o muscles – facilitate movement and provide support
o the sliding filament theory of musculoskeletal function in terms of thick and thin filaments sliding over one another to bring about contraction and relaxation, and their working as antagonist pairs

• the stages of the sliding filament theory for muscle contraction:
o the role of calcium ions and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in the formation of cross bridges between actin and myosin filaments
o the role of ATP in breaking the cross bridge between the actin and myosin filaments
o the role of ATPase in restoring the myosin head to its normal position
o the repetition of this cycle leading to the shortening of the sarcomere

B2.4 The development, impact and management of muscular dystrophy disease:
• causes of the disease
• impact on systems within the body and on physical and mental health
