter over here to catch an over there and there was like all

42:20 stupid steps, like paper airplanes and and candles and stuff. If you

42:25 cartoons, you've probably seen stuff like where jerry was trying to get a

42:29 of cheese and tom created this rube machine or something like that. And

42:34 where the game master actually came from probably somebody watching that cartoon city.

42:37 can make a game out of The purpose of the game was to

42:40 a mouse, but you had along way, you have to build this

42:43 Goldberg machine. I don't think, I said, I don't think anyone

42:45 played it to actually play the They just want to build a machine

42:48 you can put the marble in and it do all that stuff to go

42:51 everything. A muscle is like It's like a rube Goldberg machine.

42:57 we're doing is we're naming all the and then what we're gonna do is

43:00 gonna put all the parts together and just going to say, okay,

43:02 this happens, what are all the that lead to that final contraction?

43:07 all. This is all right. so what I'm doing is I'm just

43:10 through the parts. We've learned three so far. The next part here

43:15 the things that are gonna be doing contractions. These are the mile fiber

43:20 . Alright, so the myo fiber the sell side of skeletal elements inside

43:26 are called myo fi brill's. And if you tease and go down even

43:31 into the molecular structure, we're going refer to them as my oh

43:36 All right, So it's kind of your way down so yes,

43:48 Not yet. And the reason for is that that is not as far

43:53 it goes. All right. When first learn it. Yes. Action

43:57 Madison. But we're going to see actually much, much more important.

44:02 . Or the norman collector becomes important . Alright, so the maya

44:07 there are two parts. There's a filament in the thin filament.

44:11 And that's that's the first thing. right. So, if you think

44:14 a mile five brill, which is a bundle of these micro filaments.

44:18 of these filaments are big and thick thin. The thick filament is primarily

44:23 of maya sin. That's an easy . All right. What does my

44:27 look like? My son looks like bunch of golf clubs that have been

44:30 together. And so what you have you have this structure that is his

44:34 tail. And then you have this head which golf clubs don't have

44:39 but it looks like a golf If it's in this position. And

44:42 you're gonna do is you're gonna get whole bunch of these, thousands,

44:45 upon thousands of these and they're gonna wrapped up together so that you have

44:50 kind of structure. All right on that head, there are two

44:55 that we need to be aware There is an act in binding

44:58 So, that means some place on surface of the head, it's going

45:01 be able to interact with acting. other thing that has it has an

45:05 T. P A site. What tells you that it's an enzyme.

45:09 , you put a teepee there, gonna break 80 P. Release

45:12 The energy is going to do All right, so, one of

45:17 features of my is that it's going be able to use a TPS energy

45:22 something. And we have an acting site kind of gives you a hint

45:26 it may be involved in binding with the other molecules. The other filament

45:33 the thin filament. Now it's easy to say, oh look,

45:36 that's acting, it's not just All right, acting. Is that

45:41 . So, if you look at little picture here, that that alpha

45:45 of the golden balls there, that's acting chain. Each of those balls

45:50 an acting molecules. So there's actually lot of acting in there. But

45:55 acting, what we have is we a myosin binding site which makes

45:59 If there's a acting binding site on assassin, then on acting there should

46:03 a myosin binding sites so that they interact. The thing is is that

46:08 associated with those? There are two molecules. The first one is called

46:13 amaya season that is that little green that you see wrapped around it trump

46:19 my assassin. If you listen to word has a word we just learned

46:23 it. What word is that my ? So it's related to my

46:27 It's attracted to and binds to very that myosin binding site, it sits

46:33 the way of my assassin. It miocene from acting actually binding acting.

46:40 it's an impediment. It's in the we got to get rid of

46:44 The other molecules culture proponents Ramona proponent three parts to it and basically you

46:50 think of it as a hinge. first part is bound up to the

46:53 in the second part is bound up the pharmacy and the third part behinds

47:01 , we talked about it here, , not yet. Alright, so

47:04 I have this, if I think it like this, if I have

47:08 here and on top of that trope , that Troponin sits between those two

47:13 . I can't do them all at same time. Only two arms.

