You really are a hero i am crying taking my summer class feeling like im going to fail i swear you and crash course are the only things keeping my sanity alive
very informative video, i like that you are very precise and take the time with your wording, watching your other videos has provided a great bases of this video. thank you.
Can you explain, if each sarcomeric unit shortens due to contraction, why do the Z discs not rip apart. Because adjacent sarcomeres are contracting away from these discs.
I have never thought about it in those terms, but that's a really good question... I have never seen an explanation or a model that shows how a myofibril contracts as a results of all of the sarcomeres contracting... But I'm guessing the sarcomeres pulling on the sarcomere next to them (via the z discs) causes everything to bunch in the middle... Because the sarcomeres on the very ends wouldn't have any tension on their open sides... So they would get dragged away from the open side and towards the sarcomere next to them... And so on and so forth until it all ended up in the middle. Thats my best guess!
@@AnatomyHero yes, even I haven't come across any such thorough model of the contraction of multiple sarcomeric units as one. But I guess your explanation is fairly decent to go by with. Thanks 👍
This is something you would typically be taught in a general a&p class before a nursing program...but schools and curriculums differ, some schools have nursing specific A&P and I don't know of this would or wouldnt be included.
That's a really good question. I have never seen an explanation or a model that explains how a myofibril contracts as the result of the sarcomeres contracting (which I think would address your question)... But I think that because the z discs on the very ends wouldn't have any tension on their open sides they would get dragged away from the open side and towards the sarcomere next to them... Which would eliminate the tension on the z disc next door...And so on and so forth until it all bunches up in the middle. Thats my best guess! I hope what I'm trying to say makes sense.
@@AnatomyHero can we assume that contraction happen in a particular direction, as the heavy meromysion is projected outwards at regular distance and angle from each other? which could possibly explain the net contraction?
@@daddyfrhuh from my understanding..no. The myosin is just pulling the actin towards the m line of each sarcomere and there's no directionality to it beyond that.
@@daddyfrhuh I'm not terribly certain what you mean when you say net contraction... But if you're at all thinking of action of the muscle... the body part that ultimately ends up moving just depends on what body part has less resistance.
Hello! Quick question, reading about the " All or Nothing Principle" how can that be true to state that muscle fibers (in this case the sarcomere as a whole) either contract maximally or not at all? I ask because for example, if my arm were to be at rest, and I only curl my arm about halfway, wouldn't the muscle not be at its maximal contraction and only half of what it has the potential to contract to? Or is there something I'm missing/misunderstanding? Thank you for your time! :)
Just had a thought, even though a singular motor unit cannot vary it's force based off that principle, can the CNS essentially choose to only activate certain motor units based off of necessity? Sorry, I think I may have just wasted your time and answered my own question haha.
As far as the partial contraction of an entire muscle is concerned, there are different motor units that are stimulated during a muscle contraction. All muscle fibers almost never contract all at once or else muscle contraction would be quick, uncontrolled and would lead to the full approximation of the bones forming the joint. But the nervous system never functions that way. It provides signals to a few units to contract so that the other muscle fibers remain in relative rest and then it alternates the pattern. This way, the limb wouldn't fully contract but just as much as is needed for the activity. Yes sarcomeric contraction in each myofibril would occur completely but not every muscle fiber in a muscle is contracting and so the body can regulate the power generated. Hope I made sense.
The I band is the lightest because it's just thin filaments The A band is where there are thick filaments and is therefore darker than the I band In some parts of the A band there are thick AND thin filaments, so that area is the darkest The H zone is a PART of the A band is lighter than the rest of the A band because it is ONLY thick filaments (not overlapping thick AND thin) but the H zone is still darker than the I band (it's just lighter than the other parts of the A band) Sorry if my video wasn't clear enough, hope that clears it up for you

I love how she takes her time and explain it, allowing your brain to think about it. I really understand it now.
I’ve struggled with this topic since my 1st year of Med School. This video just cleared everything up for me. Wow!!
And now in India we are learning this for clearing medical examination so we can go to medical College 😭
I agree with you mate in my pdf of the lecture I just got confused dude. however, this video fixes everything.😊
Le indian have this on tip😂
@@ordinary_boy_ having to learn this just so I can get an associate of science. i hate anatomy class
took me 3 whole years to legit understand this thanks to this video😭😭
Thank you, no one has ever made it this clear! Very helpful.
You really are a hero i am crying taking my summer class feeling like im going to fail i swear you and crash course are the only things keeping my sanity alive

Glad to hear it! I spend a lonnnnnggggg time considering my wording so it's great to know that its noticed and appreciated!
Straight to the point. 100% effective. Thank you!
I was not getting A bands whatsoever and the way you just made it so clear so easily.
Easily one of the better explanations out there
Best explanation I have seen so far. So simple and clear. Thank you!
Yes this the best explanation I have got until now
Thank yu so much. Since A'level i have been struggling with understanding this
Perfect 👍🏻 I'm libyan student it's very clear in speak it's hleped me in understand ❤❤
I had never understood this topic but I am clear now my god you explained it so clearly
This teacher made it incredibly easy thanks mam
I'm in Bio 151. I thought my head would explode during lecture. Thank you so much for this video! 🎉
What an outstanding explanation - thanks alot!
thank you so much mam, for this outstanding explanation. You'll get the reward... In sha Allah. 💝▶
I love your voice and pace!
Well this is the amazing lecture to understand the zones of muscle
Love it, very well explained 🔥💪🏽
Now this…Is the best video ever
You are indeed a hero for me
Subscribed ❤
Love you 💕
Wow thanks this seemed complicated am gonna make it easy for others too ❤
Amazing video thank you for your great teaching skills
Thank you ma'am. ❤ God bless you. 😊
truly an anatomy hero. thank you!
thank you my exam is tomorrow
how do i stretch my fiobriliars so i can iutliize my sarcomere strenghth lecture joker 2 foe de lieux even mroe?
Thanks you you made me understand this easily ❤❤❤❤❤
Super clear explanation, thank u!!
Very clear and concise in manner. Highly appreciated and immediately subscribed!
Amazing explanation, to the point thanks a lot😊
Exactly explainibg what I need! Thank youu
Really deserve the name!

Good evening. I have a question. Is this knowledge part of the nursing education program?
This is something you would typically be taught in a general a&p class before a nursing program...but schools and curriculums differ, some schools have nursing specific A&P and I don't know of this would or wouldnt be included.
I have been struggling with this, thankkkkkkkk youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
You're so welcome! Happy to help!
how can a single z line move closer to two adjacent m lines simultaneously

This was helpful
Thank you so much ❤❤
thank youu for your explanation
so helpul tnx
really useful!!!!!
wow that was great
Thank you!
Amazing
God loves you all

Koye khate nahi😊
too goooddd

ur beautiful
Why is the H zone is lighter? Even though the are Thick ? I didn’t get that even when the prof was explaining 🫣🫣 please help 🥲
The I band is the lightest because it's just thin filaments
The A band is where there are thick filaments and is therefore darker than the I band
In some parts of the A band there are thick AND thin filaments, so that area is the darkest
The H zone is a PART of the A band is lighter than the rest of the A band because it is ONLY thick filaments (not overlapping thick AND thin) but the H zone is still darker than the I band (it's just lighter than the other parts of the A band)
Sorry if my video wasn't clear enough, hope that clears it up for you
