Linked from

The 71 pages that link to Skeletal muscle, each with the reason it gives.

• BiomechanicsRelated: Its contractions generate forces that move body segments.

• Motor controlRelated: Its contractions provide the force that neural motor commands regulate.

• Prehensile tailRelated: Its contraction bends the tail and maintains a hold on a branch or object.

• WalkingRelated: Alternating muscle contractions move the legs and steady the body.

• EsophagusRelated: The upper esophagus uses skeletal muscle to continue swallowing from the throat.

• GlycogenolysisRelated: Muscle glycogenolysis supplies glucose-derived fuel for contraction.

• Cori cycleRelated: Active skeletal muscle is a major source of the lactate carried through the cycle.

• Powered flightRelated: Flight muscles power wing motion, either directly or through elastic structures.

• Somatic nervous systemRelated: It is the somatic motor system’s principal effector tissue.

• ThermogenesisRelated: Its contractions generate heat both during shivering and ordinary activity.

• Statin-associated muscle symptomsRelated: It is the tissue most directly implicated in the symptoms.

• Tendon ruptureRelated: A ruptured tendon interrupts the force generated by its attached muscle.

• Gerty CoriRelated: Muscle releases lactate during intense activity, supplying material for the Cori cycle.

• August KroghRelated: Krogh’s capillary studies focused on how this tissue adjusts blood supply during activity.

• AponeurosisRelated: Aponeuroses commonly anchor skeletal muscles or carry their force onward.

• ArthrogryposisRelated: Abnormal muscle development or function can contribute to reduced fetal movement and contractures.

• Chuck steakRelated: Chuck steak consists of shoulder muscles used repeatedly during movement.

• Glycogen storage disease type VRelated: The enzyme deficiency chiefly impairs glycogen use in this tissue.

• Glycogen storage disease type IIRelated: Glycogen-filled muscle cells weaken and lose function in Pompe disease.

• Musculoskeletal diseasesRelated: Muscle disorders impair force generation, control, or endurance.