47:16 ? And so it kind of serves a hinge between the acting and the

47:21 my assassin. Now in order to a contraction, what you wanna do

47:25 you want to get my assassin to to act in and be able to

47:30 create an interaction so that you can that contraction. What's going to happen

47:35 is we're going to shrink the cell very early on when they were looking

47:42 these cells remember they didn't have electron , they didn't know what molecules are

47:46 . All they could do was look a microscope and kind of uh increase

47:51 view, right, amplify what they're at and they come across and they

47:55 see, wow these cells, they a whole bunch of lines.

47:59 we got this dark line, We a light line. We have a

48:01 line. We've got a slightly lighter , we have a dark line and

48:04 we see the reverse until we get that line again and then it repeats

48:07 over and over and over. Scientists we see patterns, we kind of

48:11 say, okay, well lets kind define what the pattern is and what

48:15 define here is something called the Saarc All right. And basically what it

48:19 is we're gonna name these lines. so the Z line represents the start

48:24 then we're gonna have this simple light than a darker band than a light

48:29 than a dark band. And then inverse the lighter band, dark

48:32 light bands line. And what we here is that unit is now what

48:37 refer to as that sarcoma here, is the functional unit of a

48:42 of a muscle cell. So, you think of a muscle, a

48:46 is made up of our muscle cell made up of multiple sarcasm ears aligned

48:52 the And what these represent. are these thicken these thin filaments?

48:58 , this is a representation of what seeing here. So, you can

49:03 here here's our Z line, there's Z line. You can see a

49:06 filament. You see a thick right? You see an attachment for

49:11 thick filament. You see the thick extending. Again. The beige represents

49:17 filament. So this is like a filament and thin filament doing this.

49:21 so the darker bands represent where there's lighter bands represents where there's no overlap

49:28 then the Z line where the defining is. That's the point of attachment

49:32 a thin filament and then that dark in the middle of everything called the

49:36 line is the attachment point for the filament. And so we just named

49:42 the dark parts are and where the parts are. And so we gave

49:44 these little initials. Right? So have this entire thing right here is

49:49 sarcoma here. From here to here we see overlap. The content filming

49:55 . That begins the A band when no overlap. Again, that's called

50:00 H zone and this half right there that half right there are referred to

50:04 the eye bands. Alright, if you want to do it this

50:09 , looking down here, here's my A Band H Band M H

50:16 Sorry H A I Z. Line lines there in the middle. Now

50:25 do need to know them. All . And what you need to know

50:29 them is that this is where these and filaments are going to be hanging

50:34 each other. Now there's other proteins there that you should be familiar

50:38 but not to the extent of like is why are these so important?

50:41 might get one question on this on exam maybe. Alright, so this

50:45 again, this is looking at So you can kind of eat

50:48 You can see the thin line. right. You can see the

50:54 You can see the triple medicine. if you look carefully there, you

50:57 probably find your opponent, you can the thick filament with a whole bunch

51:00 mice and heads wrapped each other looks a whole bunch of golf clubs that

51:04 bound together and then they're connected to in line. You can see that

51:07 thin filament is attacked the line you see over here. Same thing.

51:13 what do we got? We have molecule alpha act in in it serves

51:17 the glue that holds the thin filament the Z. Line. Alright.

51:23 have nebula. Alright basically it also to align acting now. The purpose

51:29 that is if you think about if I have this thing that's pushed

51:32 out in this direction, what I to do is I need to keep

51:35 nice and stiff and straight. I want it lagging down this way.

51:37 don't want it going up that The purposes if I can keep it

51:41 then it can interact with the other . The thick filament that's aligned with

51:47 . Now the thick filament is aligned held in place because it has an

51:53 to this molecule called hidden. Alright Tibetan is basically a spring.

52:00 If you contract a muscle, do want to keep it in contract

52:04 No you want to spring back once muscle relax, that's the purpose of

52:08 muscle or this this molecule. It's spring muscle or a spring a spring

52:14 . Alright so I can press get contraction, relax the muscle muscle springs

52:20 into position you know? But when contract it compresses down, stores up

52:25 so I can go back out. another molecule called dystrophin that sits near

52:31 surface of these bundles so that it some point of interaction. So,

52:37 , it's not just going all co record. All right, basically serves

52:41 an anchor. So, again, you think about the circle mirror the

52:46 cameras to Z lines. All So, it's a space in between

52:50 lines. The lines are a series proteins on which thin filaments are

52:55 When you look at it, you're at it like this. But if

52:57 turned it, you'd see that this worker network of proteins. You have

53:01 series of thin filaments coming out this . And then over here in the

53:07 you'll have in line that's a series proteins through which thick filaments are

