What is a fibril?
It's a heart whose muscle is not contracting in a normal, coordinated fashion, but instead is more or less "wiggling" in an uncoordinated way.
An inherited muscle disorder in which the muscle tissue degenerates over time resulting in complete helplessness is know as?
An inherited muscle disorder in which the muscle tissue degenerates over time resulting in complete helplessness is known as Muscular Dystrophy.
What is muscle atrophy?
Muscle atrophy refers to the wasting or loss of muscle tissue resulting from disease or lack of use.
What are the symptoms of listerial meningitis?
Symptoms of listerial meningitis occur about four days after the flu-like symptoms and include fever, personality change, uncoordinated muscle movement, tremors, muscle contractions, seizures, and slipping in and out of consciousness.

As a matter of fact it can. In the muscle fibers there is a body called the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum which releases calcium ions into your system. These cause a difference in charge resulting in chemical reactions which causes your muscles to contract.
A muscle injury resulting from overuse or overstretching?
Strains are common muscle injuries caused by overuse or overstretching.
Explain a muscle spasm in terms of recruitment of muscle fibers?
A muscle spasm is the spontaneous recruitment of muscle fibers. The resulting contraction is usually painful, but it typically resolves very quickly.
What causes muscle fatigue and how do you know if you are expreiencing muscle fatigue?

What is the consequences of the administration of a compound that inhibits acetylcholinesterases?
If the action of acetylcholinesterase is inhibited, acetylcholine is not degraded and would accumulate in the synaptic cleft and act as a constant stimulus to the muscle fiber. The muscle cells will continue to contract resulting in a condition called spastic paralysis.
The heart is called what muscle?
It is called cardiac muscle, or myocardium.
