Is eccentric movement the same as eccentric contraction?
yesb it is
What is a Eccentric muscle contraction?
That is the negative portion of a movement. Lowering the weight during a bench press
What is the importance of motor unit stimulation duting an eccentric isotonic contraction?
The importance of motor unit stimulation during an eccentric isotonic contraction is to try and keep the unit as stable as possible. Otherwise, the unit may go haywire.
A contraction in which a muscle exerts force lengthens and is overcome by a resistance?
Eccentric contraction (isotonic)
Can skeletal muscle contract without shortening?
Yes. One possibility is that the load on the muscle exceeds the tension produced by the muscle so that the muscle actually lengthens during contraction (eccentric contraction).
What happens to a muscle contraction if there is an excess amount of either Ca2 plus or ATP present during the contraction?
During muscle contraction the actin heads pull the sarcomere closed
What includes both concentric and eccentric contractions?
B. Isotonic contraction
What are the types of contractions doing a situp?
A sit up is an eccentric muscle contraction.
What happens to density during thermal contraction?
It increases. The volume of a material decreases in contraction, while the mass remains the same.
Which type of contraction is most likely to cause discomfort in q5?
The eccentric muscle contraction is most likely to cause discomfort in q5.
What type of muscular contraction is leg extension?
There are 3 types of muscle contraction in the leg extention and they are Concentric, Isometric, and Eccentric contractions.
A contraction that causes a muscle to lengthen rather than shorten is called?
An eccentric contraction is one that causes a muscle to lengthen.
