What is a concentric contraction?
concentric contraction is atype of muscle contraction which the muscle shortens while genrating aforce The muscle shortens to produce movement. A muscle contraction in which shortening occurs.
What factors affect muscle contraction?
the degree of muscle stretch is affect the strength or force of skeletal muscle contraction
What is a contraction in which the muscle shorten and work is done?
This is muscle flexion or isotonic contraction.
What 2 molecules are part of actin?
Actin and myosin are the molecules used for 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
What component is not essential for the process of muscle contraction?
Actomyosin does not seem to be essential for the process of muscle contraction. The most important elements of muscle contraction include potassium and ATP.
Hypocalcemia will cause the heart rate to?
slow down or will cause bradycardia. calcium is essential in muscle contraction.
What is muscle contraction without muscle shortening is what kind of contraction?
Isometric contraction
Constant contraction of a muscle is?
constant contraction of a muscle is called the muscle tone
What is a concentric contraction?
concentric contraction is atype of muscle contraction which the muscle shortens while genrating aforce The muscle shortens to produce movement. A muscle contraction in which shortening occurs.
What does the contraction of the gastrocnemius muscle usually result in?
type of contraction of gastrocnemius muscle?
Describe the events of muscle cell contraction?
6 steps in a muscle contraction
What is the difference between isotonic and isometric contractions?
An Isotonic muscle contraction is a muscle contraction that makes your limbs move whereas an Isometric contraction is a muscle contraction where the limbs stay static
Do muscles produce proteins?
Yes muscle and all other cells produce proteins. Muscles produced the important structural protein myosin. They are essential molecules that carry out muscle contraction.
What factors affect muscle contraction?
the degree of muscle stretch is affect the strength or force of skeletal muscle contraction
The muscle decreases in muscle length during contraction but tension is the same?
Isotonic contraction
What is a contraction in which the muscle shorten and work is done?
This is muscle flexion or isotonic contraction.
