The lectures and seminars explain the basic physiology and neurophysiology of motor activity. Chapters in detail: Skeletal muscle - functional morphology, mechanical properties of a skeletal muscle and its contraction, molecular mechanism of muscle contraction (excitation - concraction coupling). Smooth muscles. Skeletal muscle innervation - excitation, transmission of excitation from a motor nerve to a muscle, the roles of the spinal cord, brain stem, basal ganglia, cerebellum and cerebrum in movement control.
