What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between isotonic and isometric contractions?
An Isotonic muscle contraction is a muscle contraction that makes your limbs move whereas an Isometric contraction is a muscle contraction where the limbs stay static
The muscle decreases in muscle length during contraction but tension is the same?
Isotonic contraction
What type of muscle contraction is involved in warming up?
isotonic contraction!
A contraction in which the muscle shortens and work is done?
B. isotonic contraction
What are the differences between isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic exercises in terms of muscle contraction and movement?
Isometric exercises involve muscle contraction without movement, isotonic exercises involve muscle contraction with movement, and isokinetic exercises involve muscle contraction at a constant speed.
Is concentric isotonic contraction is defined as tension developing in the muscle as it shorten?
That is correct, the muscle shortens as it contracts. E.g. A bicep curl, the bicep muscle as you lift the wight up is Isotonic contraction. :)
What contraction that shortens the muscle but does not increase tension is called?
It is called concentric isotonic contraction.
A contraction in which a muscle exerts force lengthens and is overcome by a resistance?
Eccentric contraction (isotonic)
A contraction that causes a muscle to lengthen rather than shorten is called?
An eccentric contraction is one that causes a muscle to lengthen.
What is an Activity that combines muscle contraction with repeated movement?
An activity that combines muscle contraction with repeated movement is Isotonic execrise
How do isometric and isotonic muscles differ?
Isometrics can be given at different angles within a joint range whereas statics are given at beginning of range
Does muscle tension remain constant during isotonic contraction?
Yes.
