This is a complete lesson covering sections 5.1.5 l of the OCR Biology specification-muscles. It covers the structure and function of skeletal muscle, smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. It then goes into the ultra-structure of a skeletal muscle including myofibrils, actin and myosin and how they work together to bring about muscle movement through the sliding filament model. The lesson closes by looking at the neuromuscular junction and how action potentials are passed to the muscle to cause contraction.
The lesson includes a starter, full notes, various student led activities and a differentiated summary at the end.
All answers are included.
I actively try to reduce photocopying, so all of the lesson resources are within the PowerPoint rather than as extra sheets.
