Question
Chapter 6, Problem 5IP
Summary Introduction
To identify: The three muscles that have pennate fiber arrangements and explain the ways in which the functions of muscles are enhanced by this arrangement.
Concept introduction: Pennate fiber arrangement is a pattern of arrangement of fibers within a muscle, wherein the short fibers are attached to one or more tendons. This pattern of muscle fiber arrangement facilitates the muscle force production.
