Expert Solution
Step 1

Contraction of muscles occurs when the sliding of the thin actin filament into the thick myosin filaments occurs at an expense of energy. If the length of the muscles changes as a result of muscle contraction, such contraction is called isotonic. In the isotonic contraction, the tension is sustained constant when there is a change in the muscle length. Concentric and eccentric contractions are the two types of isotonic contraction.
