Are the two contractile proteins in muscles myosin and actin?
Yes the contractile proteins generate force during contraction and are actin and myosin
Does Uranus continues to generate internal heat through gravitational contraction?
False
The longer a muscle is stretched prior to contraction the more tension it will be able to generate.?
True!
Two thread like proteins that slide to generate a muscle contraction?
actin and myosin
What is the role of the S-A node?
To generate the electrical impulse which triggers the onset of heart contraction
Produces quick muscle contractions to make heat?
Shivering is the rapid contraction and relaxation of muscles to generate heat.
A contraction in which a skeletal muscle does not shorten but its tension increases is called isometric?
An isometric contraction is the name given to a skeletal muscle that does not shorten, but increases tension. The muscles generate force to protect themselves.
What are piezoresistive sensing elements and what is their principle of operation?
Piezoresistive elements can be ceramic or plastic. They generate electricity when compressed.
How do muscles generate heat?
When your muscles use energy to power muscle contraction 3 quarters turns into heat.
What elements are commonly used to generate electricity from nuclear energy?
Uranium or Thorium.
What elements and isotopes generate nuclear power?
Mostly uranium-235, also plutonium
Whether a capacitor is an active or a passive element?
Passive element. An active element is an element that can generate power. Capacitors can't generate power, hence they are passive elements.
