Central Mindanao University Department of Biology: Muscular System

This document is a laboratory activity sheet for a muscular system lab. It contains instructions to label parts of the muscular system, fill in blanks about muscle anatomy and function, determine muscle naming conventions, match muscle names to actions, and label a micrograph of a sarcomere. The activity reinforces students' knowledge of muscle structure and function through a series of identification and matching exercises.
