The active component of the force length curve in the muscle is due to:
a. Force-velocity
b. Posture related cross-bridge formation
c. Stretching of elastic structures
d. Electromyographic signals
in the force length curve of muscles
dF = k.dl
where k is the streching constant
so the active component is due to the streching of elastic structures.
so option c) is the correct answer
The active component of the force length curve in the muscle is due to: a. Force-velocity...
The process by which greater force is generated by muscle is called… a. Transverse tubules b. Sarcomere cycling c. Motor unit recruitment d. Cross bridge cycling e. Troponin-tropomyosin complexing
1.The hyperbolic force dependence of muscle shortening velocity results from the fact that: a. Muscle contraction is best described by a Hookean Spring model. b. Energy is dissipated by mechanical work and viscous drag, both of which depend on changes in sarcomere length. c. ATPase cycling is hyperbolically dependent on the local concentration of Actin. d. Ftot = funi*D*N e. Heat liberation by muscle is constant.

Sympathetic Central Autonomic Peripheral ill Question 280.5 pts The contractile speed of a muscle will also affect its ability to generate: Length Force Velocity Tension Question 290.5 pts A muscle's length will...
1) You are investigating the force generated by the sarcomeres in a myofibril of a muscle. Let's assume you have a way of quantifying the number of actin-myosin cross bridges. You notice that for all of your sarcomeres, increasing the number of actin-myosin crossbridges does not increase the force generated by the sarcomere. What is going on? A) The sarcomeres are too contracted, hence sarcomere length is a limiting factor for force generated rather than the number of cross-bridges...
