The tearing of a ligament, the fibrous tissue connecting bone to bone, is called a sprain.
Related Information:
A strain is an injury to a muscle or a tendon (the tendon connects muscle to bone).
They can, yes. This may be helpful:
Degrees
A sprain is generally detected by using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and is graded into four main degrees:
1. Minor tear or stretch of your ligament
2. A tear of your ligament that is often followed by pain or swelling
3. A complete rupture
4. The last degree is the most sever and actually breaks your ligament along with some of your bones and will require a surgery
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.
muscle fibers contract the muscles when stimulated.
A nerve can stimulate impulses to several muscle fibers. When muscle fibers are grouped they form a single muscle group like the biceps.
slow-twitch muscle fibers
Muscle cells are called fibers.
A muscle strain can result from overuse of a muscle and tearing of muscle fibers.
Muscles should not be overworked because that can result in tearing of the muscles and muscle strain. It can also lead to other injuries like pulled muscles and sprains.

Isotonic contractions are the type that involve muscle movement. This movement is due to a change in length as the muscle fibers shorten or lengthen.
When you exercise, you tear muscle fibers. Over time, these muscle fibers become thicker to prevent tearing. This is why your biceps bulge - it's actually just strands of muscle that have been torn through exercise and then grown back. Thicker muscles = more strength.
Your muscles hurt because you are actually tearing micro-fibers in your body. This in turn sets your body into recovery. The muscles will take nutrients from fat to create a stronger and bigger muscle.
muscle fibers contract the muscles when stimulated.
No. Cardiac muscle fibers.
imcomplitory muscle fibers
Your cardiac muscle is your heart and this is a muscle and it holds itself together with its fibers. Hope that answers it for you :)
