How does fusion frequency relate to tetanus?
The fusion frequency is the minimum stimulus required to elicit tetanus in a muscle. For example, the fusion frequency can be given in terms of volts (V), or it can be given in terms of whatever units by which the applied stimuli are being measured.
What is the difference between stimulus frequency and stimulus strength?
<P> <P>The stimulus frequency is how often the stimulus is admitted. For example, every 30 seconds, every minute and 1/2, etc. <P>Stimulus strength describes the level of force used to administer the stimulus such as mild, moderate or maximum.</P>
What is a muscle producing tension that peaks and falls at intermediate stimulus rates?
incomplete tetanus
What is frequency response?
Frequency response is the measure of the frequency of the output a device gives in response to a stimulus that it receives. The frequency response is a characteristic of the device.
What is the Difference between a weak stimulus and intense stimulus?
The FREQUENCY of action potentials that are conducted into the central nervous system serves as the code for the strength of the stimulus. This frequency code is needed because the amplitude of action potentials is constatnt (all or none). Acting through changes in action potential frequency, tonic receptors thus provide information about the relative intensity of a stimulus.
Receptors provide information about the intensity of a stimulus through?
Receptors provide information about the intensity of a stimulus through the frequency of action potentials they generate. Higher intensity stimuli result in higher frequency of action potentials being sent to the brain, signaling a stronger stimulus. This frequency coding allows the brain to interpret the intensity of stimuli.
Is tetanus a bacteria?
Tetanus is an infection caused by bacteria called Clostridium tetani.
What can increase a strong stimulus?
Increasing the intensity or frequency of the stimulus can strengthen its effect. Additionally, increasing the novelty or relevance of the stimulus can also enhance its impact. Finally, pairing the stimulus with a reward or reinforcement can make it more powerful.
Why is tetanus called lockjaw?
Lockjaw is another name for tetanus. They refer to the same disease.
What is the fear of tetanus called?
Tetanophobia.
When muscle stimuli occur at such a fast rate that twitches fuse and no relaxation occurs it is called?
There are number of different types of tetanus:Complete tetanus occurs when stimuli to a muscle are repeated so rapidly that decrease of tension between stimuli cannot be detected. However, it is not usually seen except in laboratory settings or due to an infection by a microbe producing the tetanus toxin.Unfused tetanus occurs if the stimulus strength is held constant and the muscle is stimulated at an increasingly faster rate moving to a sustained but quivering contraction.Incomplete tetanus is repeated stimulation of the muscle so that the muscle is never allowed to completely relax.Fused tetanus happens when the stimulus rate is so high that no muscle relaxation takes place between stimuli. Under normal conditions, the maximum firing rate of motor neurons is less than that required for fused tetanus.Your best answer is either just plain tetanus or perhaps incomplete tetanus.
What organism tetanus?
Tetanus is called by a bacteria named Clostridium tetani. This has been called at times "lockjaw". You should always be vaccinated for this.
