Question
Chapter 9.2, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The mechanism that is responsible for tension production in a muscle fiber along with the factors that determine the peak tension developed during a contraction.
Introduction: The nervous system controls the contraction of skeletal muscle fibers. The nervous system control each and every skeletal muscle fiber at a specialized site, which is called the neuromuscular junction.

(This is a 2-part work, Part 1 is done, only Part 2 is to be worked on at the bottom)Part 1 (Done): Describe the levels of structural hierarchy for the human body, starting with the organismal level and ending with the chemical level. In addition, you should make sure you link each level to the previous level, emphasizing the structural relationships.
The human body is organized into a structural hierarchy that progresses from the macroscopic organismal level down to the microscopic chemical level. Each level builds upon the previous one, creating increasingly complex structures. Below is the hierarchy, from largest to smallest, with explanations linking each level to its predecessor:
1. Organismal Level
The entire living human body.Relationship: All lower levels work together to sustain life at this highest level.
2. Organ System Level
Groups of organs working together to perform major functions.Examples: circulatory, nervous, digestive systems.Relationship: The organismal…
