  2. Sartorius muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sartorius_muscle

    The sartorius muscle can move the hip joint and the knee joint, but all of its actions are weak, making it a synergist muscle. [4] At the hip, it can flex, weakly abduct, and laterally rotate the femur. [4] At the knee, it can flex the leg; when the knee is flexed, sartorius medially rotates the leg.

  4. Sarcoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcoplasm

    Sarcoplasm is the cytoplasm of a muscle cell. It is comparable to the cytoplasm of other cells, but it contains unusually large amounts of glycogen (a polymer of glucose), myoglobin, a red-colored protein necessary for binding oxygen molecules that diffuse into muscle fibers, and mitochondria.

    After finishing his PhD, he joined the Physiology faculty of the University of Washington (Seattle), where he used his experience in intracellular recording to study the membrane potentials in many different types of cells: spinal cord (1952 REF 6 & 7), frog sartorius muscle (1953), uterine muscle cells (1956), pregnant uterine muscle (1954 REF ...

    Some studies have shown a reasonably characteristic pattern of muscle involvement on whole-body muscle MRI in LAMA2-MD patients. [19] [20] This relates to muscles or group of muscles involvement versus sparing. For example, sparing of the gracilis, sartorius muscles, [20] and the adductor longus muscle [19] [21] has been linked to LAMA2-MD.

  7. Muscular system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscular_system

    Skeletal muscle, is a type of striated muscle, composed of muscle cells, called muscle fibers, which are in turn composed of myofibrils. Myofibrils are composed of sarcomeres, the basic building blocks of striated muscle tissue. Upon stimulation by an action potential, skeletal muscles perform a coordinated contraction by shortening each sarcomere.

  8. The Clitoris And The Body - The Huffington Post

    From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.

  9. Myofibril - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofibril

    A myofibril (also known as a muscle fibril or sarcostyle) [1] is a basic rod-like organelle of a muscle cell. [2] Skeletal muscles are composed of long, tubular cells known as muscle fibers, and these cells contain many chains of myofibrils. [3] Each myofibril has a diameter of 1–2 micrometres. [3]
