Different parts of your body move while you remain at the same place, in these examples. You also move from one place to another — you get up and go to your teacher or to the school compound, or go home after school. You walk, run, skip, jump and move from place to place.
Movement of our limbs, jaws, tongue, etc, require muscular movement. The contractile property of muscles are effectively used for locomotion and other movements by human beings and majority of multicellular
There are muscles that contract to cause movements according to one’s will. These are called voluntary muscles, such as, those of the limbs and the neck. The involuntary muscles, such as, those lining the food canal, move automatically without our efforts for making them move. Another kind of muscles, which are also involuntary, are the
Vedantu’s Revision Notes for Class 10 Science Chapter 6, "Control and Coordination," provides in-depth explanations of essential concepts such as the nervous system, hormones, and reflex actions, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of how organisms control and coordinate their activities.
Muscle fibres must move when a nerve impulse reaches them. Muscle cells will shorten as a result of their changing form. Special proteins in muscle cells change their form and arrangement in the cell in response to nerve electrical signals. When this happens, the muscle cells take on a new shape as a result of new protein groupings.
Specify four factors which determine the type of movement accomplished by a muscle. Define “origin” and “insertion” as these terms pertain to skeletal muscles. Describe how the locations of the origin (s) and insertion (s) of a skeletal muscle affect the movement produced when that muscle contracts.
Explore how the body controls its movements and coordinates its actions with other parts of the body and the environment by exploring notes for Class 10 chapter 7 Control and Coordination. Topics Covered in Chapter 7 Control and Coordination: Animals - Nervous System. What happens in Reflex actions. Human Brain. How are these tissues protected?
