defining the characteristics of muscle tissue
1. the ability to carry an eletrical charge along the cell is called **conductivity**
2. also known as responsiveness **excitability** is a charcteristic of all cells through more highly developed in muscle and nerve cells
3. muscles can pull bones closer to one another and increase the motility of some organs. this is due to the property of **contractility**
4. skeletal muscles can stretch up to 3 times their contracted length. this is called **extensibility**
5. muscles can stretch and when released returh to their original shorter length. this property is referred to as **elasticity**
43
explaining the functions of muscles
1. muscles function in **movement** of the head, neck, and limbs as well as propulsion of the contents through the digestive tract
2. muscles also function in **stability** by preventing unwanted movement as in maintiang posture
3. using **spincters** or valves muscles control the passage of contents from one body cavity or lumen to another
4. since muscle contraction requires energy to do work muscles help maintain our body **heat**
5. by absoring a large share of one's **glucose** muscles play an important role in blood-sugar control
