isotonic contraction!
type of contraction of gastrocnemius muscle?
Concentric muscle contraction will shorten a muscle and decrease the angle between two bones. This type of contraction involves the muscle generating force as it shortens to move a body part.
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.
Muscle contraction in larger organisms involves the sliding of actin and myosin filaments in muscle cells, which is triggered by the binding of calcium ions to regulatory proteins. This process leads to the overlap of filaments and shortening of the muscle, producing movement. Nerve impulses stimulate the release of calcium ions and initiate the contraction process in response to a signal from the nervous system.
Isometric Contraction :]
a concentric muscle action.
This is muscle flexion or isotonic contraction.
smooth muscle
the type that hurts and the type that doesnt hurt
Muscle tissue functions in contraction. There are three types of muscle tissue: skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle. Skeletal muscles are involved in voluntary movements, smooth muscles are found in organs and blood vessels and help with involuntary movements, and cardiac muscle is found in the heart and helps with pumping blood.
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.
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.
