What does alcohol do to muscle tissue?
damage

Name four factors that influence contractile force and two that influence velocity and duration of contraction?
The four factors that influence contractile force are the number of muscle fibers stimulated, the relative size of the fibers, the frequency of stimulation and the degree of muscle stretch. Factors that influence the velocity and duration of contraction are the muscle fiber type, load and recruitment.
What factors influence velocity and duration of muscle contraction?
Load placed on the muscle
Which muscle on the body does alcohol affect first?
The tongue.
What role does alcohol play in the reduction of testosterone levels, and how can this hormonal decrease contribute to muscle loss?
Alcohol consumption can lower testosterone levels in the body, which can contribute to muscle loss. Testosterone is a hormone that helps build and maintain muscle mass. When levels are reduced, muscle growth and maintenance can be compromised, leading to potential muscle loss.
What are the causes of alcohol-related neurologic disease?
The way in which alcohol destroys muscle tissue is still not well understood. Proposed mechanisms include muscle membrane changes affecting the transport of calcium, potassium, or other minerals; impaired muscle energy.
What causes heart fibrillation death?

Does drinking alcohol affect the results of a pulmonary function test?
Yes, alcohol consumption can potentially affect the results of a pulmonary function test as it may temporarily impact lung function. Alcohol can cause changes in breathing patterns, affect respiratory muscle strength, and impair coordination, all of which can influence test results. It is generally advised to avoid alcohol consumption before undergoing pulmonary function testing.
Can drinking alcohol stop muscle growth?
In a way yes. Alcohol is very fattening so it can cause you to gain weigh.
What can influence a persons blood alcohol concentration BAC?
Someone's blood alcohol concentration can be influenced by body size, gender, fat versus muscle content, and food in the stomach. In addition, liver function may affect blood alcohol concentration.
