What is the approximate amplitude in mV of the twitch in recording B? Be careful and note the position of the baseline! In which recording, A or B, is the amplitude of the muscle twitch measured correctly? In which recording, A,B, or C, is the time between the second two twitches measured correctly?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Introduction 

The amplitude is typically calculated from peak to peak. A high-frequency response is essentially what amplitude is. Tissue between the needle and muscle fibres efficiently works as a high-frequency filter. In contrast to duration, the majority of a motor unit's muscle fibres contribute little to the amplitude.
