    Title: Muscle twitch response and recruitmentsummation and tetanus Exercise 1: The effects of nerve stimulation Objectives: 1. To explore the motor and sensory effects of electrical stimuli on a student volunteer‚ using the nerves of the forearm. 2. To examine the position where a largest muscular twich response with the lowest pulse current can be generated. This position is kept constant to determine results in exercises 2 and 3. Procedure: Refer to Human Biology Practical Manual

    Muscle fatigue is weakness or weariness resulting from exertion or prolonged stress and the failure to maintain an expected power output. (Amussen) The process by which your body produces energy is called glycolysis. During glycolysis‚ glycogen is broken to produce creatine phosphate‚ which releases energy. The energy released catalyzes a reaction to produce ATP. The ending product of glycolysis is lactic acid‚ which is created by breaking pyruvate acid down. Then lactic acid is broken down to produce

    Skeletal Muscle Physiology: Activity 3: The Effect of Stimulus Frequency on Skeletal Muscle Contraction Lab Report Pre-lab Quiz Results You scored 25% by answering 1 out of 4 questions correctly. 1. During a single twitch of a skeletal muscle Your answer : a. calcium is not released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Correct answer: b. maximal force is never achieved. 2. When a skeletal muscle is repetitively stimulated‚ twitches can overlap each other and result in a stronger muscle contraction

    MUSCLE FATIGUE HOW DO MUSCLES GET THE ENERGY TO WORK? In muscles‚ it is essential that Calcium is present‚ as this gives the muscles the ability to contract and relax. For muscles to contract energy is needed: the energy can only be provided by the breakdown of a chemical called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). As ATP is broken down‚ a phosphate molecule is broken off‚ reducing the phosphate molecules‚ from 3 to 2. This produces adenosine triphosphate. However for the muscles contraction to continue

    factors affect muscle fatigue? Introduction: In this experiment muscles will be tested with weight‚ to see if weight is truly a factor in muscle fatigue. Muscle fatigue is the muscle’s ability to contract exert its normal strength due to physical stress upon it. The structure of a muscle include a thin layer called epimysium which surrounds the entire muscle‚ deeper to the epimysium is the perimysium. This layer contains fascicles which are bundles of muscle cells. In between the muscle cells are endomysium

    Muscle Fatigue Monira Begum How muscles work and get the energy they need to work. Muscles need energy to work and move. (1) Their main source of energy is glucose. Glucose is made of a number of different types of carbohydrates (usually sugar) as well as milk and fruits. Glucose turns into other chemicals such as water and carbon dioxide which releases energy. (2)Your muscles get warm when using or burning energy. Glucose is sent to muscles through red blood cells; this is how muscles get

    Muscle fatigue occurs when a muscle has a diminished ability to continue to produce force‚ usually occurring due to extensive use of those muscles‚ such as when performing extraneous activity. On a molecular level‚ there are a number of things that happen that prevent the muscle from performing more action‚ ultimately to prevent any damage from being afflicted on the muscles cells. One particular effect that most people are likely familiar
