What else can I help you with?
What type of movement occurs when the hamstring muscle contracts?
Flexion
What is muscle contraction without muscle shortening is what kind of contraction?
Isometric contraction. This type of contraction occurs when the muscle generates tension without changing its length, such as when holding a weight in a fixed position.
What muscle contraction occurs in the biceps brachii during the upward phase of the bicep curl?
a concentric contraction- a concentric contraction involves the muscle length, shortening during a contraction! YA-trick-YA!
What is a sustained muscle contraction?
Occurs when acetylcholine (ACh) accumulates in the neuromuscular junction. It is called a tetanic contraction.
When a muscle contraction occurs?
your muscles moves, moving ligaments and tendons
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.
Uncontrolled muscle contractions the same as skeletal muscle contractions?
Uhh, no uncontrolled muscle contraction occurs in smooth and cardiac muscles... there are many differences between these two types of muscles; controlled and uncontrolled muscle contraction.....
What type of muscle contraction occurs when force is exerted against an immovable object?
isometric
Where does plantar flexion occur?
Plantar flexion occurs in your feet.
What kind of muscle contraction occurs in the rectums femoris during the lowering phase of a wall squat?
isometric
What provides the energy needed for muscle contraction?
Muscle contraction is powered by adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is produced by breaking down glucose through cellular respiration, a process that occurs in the mitochondria of muscle cells. ATP provides the energy necessary for myosin and actin filaments to slide past each other, resulting in muscle contraction.
How does muscle contraction occurs?
Muscle fiber generates tension through the action of actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling. While under tension, the muscle may lengthen, shorten, or remain the same. Although the term contraction implies shortening, when referring to the muscular system, it means muscle fibers generating tension with the help of motor neurons (the terms twitch tension, twitch force, and fiber contraction are also used).
