What is the difference between a strong muscle contraction and a weak muscle contraction?
one would be the amount of contractile strength that results from a muscle contraction.
What is the difference between a contracted muscle and a relax muscle?
i don't no what is the answer?
Which would you see only in the relaxed electron micrographs of a relaxed skeletal and muscle fiber and a fully contracted muscle fiber?
This question is confusing. Are you asking if you see only a relaxed muscle fiber in EMs? Yes, you would only see that, not a contracted muscle fiber. The preparation could only be of a relaxed fiber.
Is the ciliary muscle relaxed during distance vision?
Yes, the ciliary muscle is relaxed for distant vision, but is contracted for close vision.
What are the events that influence the width of each sarcomere when a muscle being contracted and relaxed?
What are the events that influence the width of each of sarcomere when a muscle being contracted and relaxed
When the eye is looking at objects far in distance the lens is rounded and the ciliary muscle is contracted?
The ciliary muscle is relaxed when you look at something that is far away.
What is the opposite of the word extended?
The opposite of extended (moved out) could be retracted (moved in). The opposite of extended (relaxed, as with a muscle) is contracted.
As one muscle contracts the must relax.?
Yes. If not, the action at the joint will be incomplete and dysfunctional. As a whole, a muscle fiber is either contracted or relaxed (the all-or-none principal).
Relationship between agonist and antagonist?
We mostly talk about agonists and antagonists with regards to cellular receptors. An agonist binds to a receptor and activates it, an antagonist binds to the receptor, but DOES NOT activate it, and prevents it from being activated.
What is systole and diastole?
Systole and diastole describe the phase/state the heart is in during a heartbeat. Systole refers to the heart when contracted, and blood is pumped into the arteries. Diastole refers to the heart when it is relaxed and blood enters the upper chambers.
The suspensory ligament is what during distance vision?
During distant vision, the ciliary muscle is relaxed, the suspensory ligament is taut, the convexity of the lens is increased, and light refraction is decreased. During close vision, the ciliary muscle is contracted, the suspensory ligament is relaxed, lens convexity is increased, and light refraction is increased.
Why do muscles have to be partially contracted at all times?
The state when even relaxed muscles are almost always in a slightly contracted state is called muscle tone. It does not produce active movement, but it keeps the muscles firm and healthy and ensures that they are ready to respond to a sudden stimulus. Muscle tone also helps to stabilize joints and to maintain posture.
