During the latent period of muscle contraction Ca++ is being released from the sacroplasmic reticulum and filament movement is taking up slack. This takes approx. 2 milliseconds.

What type of muscle is capable of rapid contraction and causes skeletal movement?
Skeletal or voluntary muscle is capable of rapid contraction and is responsible for skeletal movement.
What factors affect muscle contraction?
the degree of muscle stretch is affect the strength or force of skeletal muscle contraction
True or false When the contraction of a skeletal muscle is studied in the laboratory by applying an electrical charge to the muscle the contraction is called a muscle twitch.?
true
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 the structures within the muscle fiber that shorten to cause skeletal muscle fiber contraction?
Myofibrils
What happens to the strength of contraction during wave summation?
It increases about to about four times greater than a normal contraction for skeletal muscle.
What band shortens during skeletal muscle contraction?
during skeletal muscle contraction ,I band and H zone shortens. Sarcomeres
In addition to myosin what other protein is involved in skeletal muscle contraction?
Myosin acts with Actin during muscle contraction
What type of muscle is capable of rapid contraction and causes skeletal movement?
Skeletal or voluntary muscle is capable of rapid contraction and is responsible for skeletal movement.
Does stretch have any effect on skeletal muscle contraction?
yes skeletal muscle stretch by means of contraction.
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).
The first step toward generating a skeletal muscle contraction is The first step toward generating a skeletal muscle contraction is?
stimulation of the muscle by a nerve ending.
What factors affect muscle contraction?
the degree of muscle stretch is affect the strength or force of skeletal muscle contraction
During skeletal muscle contraction myosin cross bridges attach to active sites of?
During skeletal muscle contraction myosin cross bridges attach to active sites of actin filaments. Actin filaments bind ATP. Their growth is regulated by thymosin and profilin.
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
Do skeletal muscles have involuntary muscle?
The skeletal muscles do have the involuntary muscle because they help it in the contraction process.
Which part of the skeletal muscle remains fairly stationary during a contraction?
Idk thats why im here
