How muscular system can grow strong?
Through use. The current thought is that using a muscle to fatigue creates little tears in the muscle fibers, that then heal over a few days, creating more muscle fibers, and more fibers means more strength.

What happens to a muscle in the body when it gets longer?
You get stronger. The individual muscle fibers become thicker with more myofibrils inside them. The number of muscle cells stays the same, contrary to popular belief that you grow more muscle fibers, this is not true.
When skeletal muscle fibers decrease in diameter it causes?
Excessive formation of scar tissue.
When a muscle is not used and it grows smaller that is called?
Disuse of a muscle causes atrophy, which is a shrinking of muscle fibers leading to weakness. With use, the atrophy can be reversed.
What is the function of the muscle fibers?
muscle fibers contract the muscles when stimulated.
Smooth muscle fibers are the shortest of all muscle cell types?
No. Cardiac muscle fibers.
What type of muscle fibers used in strength training?
imcomplitory muscle fibers
What is muscle fibers?
Your cardiac muscle is your heart and this is a muscle and it holds itself together with its fibers. Hope that answers it for you :)
Does muscle fibers brake down during exercise?
Yes. Strenuous exercise can kill the muscle fibers. Such muscle fibers are replaced by fibrous tissue.
