Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 12CYR
Mark the following statements as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement.
a. Muscle fibers generate more tension if the starting length of their sarcomeres is very short.
b. Stimulation by a motor neuron before a muscle fiber has fully relaxed results in a condition called wave summation.
c. Muscles that require a great deal of precise control will have large motor units.
d. A muscle fiber changes length during isotonic concentric and isotonic eccentric contractions.
