What happens to muscular system while swimming?
Muscles are exercised, if exercised enough, the muscles will tear, and be repaired, which is how the body becomes stronger.
Concentric contraction of the hamstrings causes which joint action?
knee flexion and hip extension.Biceps femoris also: knee external rotation and hip external rotation.Semi tendinosus and Semi membranosus also: knee internal rotation and hip internal rotation.hamstrings eccentric contraction causes knee extension and hip flexion, whilst the antagonist muscles are passive.
What effect does contraction of external intercostal muscles have on thoriac volume and how is this accomplished?
both of them
What requires acetylcholine for contraction?
Anerobic contraction of muscles.
Is a squat eccentric or concentric?
Both. Concentric: Exercise where the muscle is contracted under a load Eccentric: Exercise where the muscle is stretched under a load. So when you squat down its eccentric, when you come back up its concentric. Most exercises are both, with a few exceptions (i.e. jumping of a wall is mainly eccentric, while a punch is mainly concentric. Eccentric contraction is associated with increased muscle growth, but also DOMS (Delayed onset muscle soreness, when your muscles are very sore after a workout).
What the opposite of Contraction?
The general opposite of contraction is expansion, or possibly inflation. For muscles, the opposite of contraction is relaxation.
What is Thompson's disease?
A hereditary disease of the muscles characterized by prolonged contraction of the muscles whenever voluntary motion is attempted, contraction and relaxation being slow and the muscles stiff.
Why can humans drink upside down?
