Here you have a special kind of muscle called as cardiac muscles. Cardiac muscle has got fallowing properties. They are automaticity, excitability, conductivity, contractility, rhythmicity, and refractoriness. That means it contracts. It contracts rhythmically. It contracts automatically of it's own. It can be stimulated. It conducts the impulse across the length. Once it contracts, it will not contract for some time again. These properties have many implications. The different types of heart cells contract at different pace. The cells from SA node contract at the rate of about 76 per minute. That of AV node contract at the speed of about 60 per minute. The cells of atrium contract with the speed of in between the both types of cells. The cells of ventricle contract at the speed of about 36 per minute. So the final rate of contraction of the heart is decided by SA node. it is called as pace maker. The impulse has to be conducted across the heart in synchronized manner. For that the heart muscle is designed to conduct the electrical impulse. Once stimulated, the muscle fiber takes some rest. That is needed so that the muscle can function non-stop for years together. The property of excitability is needed so that the muscle can be stimulated by a stimulus.
The cardiac muscle fiber absolute refractory is a long period of time (longer then skeletal muscles), so you cannot tetanize cardiac muscle fibers because it has to relax before it is able to contract again.
As you lift weights, your muscle's fibers are being ripped apart. After that, the muscle grows in order to be "normal" again and not ripped apart, making it bigger.
No, you should rest your muscle for AT LEAST 24 hours before exercising it again.
I believe that answer is the diaphragm. As the diaphragm moves up and down, it expands the lungs, and when the diaphragm goes up, the lungs release the air out again.
If the frontal area is death, you can stimulate it but will not get any response.
When a muscle is applying a little bit of force, action potentials are triggering twitches in the muscle fibers. A skeletal muscle has many many muscle fibers, and a single fiber (cell) is either contracted or relaxed, it cannot get stronger or apply a fraction of its force. A muscle fiber and its connected neuron are called a motor unit When a muscle is applying a lot of force it is sending many action potentials at once, such that most of the fibers in a muscle are contracting at once. This effect is called motor unit recruitment When a muscle is "maxing out," it is sending waves of many action potentials in rapid succession, such that the whole muscle is stimulated again while the stimulated cells are still in the relaxing phase. This has the effect of not only reactivating the fibers in the relaxing phase, but also engaging more of the few cells that were left so that more total fibers contract. When the signals are received in rapid enough succession the total force of the muscle will eventually plateau. This is called unfused tetanus. If applied at an even greater frequency the fibers that are activated will stay activated so that no lag is seen between single fiber twitches. It is at this point that the fibers are all fused and the muscle has reached maximum tetanic tension (This can occur as an effect in patients with tetanus, hence the name)
Good to exercise daily but if you do resistence training give each muscle group 48 hours before using it again.
Contracting or contracted. Related Information: When any muscle bulges it is contracted. Muscles work by contracting , and as they contract, the y bulge . As they relax again, they elongate, causing the bulging to subside.
Her contract with TNa ran out and she did not sign with them again.
A Muscle Twitch is a single contraction of skeletal muscle. The three distinct phases are latent, contraction, and relaxation. Latent Phase: Is the interval from the stimulus application until the muscle begins to contract (shorten). Note that there is no traced activity during this phase, but there are some electrical and chemical changes taking place during this phase. Contraction Phase: This phase is when the muscle fibers shorten, the tracings will show during this phase (a) peak(s). Relaxation Phase: This phase is represented by the downward curve in your tracings, this is when the muscle is going back to its original state of relaxation and the muscle will once again lengthen
