Muscle twitch has how many phases? What are they?
Three phases:
Lag phase
Contraction
Relaxation
What is summation?
Increasing force of contraction of muscle fiber.
What is recruitment?
Increasing the number of muscle fibers contracting.
What is tetanus?
Sustained contraction that is immediately followed by another, hence the muscle does not reurn to a resting state (due to increased frequency of stimuli), the effects are added
What is fatigue?
Muscle eventually runs out of ATP, fibers cannot contract.
What is a characteristic of unfused (incomplete) tetanus?
Some relaxation occurs between contractions, the result is summation.
