Q

Which percentage of resting length can fibres shorten?

A

50%

17
Q

What three types of muscle form determines function?

A

Length, number and arrangement of muscle fibres

18
Q

What determines cross-sectional area? (CSA)

A

Greater number of fibres = greater CSA = greater tension

19
Q

What are the three different ways muscle can contract?

A

Isometric, concentric and eccentric

20
Q

What is isometric movement?

A

Force exerted by the muscle is the same as the load, NO MOVEMENT

21
Q

What is concentric movement?

A

Shortening of muscle

22
Q

What is eccentric movement?

A

Lengthening of muscle
