    All skeletal muscles originate from mesoderm except for branchiomeric muscles. Involuntary muscles like the heart and lungs originate from splanchnic mesoderm. Muscles have properties of excitability, conductivity, contractility through isometric and isotonic contractions, extensibility, and elasticity. Invertebrate musculature varies between groups with mollusks having longitudinal, circular, and oblique muscle bands and echinoderms having a water vascular system surrounded by muscle layers.

    --MYOLOGY
     Embryonic origin: mesoderm
    - all voluntary or skeletal muscles are derived from the epimere of the mesoderm, except
    the branchiomeric muscle (fm. the hypomere of the mesoderm)
    - all involuntary muscles (including: heart & lungs) are derived fm. the splanchnic
    mesoderm of the hypomere

    --PROPERTIES OF MUSCLES
    1. Excitability
    - action potentials
    2. Conductivity
    3. Contractility
    - isometric contraction (the muscle remains the same length)
    - isotonic contraction (the tension in the muscle remains constant despite a change in
    muscle length)
    4. Extensibility - extent to w/c a material can be stretched w/o causing it to tear or break
    5. Elasticity – physical property of material that returns to its original shape after the stress that
    made it deform is removed.
