Fiber Arrangment/contractions

Question 1

What kind of fiber produces a force through a greater distance and could also be called speed fiber

Answer 1

Parallel fiber

Question 2

What kind of major fiber produces the strongest contraction

Answer 2

Pennate

Question 3

The muscles ability to develop tension or internal force against resistance when stimulated

Answer 3

Contractibility

Question 4

Muscle being sensitive or or responsive to chemical, electrical or mechanical stimuli

Answer 4

Irritability

Question 5

Ability of muscle to return to original length following contraction

Answer 5

Extensibility

Question 6

Ability of muscle to return to original length following stretching

Answer 6

Elasticity

Question 7

Proximal attachment and generally the least movable part of muscle that is closest to the midline

Answer 7

Origin

Question 8

Distal attachment and considered most movable part of muscle and farthest away from midline

Answer 8

Insertion

Question 9

Muscle shortens and moves the bone against gravity

Answer 9

Concentric

Question 10

When tension in the muscle is less ten the external resistance and the muscle lengthens

Answer 10

Eccentric contraction

Question 11

Tension is developed in the muscle without any appreciable change in length

Answer 11

Isometric contraction
