What else can I help you with?
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.....
How do cross bridge power stroke bring about shortening of muscle contraction in human?
During muscle contraction, the cross-bridge power stroke occurs when myosin heads bind to actin filaments and then pivot or "power stroke," pulling the actin filaments towards the center of the sarcomere. This action causes the muscle fibers to shorten, resulting in overall muscle contraction.
What type of muscle contraction occurs when force is exerted against an immovable object?
isometric
What do you think the effect of breaking down acetylcholine is on muscle contraction?
Breaking down acetylcholine can lead to muscle relaxation because acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that stimulates muscle contraction. When acetylcholine is broken down, the signal for muscle contraction is reduced, resulting in muscle relaxation.
Why is the endothelium smooth?
Because it is an involuntaru muscle contraction
What type of contraction in which the muscle fibers do not shorten are called?
If the muscle can not shorten because the muscle is trying to move a load that is greater than the force, then the contraction is isometric.
Constant contraction of a muscle is?
constant contraction of a muscle is called the muscle tone
