Isometric contraction occurs when a muscle contracts without causing any movement

a)

True

b)

False

11.

What Is Concentric Contraction?

a)

When a muscle moves and causes a muscle spasm.

b)

When your nerves move apart to create muscle movements, or contractions.

c)

when a muscle contracts without causing any movement

d)

when a muscle shortens as it contracts causing articular movements.

12.

What is an Ecentric Contraction?

a)

when a muscle shortens as it contracts causing articular movements.

b)

When a muscle contracts without causing any movements

c)

When a muscle gradually releases as it elongates.

d)

When a muscle contracts causing a muscle spasm.

13.

What Is an SO Fiber or (oxidative)

a)

Fibers are generated in short-term sprints or "power" activities that fatigue slowly.

b)

Quick and rapid muscle contractions that fatigue quickly

c)

Muscle fibers that cause grip strength.

14.

What Is an FG fiber (Glycolytic)

a)

Muscle movements or contractions that cause the fibers to speed up movement of the muscles.

b)

Generate short-term-sprints, or power that fatigues muscles after a long period of time.

c)

Generate energy rapidly for quick powerful contractions that fatigue the muscle quickly.

15.

The muscle ____ is attached to the immovable or stationary bone (Bicep to Humorous.

a)

Hamstring

b)

Origin

c)

Actin

d)

Type

16.

Where the bones stretch away from one another when a muscle contraction occurs.

b)

When two bones collide against one another when the body is in motion.

c)

Where the muscle moves near a movable bone.

d)

Where the muscle attaches to a movable bone.

4 lines
19.

What is the Sliding Filament theory ?

a)

When triggered by a nerve impulse, the actin filaments slide toward one another, shortening the sarcomeres causing a contraction in the muscle.

b)

When signaled by a nerve impulse, the myosin reactions slide away from one another, elongating the sarcomeres causing a contraction in the muscle.

When a muscle contraction occurs due to im likes in the brain.