53:11 If you turn it again, you proteins. So, it's just like

53:14 . So, there's a Z The in line, thick filaments are

53:17 this way. Then filaments are going way where they cross over each

53:21 That's a band when there's no on side, That's i when there's none

53:25 this side. It's a church. if you can't visualize that and have

53:30 to come up real quick. It's easy. Here's a visual representation wannabe

53:37 . Do you want to be in ? All right. All right,

53:44 line Z line over here. All . So, he represents the Z

53:51 . Right? So, there's a of proteins holding up than filaments.

53:58 ? And nice and stiff. Because we have al fact in in

54:02 here we have nebula in that's sitting between. And then over here we

54:06 a thick filament because he's that in there's a thick filament and when they

54:11 over each other over here, that's Z line. This right here represents

54:18 this right here represents a This right represents H here's em. And then

54:25 can imagine on the other side it just be the exact opposite. All

54:30 . So, when a contraction what we're going to see is that

54:35 going to be pull of the Z towards the in line and when it

54:39 , it goes back across. So, that's what we're going to

54:42 is we're going to be the seating filament, just like that. Isn't

54:46 awesome. You can do that at . Thanks guys. All right.

55:01 , we're going to put a pause that for just a second. We

55:03 to talk about structurally. What's going ? We have what is called a

55:07 unit. A motor unit represents a neuron and the muscle fibers. The

55:14 that they innovate a motor unit can one cell. Alright, so one

55:19 . one sell. It could be neuron And 100 cells. Alright.

55:24 , depending upon where you're looking, going to see different sized motor

55:28 All right. If you're doing delicate ? Give me an example of delicate

55:34 . What do you think delicate activity be picking up a pen? How

55:38 writing with a pen? That's even . Right. That little fine motor

55:43 that you're doing right? There would an example of delicate activity. When

55:47 doing delicate activity. You want to lots of motor units that you can

55:51 so that you can bring many in at the same time or you can

55:55 one doing this one doing that so and so forth. So, you

55:58 greater variability in terms of activity? , course activity would be something like

56:05 basically you want big motor units so you can create great force and that

56:09 can create great activity. Alright. there's not find a refinement to

56:15 An example of this if you are with. Um Well, again,

56:21 guys are all ipods and iphones and phones Alright. Again, with the

56:26 . You know, if you could a cheap uh speaker system, you'll

56:31 volume that goes like 123 up to . Right? But if you get

56:36 if you're an audiophile and you get one of those really fancy amplifiers,

56:40 go up 123 all the way up 100. Right? And what are

56:44 doing? They're basically taking the same and they're just chopping it into smaller

56:49 . Yes, sir. Yes. , what you're gonna see when you

56:58 the word contraction? All right. me just back up here.

57:02 when you hear the word contraction, think of these fibers drink?

57:08 Well, the cell shrinks, but five grills. And so what we're

57:12 see here in just a moment. if we're going to see what is

57:16 the sliding filament theory. So the themselves say the same length. But

57:20 you're pulling you're bringing the sarcoma is together. So the filament isn't shrinking

57:25 like their arms didn't shrink. They got closer together. They're sliding against

57:29 other. So. Yes, I'm trying 18. Yeah. I

57:39 don't wanna give away the story just . So, I want to answer

57:43 question. But can I hold on and if I don't answer it then

57:46 can say you suck dr wayne and back and answer my question. Is

57:50 okay? All right. So just it. There's a reason for that

57:56 you're going to see here, it's necessarily what you think in terms of

58:02 . All right. Alright. So you're thinking of a motor unit,

58:07 of it's all the fibers that are with that single neuron. Alright.

58:14 other thing I'd point out here is the fibers in a motor unit are

58:17 clustered. Right? So if all let's just pretend I have a motor

58:21 over on this side. Right, of being equally dispersed between all the

58:26 in my bicep. If I contracted muscles in that motor unit, it

58:31 actually pull wherever those muscles are So they all happen to be on

58:35 side of the larger muscle than the would contract in that direction. And

58:40 don't want to do that, you the muscles to all pull so that

58:43 distribute the force that they're actually So for a muscle five or four

58:49 unit, you might say there's a over here, sell over here,

58:52 over there so that they're equally pulling ECU addition from each other to create

58:57 force that they're trying to generate. kind of makes sense, sort of

59:02 right now, a contraction in the , it's called a twitch.

