2.1 Support and Locomotion in Humans and Animals (cont’d)
Structure of a muscle◦ Muscle fibre – single, long cylindrical cell that
contains many nuclei◦ Myofibrils – smaller units that made up muscle
fiber◦ Interaction of actin and myosin will cause
muscle contraction
![Page 18: Chapter 2 Locomotion and Support. 2.1 SUPPORT AND LOCOMOTION IN HUMANS AND ANIMALS](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102900/551b158955034607418b5516/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
2.1 Support and Locomotion in Humans and Animals (cont’d)
Locomotion of earthworm◦Earthworms have a hydrostatic skeleton (the
force of contraction is applied to a coelum(fluid filled chamber).
◦Coelom is surrounded by two antagonistic muscle circular muscles – surround the chamber longitudinal muscles – extend from one end to the other.
◦Thinner and longer: When circular muscle contract and the longitudinal muscle relax. (and vice verca)
◦The muscles contract rhythmically to produce peristaltic waves which begins at the front and move towards the end of the body.
◦Earthworm has chaetae (bristles) which anchor parts of the body to the ground so that other parts can be pulled towards it.

2.1 Support and Locomotion in Humans and Animals (cont’d)
Locomotion of grasshopper◦The flexor and extensor (antagonistic) muscles
are attached to the internal surface of the exoskeleton.
◦Flexor muscles bend a joint.◦Extensor muscles straighten it.◦The rear legs of a grasshopper are long and
muscular and is adapted for hopping.◦Sitting position: When the flexor muscle contracts,
the lower leg is pulled towards the body. The hind leg is folded in a Z shape and ready for a jump.
◦ Jump: When the extensor muscle contracts, the leg jerks backwards, propelling the grasshopper forward and upward into the air.

2.3 Support Systems in Plants (cont’d)Submerged plants
◦Hydrilla sp. ◦Have thin, narrow and flexible leaves – provide little ressistance
◦Air sacs inside the leaves and stems - keep the plant floating close to the surface to obtain maximum sunlight.
![Page 33: Chapter 2 Locomotion and Support. 2.1 SUPPORT AND LOCOMOTION IN HUMANS AND ANIMALS](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102900/551b158955034607418b5516/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
2.3 Support Systems in Plants (cont’d)
Floating plants◦Lotus plant◦Have broad leaves that are firm but
flexible enough to resist tearing by wave action.
◦Aerenchyma tissues (spongy tissues with large air spaces between the cells) in the stems and leaves provide buoyancy so that the plants can float on the surface of the water
![Page 34: Chapter 2 Locomotion and Support. 2.1 SUPPORT AND LOCOMOTION IN HUMANS AND ANIMALS](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102900/551b158955034607418b5516/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
2.3 Support Systems in Plants (cont’d)Herbaceous plant
◦Support provided by the turgidity of the parenchyma and collenchyma cells.
◦Turgor pressure of the fluid content in the central vacuole pushes the cell membrane and the cell contents against the cell wall, creating support for the stem, root and leaves.
◦The thickening of the cell walls with cellulose and pectin in collenchyma cells provide additional mechanical strength
![Page 35: Chapter 2 Locomotion and Support. 2.1 SUPPORT AND LOCOMOTION IN HUMANS AND ANIMALS](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102900/551b158955034607418b5516/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
2.3 Support Systems in Plants (cont’d)Woody plants
◦Support provided through tissue modification
◦Xylem tissues Strenghtened by lignin Lignin – tough, not elastic and nor
permeable to water
◦Parenchyma tissues Store starch, sugars and water It become turgid – give support
