53
Q

Consent contraction

A

Muscle attachments from closer together muscle is shortening.
Is occurring against gravity, raising or lifting up activity
acceleration activity

54
Q

Eccentric contraction

A

Attachments move farther apart muscle is lengthening

A

When were more muscles work together to produce forces in different linear directions, yet the torques act in the same rotatory direction

60
Q

Active tension

A

Tension from an active muscle contraction

61
Q

How does active tension increase?

A

Increasing the number of motor units recruited
Recruiting motor units with the larger number of muscle fibers
Increasing cross bridge formation
Recruiting muscle with the larger cross-sectional area

62
Q

Passive tension

A

Resistance developed by the connective tissues with a muscle when that muscle is lengthened
Non-volitional

63
Q

Length tension relationship

A

There is an optimal length of a muscle or maximal tension can be developed
At mid range, there are maximum cross bridges formed, and max tension can be achieved
Tension decreases if the muscle is fully shortened or lengthened

Involves the elastic or elastic contract tile tissues
Occurs in the antagonist to the motion

66
Q

Active insufficiency

A

Diminished ability of a muscle to produce or maintain tension
Occurs in the agonist to the motion
