Question 27

what is an Isotonic concentric contraction?

Answer 27

this involves the muscle shortening. The origin and insertion of the muscle move closer together and the muscle becomes fatter.

Question 28

what is an Isotonic eccentric contraction?

Answer 28

this involves the muscle lengthening whilst it is under tension. The origin and the insertion move further away from each other. An eccentric contraction provides the control of a movement on the downward phase and it works to resist the force of gravity.

Question 29

this involves a muscle producing tension but staying the same length. This occurs when the body is fixed in one position.

Question 30
