What happens to the gastrocnemius of your leg when the shank is flexed as in walking?
When the shank is flexed during walking, the gastrocnemius muscle, which is a major calf muscle, becomes lengthened. This occurs because the gastrocnemius crosses both the knee and ankle joints; as the knee flexes, the muscle must stretch to accommodate the movement. This lengthening allows for greater range of motion and contributes to the propulsion phase of walking. Additionally, the muscle can still function to stabilize the ankle and assist in balancing during the gait cycle.
What must the muscle tissue do tto fill the chsmbers in the heart?
The muscle tissue in the heart, known as myocardium, must contract to fill the chambers with blood. When the heart muscles contract during systole, they reduce the volume of the chambers, pushing blood out into the arteries. During diastole, the muscle relaxes, allowing the chambers to expand and fill with blood from the veins. This coordinated contraction and relaxation enable efficient circulation throughout the body.
Is the bladder a voluntary muscle?
The majority of the bladder is made of detrusor muscle. This muscle is told by the nervous system to contract when it expands. This is what causes the feeling of needing to urinate. In order to urinate the involuntary muscle the internal sphincter, and the voluntary muscle the external sphincter must both be opened. The detrusor muscle moves involuntarily, so the bladder would probably considered an involuntary muscle.
