is cardiac muscle voluntary or involuntary?
involuntary.
people who have a predominance of type II fibersin their leg muscles tend to be better at aerobic endurance activities than people people who have a higher % of type I fibers. True or false?
false
T or F. the difference in the size of motor units means that when a single type I alpha neuron stimulates its fibers, far more muscle fibers contract than when a single type II alpha neuron stimulates its fibers.
