If a muscle is stimulated too frequently, there are usually negative consequences. For example, the muscle might cramp, tear, or be very sore and temporarily unusable.

Is Cardiac muscle stimulation neural?

No, but skeletal muscle is.


What conclusions can you draw about the relationship between a muscle's workload and its threshold of stimulation?

As the muscle workload increase, its threshold of stimulation increases.


Why does the force of a muscle decrease over time during uninterrupted stimulation?

The muscle is said to undergo Fatigue.


After nervous stimulation of the muscle cell has ceased what happens to the calcium?

calcium is actively pumped into the extracellular fluid for storage until the next contraction


What are the differences between EMS and NMES and how do they impact muscle stimulation and rehabilitation?

EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) and NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) are both forms of electrical stimulation used in muscle rehabilitation. EMS primarily targets muscle fibers to improve strength and endurance, while NMES focuses on stimulating nerves to activate muscle contractions. EMS is often used for muscle building and recovery, while NMES is commonly used for rehabilitation and muscle re-education. Both techniques can be effective in improving muscle function and aiding in recovery, but their specific applications and impacts on muscle stimulation differ.

What type of muscle fibers you need to develop for weight lifting competition?

Mary needs to develop her fast muscle fibers. In order to do this, she will need to have frequent, brief and intensive workouts. She also needs to create muscle hypertrophy which will create an enlargement of the stimulated muscle. She can gain this by repeated and exhaustive stimulation which will create more mitochondria.


What happens to the amount of total force the muscle generates during the stimulated twitch?

The total force that a muscle generates during a stimulated twitch depends on the frequency and intensity of the stimulation. In general, as the stimulation frequency increases, the force generated by the muscle also increases up to a point, where it reaches a plateau known as tetanus. After this point, increasing the stimulation frequency further does not significantly increase the force output.


What muscle can contract without the need for the nervous stimulation?

Smooth & cardiac muscle.


What is the substance that halts stimulation of muscle tissue?

Acetylcholine


How did the frequency of stimulation affect the amount of force generated by the isolated skeletal muscle when the frequency of stimulation was increased such that the muscle twitches did not fully re?

Decreased force production
