    Muscle Alive

    Muscle Alive is an interactive program which demonstrates how skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle contract and relax utilizing views of muscle fibers that range from the macroscopic to the microscopic level. This program was created with Macromedia Director 4.0 with input and guidance from UT physiologist Dr. Colin Budd. The program includes still images of muscle, animations of diagrams and actual muscle pictures. There is also a digital video narration in which Dr. Budd explains the content of each section. The program demonstrates the workings of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle.