59:09 When you think of a contraction, think of this, That is not

59:13 twitch. That's an actual muscle That is a combination of a bunch

59:18 twitches that you can't visually see. , a twitch is not what your

59:24 does when you tell them bad right, That's a twitch. But

59:29 what we're talking about. A twitch what we refer to as a contraction

59:33 the circle here and there are thousands thousands of sarcoma areas. So,

59:37 difficult to actually see an individual An individual twitch. All right

59:45 ultimately to create a contraction, we're to have to start at the neuro

59:51 junction, which is just a fancy for saying where a neuron synapses with

59:55 muscle fiber we learned about the synapse the last unit and the reason you

60:01 now see it's like oh now it sense why you brought that stuff up

60:04 because we're talking about it here and going to talk about it again when

60:08 go into the nervous system. So we have is we have the

60:12 this is the synaptic knob, the underneath on the muscle cell. The

60:17 cell is referred to as the motor plate. Okay, it's just a

60:22 word for saying the area underneath the knob. Alright, and then we

60:26 the synaptic clap. Now the neurotransmitter gonna be released here is always

60:31 always, always, always a set Colin. Okay, do you remember

60:36 we said neurotransmitters? This is the , this is what we have to

60:40 . And the reason we have to because this is where we first discovered

60:43 in voila center calling. Alright, the receptors here are so acetylcholine receptors

60:50 acetylcholine binds that it opens up an gate which is a sodium channel which

60:55 sodium to come in inside the synaptic , that's where we have a seat

61:03 colonist arrays. And that's the one where we said we have the enzyme

61:07 basically plays the worst game of red ever. So I see the coin

61:11 released, the administration's sitting there trying chew things up as fast as being

61:15 . That acetylcholine that gets across binds a receptor will open up a

61:21 Now, what will happen is is we're producing in that muscle cell and

61:26 potential. So to distinguish this we have an action potential in the

61:30 that causes calcium to go into the synaptic knob which causes the release of

61:37 . Acetylcholine then travel across that synaptic , binds to its receptor, opens

61:43 the channel, allows sodium to come . And what we're gonna do is

61:47 going to produce an action potential in muscle fiber. So, it's noticed

61:52 two different cells to different action There's something going on in between

61:59 That action potential serves as a signal cause the contraction. So the action

62:06 , the signal that's going to travel the length of the cell that's going

62:09 cause that muscle cell to undergo its . All right. So, it's

62:14 the same thing and you can even here. So, here's the action

62:18 . It precedes the actual potential in motor neuron precedes the actual potential which

62:26 the contraction. Alright, so one a signal for the other which is

62:31 signal for the third. The contraction the response to the signal. All

62:38 , now that twitch like I doesn't do much, you have to

62:42 them up together to get them to do stuff. So, when you're

62:46 about this, I've just done thousands thousands of twitches in order to get

62:51 muscle to contract. All right. , they are additive our action potentials

62:58 . What did we learn? Action you say? Yes, you say

63:02 . Who wants to vote? Exponential, additive, actual potential.

63:08 additive. Sorry, man. And . They're not remember. That was

63:13 of their features. Is that they as a signal and they code themselves

63:17 their frequencies. All right. But can add the contractions together.

63:24 if I get a whole bunch of potentials, I can get a whole

63:27 of twitches, get them close enough . Then what do I get a

63:32 contraction? And that's what we're seeing . This is what is way of

63:40 . So, what we're looking at not actual potential. We're looking at

63:43 . So, you can imagine if was in there stimulating each of those

63:46 represent stimulation. It's like boom, , boom, boom boom. I

63:49 add them up and if I can I keep them close enough together,

63:53 can actually create tension. All That tension that sustained contraction is called

64:02 . Tetanus is also something you get you step on a rusty nail while

64:06 in a Yeah. And then you it's a pathology. All right

64:10 there's a reason. It's called The primary ideology. The thing that

64:15 when you step on that rusty nail don't get it taken care of is

64:19 get lockjaw. What is lockjaw? sustained construction of these muscles right

64:26 Can't Donington tetanus. All right, , smooth, sustained contraction. That's

64:39 when I contract and sustain it. the force of a contraction is accomplished

64:48 recruitment. What that means is is have muscles, muscle cells that are

64:55 working to accomplish whatever the job If I want to lift this

64:59 we can say this probably doesn't weigh much. Would you agree?

