What else can I help you with?
A maximal sustained muscle contraction is called a?
tetanic contraction.
What is maximal speed?
Maximal strength is when your stamina improves in your muscle's.
Does muscle contraction always promote movement?
No, muscle contraction doesn't always promote movement. For example, in an isometric contraction, the muscle does not change length, so movement is not produced. Additionally, some muscles can contract to stabilize joints without producing visible movement.
What factors affect muscle contraction?
the degree of muscle stretch is affect the strength or force of skeletal muscle contraction
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.
Why is there a maximal voltage for muscles?
All of the muscles in the muscle fiber have contracted when there is a maximal voltage and there is a maximal voltage to prevent injury to our muscles. Dr. Sayed
A maximal sustained muscle contraction is called a?
tetanic contraction.
What is muscle tetanus?
is produced by Clostridium tetani bacteria. Tetanus involves generalized rigidity and painful convulsive spasms of skeletal muscles, occurring 3 to 21 days after infection. The muscle stiffness usually involves the jaw (lockjaw) and neck muscles, and then becomes generalized.
What is maximal speed?
Maximal strength is when your stamina improves in your muscle's.
Can skeletal muscle contract without shortening?
Yes. One possibility is that the load on the muscle exceeds the tension produced by the muscle so that the muscle actually lengthens during contraction (eccentric contraction).
What is the minimal level of stimulus to cause a muscle contraction?
it is known as the threshold stimulus usually seen in tonic contraction
What percent of the heat produced in the body is the result in muscle contraction?
all
What has happened in the muscle when the maximal stimulus is achieved?
Each of the individual muscle fibers in the muscle are contracted when the maximal stimulus is achieved. Dr. H.
Some muscle fibers always contracted?
Summation and/or tetanic contraction. Summation is increased muscle contraction until maximal sustained contraction is achieved. Tetanic contraction is sustained muscle contraction without relaxation. If you're inquiring for the Learning Objective Review in an anatomy and physiology course, the question refers to a condition in which some fibers are always contracted... so I'm not sure if they're looking for summation or tetanic contraction - but I think it would be tetanic contraction as summation is more the process leading up to the tetanic contraction...
Does muscle contraction always promote movement?
No, muscle contraction doesn't always promote movement. For example, in an isometric contraction, the muscle does not change length, so movement is not produced. Additionally, some muscles can contract to stabilize joints without producing visible movement.
Why is there no further increase in muscle contraction force above the maximum stimulus voltage?
all motor units are in action
What is the definition of maximal stimulus?
The maximal stimulus is the strongest stimulus that produces increased muscle contractile force.
