Summary Introduction

To discuss:

The reasons why muscle twitches vary in strength.

Introduction:

Muscle twitches may be a contraction that happens in response to a speedy stimulant that evokes an isolated impulse in every muscle cell. Though single twitches aren't terribly helpful for generating controlled, coordinated movements required for the maintaining equilibrium, observations of twitch contractions gift valuable insights into the essential physiology.