65:03 And so I can put it in hand and I can use my bicep

65:07 curl this. Do you think I'm need a lot of muscles to curl

65:10 , lightweight? No, the muscle I don't need a lot of

65:13 But what about this? Using the muscle? Would this way a little

65:17 more? Right, So, I have to recruit more muscle cells in

65:22 to produce the force to overcome the of the cup and I can keep

65:27 that. This is where it gets because I've got tendonitis. So,

65:33 see if I can still do All right, Alright, I can

65:39 this as well. All I did recruited more muscle cells. Could I

65:44 it with that table over there? , not me. But Right.

65:49 mean, if it's weight wise, could probably do, but just by

65:53 , it's probably not functional. But it's just the same muscles.

65:57 I'm doing is recruiting more and more more motor units in order to get

66:00 same muscle to contract to overcome the and greater load. You don't use

66:06 of your muscles that it took. example, lift that or to lift

66:11 to live this. So the muscle in that muscle are being recruited to

66:16 the job that's needed to be Okay. As we said, muscles

66:25 a motor unit on our cluster. that what that's gonna do is going

66:27 make sure that the muscles functionally doing as I'm doing work those muscles are

66:33 to get fatigued. So, presuming I have a smaller load, what

66:39 can do is I can rotate through motor units to sustain a contraction.

66:45 , for example, if I'm to here and hold this out like

66:49 you can imagine the muscles that are to maintain my arm out in this

66:53 can get we'll get tired. But what will happen is like, All

66:57 , well, I'm gonna bring in different motor unit that's not fatigued to

67:02 this position. But if I want do it with this chair, I'm

67:12 more muscle fibers. Right? So getting tired and then there's nothing to

67:18 them. So my arm is going get tired and that's fatigue,

67:24 Basically, I can't sustain the contraction there's no motor units to recruit.

67:30 right, the way your body It starts recruiting the fatigue resistant muscles

67:36 because it has no idea what type job that muscle is being asked to

67:42 . So you first start going through muscle fatigue resistant muscles and then eventually

67:47 happens is like, alright, we finally recruit the ones that are gonna

67:52 fast and that's when it's like that little burst and then you're done.

67:56 right, So there's a process when talking about the muscle contraction, it's

68:02 recruiting motor units, bringing in as motor units as you need in order

68:06 overcome the load. That's the work it needs to do and then rotating

68:12 a series of of recruitment to ensure you can sustain the contraction. And

68:18 when fatigue sets in, then muscles stop contracting and your cheesecake and beefcake

68:27 the day basically refers to muscle Alright. Muscle tone is simply the

68:33 to maintain a continuous and passive When you look at these physiques and

68:39 see this go, oh, I that washboard, right? Or I

68:44 that bicep or whatever it is. you're really saying is I appreciate the

68:50 of that muscle which is in a contraction. It's passive when you work

68:55 , that's what happens, the muscle to contract on its own and maintain

69:00 without any excessive work. Now this is important for a whole bunch of

69:06 . It's not just good to look , basically, it's good to look

69:08 because we've been trained over history over evolution to look for healthy people,

69:14 people have healthy muscle tone. But the purpose of that really is

69:20 , balance and preventing injury. If have tone, you're less likely to

69:25 injured when you hard work. All . So someone like me gets tendonitis

69:33 I'm not in good shape relative to . All right, now, the

69:42 thing that tone is gonna be determined the structure of the muscle. When

69:46 look at the shape of a that that shape gives rise to that

69:50 unique look now, you're active and muscle tone. So, if you've

69:57 worked out and you go and work and you come back home and you're

69:59 to take your shower and you look there and you're like dang, I

70:01 pretty good. That's because you just out that muscle and it basically is

70:08 in that sustained contraction state. All , So that means you have a

70:13 number of other units at rest. muscle has an ideal length. If

70:21 stretch it too much basically what you've . And if you can imagine what

70:25 thinking, you're thin filaments. If stretch too much, you have less

70:30 trying to pull two things that don't a lot of overlap, it's very

70:33 to do. You gotta reset the in order for you to get the

70:36 If you jam things together, can contract any further than that? Can

70:39 push my fingers closer together? So if if I've over contracted,

70:44 less contraction that can be done. there's this ideal length for everything and

