Question 15

Characteristics do Type 1 slow twitch muscle fibers (7)

Answer 15

1. Higher in capillaries mitochondria and myoglobin
2. Increased oxygen delivery
3. Smaller in size
4. Produces less force
5. Slow to fatigue
6. Long-term contractions (stabilization)
7. Slow twitch, red fibers

Question 16

Characteristics of type ll fast twitch muscle fibers (7)

Answer 16

1. Lower in capillaries, mitochondria and myoglobin
2. Decreased oxygen delivery
3. Larger in size
4. Produce more force
5. Quick to fatigue
6. Short-term contraction (force and power)
7. Fast twitch, white fibers

Question 17

Muscle fiber type responsible for producing long-term contractions necessary for stabilization and postural control

Answer 17

Type l slow twitch

Question 18

Muscle fiber type responsible for producing movements requiring force and power such as a sprint

Answer 18

Type ll fast twitch

Question 19

The manner in which muscle fibers are situated in relation to the tendon

Answer 19

Muscle fiber arrangement

Question 20

Pennation

Answer 20

Muscle fibers that run at an angle to the tendon instead of in the same direction

Question 21

This type of muscle has a full belly, tapers off at either end. The fiber arrangement parallels the direction of the muscle and tendon (line of pull) and enables the force production by the fibers to pull in the same direction as the line of pull. Example, bicep brachii

Answer 21

Fusiform

Question 22

(Muscle type) Fusiform, describe the muscle fiber arrangement

Answer 22

Parallel to direction of tendon

Question 23

(Muscle type) Fan-shaped, describe the muscle fiber arrangement

Answer 23

From broad attachment to narrow, pectoralis major

Question 24

Also know as convergent or radiate, muscle fibers span out from a borrow attachment at one end to a broad attachment at the other end, creating various angles of pull, example pectoralis majore

Answer 24

Fan-shaped

Question 25

Long strap like muscles, their fibers run parallel to the line of pull. Example

Answer 25

Longitudinal

Starorius

Question 26

A four-sided muscle that is usually flat. The muscle fiber arrangement is parallel to the line of pull, example

Answer 26

Quadrilateral

Rhomboid

Question 27

This type of muscle has a short, oblique muscle fibers that extend from one side of a long tendon, the fibers run obliquely to the line of pull of the muscle tendon. Example

Answer 27

Unipenniform

Posterior tibialis

Question 28

Short oblique muscle fibers that extend from both sides of a long tendon, the pull of the muscle fibers runs oblique to the line of the pull of the tendon, example

Answer 28

Bipenniform

Rectusfemoris

Question 29

Muscles with multiple tendons with oblique running muscle fibers, pull of the muscle fibers runs obliquely to the line of pull of the tendon muscle, example

Answer 29

Multipenniform

Deltoid

Question 30

The significance of pen nation lies in its ability to do what?

Answer 30

Increase the force output of a muscle

Question 31

The force that a muscle can exert is proportional to the …
