What is muscle treppe?
•Increased contraction in response to multiple stimuli of same strength
What are two body processes that would change in response to an increase in muscle activity?
That would be increased respiration and increased oxidation. .
What does hypertension do to the heart?
Hypertension is a condition of increased blood pressure. This increased pressure on the heart causes eventual weakening of the heart muscle, and places the individual at greater risk of eventual heart faillure.
In response to a muscle being overstretched a muscle spindle generates a somatic spinal reflex that ultimately causes what response?
Both contaction of the agonist muscle and relaxation of the antagonist muscle
What is the relationship between amplitude of muscle response and voltage of stimulus applied?
The relationship between the amplitude of muscle response and the voltage of the stimulus is generally linear. As the voltage of the stimulus increases, the muscle response increases in amplitude up to a certain point. Beyond that point, further increases in voltage may not significantly increase the muscle response amplitude or could lead to muscle fatigue or damage.
What increases as you exercise?
Many things including the short term/acute effects of exericse and the Long term effects which are;Musculoskeletal response: increased blood supply; increase in muscle pliability; increased range of movement;muscle fibre micro tearsEnergy systems: phosphocreatine; lactic acid; aerobic; energy continuum; energy requirements of differentsport and exercise activitiesCardiovascular response: heart rate anticipatory response; activity response; increased blood pressure;vasoconstriction; vasodilationRespiratory: increase in breathing rate (neural and chemical control); increased tidal volumeCardiovascular system: cardiac hypertrophy; increase in stroke volume; increase in cardiac output, decreasein resting heart rate; capillarisation; increase in blood volume; reduction in resting blood pressure; decreasedrecovery time; increased aerobic fitnessMuscular system: hypertrophy; increase in tendon strength; increase in myoglobin stores; increased numberof mitochondria; increased storage of glycogen and fat; increased muscle strength; increased tolerance tolactic acidSkeletal system: increase in bone calcium stores; increased stretch in ligaments; increased thickness of hyalinecartilage; increased production of synovial fluidRespiratory system: increased vital capacity; increase in minute ventilation; increased strength of respiratorymuscles; increase in oxygen diffusion rateEnergy systems: increased aerobic and anaerobic enzymes; increased use of fats as an energy source(taken from a website - not my own work)
Which of these increase muscle strength?
Muscle strength is most often increased through repeated use of the muscle or exercise. Muscle strength can also be increased with a combination of exercise and diet that includes protein.
How does GAKIC affect long term muscle growth?
This is from a study posted on PubMed(NCBI): "…oral GAKIC treatment increased muscle torque and work sustained during intense acute anaerobic dynamic exercise; additionally, it increased overall muscle performance by delaying muscle fatigue during the early phases of anaerobic dynamic exercise." Basically in English, GAKIC supplements your workout by allowing you to do more reps at a higher weight. In terms of muscle response, the short term benefits are less fatigue, the long term effects however are a increase muscular growth to stress response. So, bigger/stronger muscles.
Do all types of muscle have endomysium covering individual muscle cells?
Yes. All types of muscle have endomysium covering individual muscle cells.
What is the premotor phase of reaction time?
The time it takes from recognizing a stimulus to the initiation of a muscle response (the muscle response can be recorded using an EMG).
What the reaction to a stimulus by a muscle gland?
A Response
How is the all-or-none response related to the strength of a muscle contraction?
The all-or-none response related to the strength of a muscle contraction is related to the idea that the muscle either contracts or it does not (it relaxes). There is no middle ground.
