ability to respond to a stimulus

50
Q

what does a muscle do when stimulated?

A

contract

51
Q

what is contractibility?

muscles ability to contract and generate force when it receives adequate stimulation

52
Q

what is extensibility?

A

muscles ability to stretch and lengthen when force is applied

53
Q

what is elasticity?

A

Q

what is tension

A

force built up on a muscle

59
Q

what is tone?

A

slight tension that is present in a muscle at all times even when muscle is resting

60
Q

what is excursion?

A

distance from max lengthening to max shortening

61
Q

does excursion change on how tall u are?

A

yes

62

area within muscle belly that is irritated and relays pain

68
Q

what is active insufficiency?

A

point at which muscle cannot shorten any farther

69
Q

where does active insufficiency occur?

A

within the agonist
