Muscle contraction in response to pain

Question 11

Answer 11

A reflex reaction caused by trauma to musculoskeletal system

• clonic: involuntary contraction characterized by alternate contraction and relaxation in rapid succession
• tonic: contraction characterized by a constant contraction that lasts for a period of time

Question 12