70:49 referred to as the length tension Alright, So basically there's the resting

70:55 . Anything within 80 to 20 120% that is good. And everything outside

70:59 that is overstretching or over contraction. so you don't do what you need

71:05 do. So, we have like minutes and I'm getting back to where

71:11 started. Okay. I spent a of time talking about the tests and

71:16 and that's okay. All right. I want to do now is I

71:20 to take those parts. Remember the parts we had the triad.

71:25 And we talked about the mile filaments their parts. And what we're gonna

71:29 , we're gonna put them together and going to say, how do we

71:31 this contraction? How does this All right. And it's actually pretty

71:40 . All right. There are basically steps. There's gonna be stuff that's

71:43 up here at the neuro muscular There's gonna be stuff happening at the

71:47 . And then there's gonna be stuff at the maya filament. So,

71:51 are the three basic areas where we're be looking. So let's start in

71:54 first area. All right. They're at the neuro muscular junction? The

72:00 right here after potentials travels down causes opening of calcium channels. Calcium gets

72:07 the synaptic knob that causes the the containing acetylcholine to move to the end

72:14 the synaptic knob to release the acetylcholine the synaptic cleft which binds to the

72:20 on that uh neuro muscular junction at motor inn plate. There are enough

72:29 that an action potential here results directly an action potential there. Alright,

72:34 are no greater potentials and muscles, get action potentials. It's a 1-1

72:39 . And so that action potential is to be produced and then it's going

72:42 just travel along the surface of the . The T tubules is the surface

72:47 the cell. So not only is acts potential traveling on this way,

72:51 also going to travel down the Okay. And inside those tubes,

72:57 we're going to see is we're going see special receptors. Alright, they're

73:02 D. H. P receptors. there voltage gated. So they're responding

73:07 the action potential. And what they're is they open up and allow calcium

73:12 come into the cell. All They're associated with a channel that's attached

73:19 that terminal cistern E. These are riot dine receptors. So the

73:23 Y. R. Is what that right in receptor. So you have

73:27 receptor that's associated with another receptor. open this one the D.

73:32 P. It causes a change in membrane potential and causes the opening of

73:38 channel and then calcium that is sitting that's terminal sister anne begins rushing out

73:44 the cell or rushing out of the in particular into the cytoplasm of the

73:49 . That's step one. All What we're doing is we're using an

73:53 potential to cause calcium to flood into cell. And where was the calcium

73:58 up psycho plasm particular um specifically in terminal cistern. All right.

74:06 the purpose of the T tube, get an actual potential down to the

74:11 cistern e purpose of the terminal cistern store up calcium. The purpose of

74:15 act potential Make those two things So the calcium goes into the side

74:21 plaza. Now, a contraction is dependent upon ATP Alright. We think

74:31 teepee energy get my contraction hp. important. We're gonna learn why in

74:36 a minute. But the reason the , the whole the important thing about

74:42 contraction is it's dependent upon the presence calcium. If you get calcium into

74:48 muscle cell, what will happen is calcium binds to that troponin molecule?

74:53 ? Remember that's the hinge. when you get calcium to bind that

74:58 causes the hinge to to to change . And what it's gonna do is

75:02 hinge pulls on the trope amaya Sin is covering up the myosin binding site

75:08 acting basically, it's sitting in the preventing miocene from interacting with acting and

75:14 pulling it out of the way now have an ability for Miocene interact with

75:18 acting. So calcium binds Troponin which on triple medicine. You no longer

75:25 anything blocking the interaction between the active the myosin molecules. All right,

75:32 what happens is Myson binds. Now can see in this there's a whole

75:35 of stuff going on here. But is really the key thing here here

75:38 is blocking calcium binds, pulls it of the way my son and now

75:43 able to bind up. So actually and interact when acting and mice and

75:50 . What's going to happen is is you have something that is kind of

75:54 a cocked position. It interacts and it touches acting, it pulls on

75:59 and moves the acting filament towards the line. All right. Now,

76:06 I pull on something and I want keep pulling if I'm using think about

76:10 rope. What do I have to If I have a rope? I

76:12 my hands on the rope. I what do I want to do if

76:15 want to keep pulling that rope towards . Uh huh. I have to

76:21 go of it, don't I? stop that? I have to pull

76:25 it and then I let go taking other hand, grab it again,

76:30 and just keep redoing it right over over. If I let go of

76:34 that has a spring attached to the it's going to go fly in the

76:39 direction. Right? So the first is I have to have alternating myson

76:43 doing that just like I was pulling over hand. Alright but I have

76:48 let go. This is where a comes in at P. Is required

76:55 necessary to allow for the miocene and acting to separate from each other.

