dermis- produced by fibroblasts
isotonic contractions vs isometric
and give examples of each
- Isotonic contraction: muscle tension remains constant as the muscle length changes
- Used for body movements and moving objects
- Isometric contraction: muscle tension develops at constant muscle length
- Used for supporting objects in fixed positions and maintaining body posture
what does eostropia of the eye refer to
moves in a convergent or divergent direction
the inward moving of the eye
moves in a convergent direction
what does exotropia of the eye refer to
does it move in a convergent or divergent direction
outward moving of the eye
moves in a divergent direction
what does hypertropia of the eye refer to
eye moving up
what does hypotropia of the eye refer to
downward movement of the eye
what part of a bicep curl is an isotonic concentric contraction and eccentric contraction
pulling the weight towards you: muscle shortening- isotonic concentric contraction
dropping the weight back down: muscle lengthening: isometric eccentric contraction
