Skeletal muscle tissue: Skeletal muscles move and support the skeleton. They make up fifty
percent of your body weight. A skeletal muscle links two bones across its connecting joint. When
these muscles contract or shorten, your bone moves. Muscles are arranged in layers over the
bones. “Those nearest to the skin are called superficial muscles. Those closest to the inside of the
body are called deep muscles.” (3) Skeletal muscles are voluntary muscles. These are muscles that
we can consciously control.
Nervous:
•Nervous Tissue: Rapid communication between the nervous system and the activities of the different parts of the body is
• possible because nervous tissue has much more developed excitability and conductivity characteristics than any other type of tissue. (2)
• “Nervous tissue is specialised to react to stimuli and to conduct impulses to various organs in the body which bring about a response to the
stimulus. “ (8)
• (6) Neurons are the basic unit of nervous tissue.
•Cardiac Muscle tissue: Cardiac Muscle tissue makes up the wall of the heart. Cardiac Muscle is considered to be striated involuntary
muscle.
•This is because the cardiac muscle has no cross striations and its contractions cannot be controlled by will and cannot be done with
conscious control.
• (2) The cardiac muscle is under the control of the autonomic nervous system. “Cardiac muscle is highly resistant to fatigue due to
the presence of a large number of mitochondria,
•myoglobin and a good blood supply allowing continuous aerobic metabolism.” (5)