77:02 . No A. T. You get no separation. Alright this

77:05 what is called the power stroke. if you look at this picture doesn't

77:09 where you start but we're gonna start the attached state. It's the easiest

77:12 to start says look what happens is teepee comes along and binds to the

77:17 head. Remember what we have as of the minus ahead is an 80

77:21 . Ace site. Right? In words the place where I can cleave

77:25 teepee and release its energy. So that happens when A T. P

77:29 it releases it from the active Now what will happen is is that

77:36 that will cause the tps to work release its energy and what was in

77:40 cocked position or in a in a position goes and moves into a cocked

77:46 . Alright so my interaction is when in the cock position. If I've

77:50 pulled I'm not gonna do any further . So what I've done is is

77:55 released and then reset the acting. if calcium is available, I can

78:01 go and re bind to the acting pull again. ATP comes along releases

78:06 resets. So what I'm using here I'm using a T. P.

78:11 the trigger to allow me to release so that I can pull on it

78:17 . How do I remember this? you ever heard of rigor mortis?

78:22 , you heard of rigor mortis? heard of it. You know,

78:25 mortis is get a corpse and you and play with the corpse is a

78:29 limp and easy to move. It's . Right? That's why we use

78:34 horrible acronym, we call a corpse stiff because all the muscles are in

78:40 contracted state shortly after death. Why it happen? Well, the cells

78:47 in them a certain quantity of All right. No action potentials.

78:53 caused no energy to allow calcium be of sequestered away, calcium leaks out

78:58 the cell and creates a whole series contractions. A teepee is there to

79:02 , okay, I'll keep doing Keep releasing you. So you get

79:05 whole bunch of contractions. And then next thing you know is now you

79:09 a muscle that's stuck in the contracted because once the ATP's gone, there's

79:13 to release it. So it stays . Hence the stiffness. Now,

79:17 is where I tell the story. grandfather told me. I do not

79:20 if it's true, but I have take it as face value.

79:23 Because grandpa never lie. He said he was 18 years old, during

79:28 know, a long time ago he in the mortuary and he was serving

79:32 the night watchman. I'm sure he this from like a three stooges

79:36 He said he was there and at and one of the corpses sat up

79:42 the middle of the night because of rigor mortis. Of course he said

79:45 just got out of there and never back. Mhm. All right.

79:50 that's how you can remember that Did I answer the question as a

79:58 to bring it right back into So, so so when you

80:03 when you let go, when you sending that action potential then that you

80:08 relaxation calcium gets pulled away. Trying see if that's the next step.

80:13 know we got to get out of . So calcium gets out of the

80:17 , get sequestered away. And so is there to cause the binding.

80:20 the tibetan serves as a spring to yourself to go back to the original

80:25 . Yeah. And that's what the slide is. And what we'll do

80:28 we'll come back and we'll deal Well, I really want to deal

80:33 this because it just goes together. right. So think about the position

80:38 of what we had up here. ? When a contraction occurs, you're

80:41 Z lines toward the in line. ? We saw the sliding. And

80:46 when you look at these these you can ask the question,

80:49 what do these bands represent? remember a bands represent overlap. So

80:54 a band stays the same length because filaments themselves don't shrink. What shrink

80:59 the distance between where the end of thick filament is and where the

81:03 Line is. So the eye band shorter. As I pull the Z

81:06 closer to the in line. Similar the H zone represents just where the

81:10 filament is. But as I pull Z line, that thin filament moves

81:14 the in line. So the space gets smaller. So the H band

81:19 shorter as well. All right. so when you're thinking about a

81:23 it's not the cell or it's not filaments that are getting contracted. They're

81:29 the same length. It's the cell the saarc amir's within those cells that
