What benefit is provided by a lever that operates at a mechanical advantage?
Where are the effort, fulcrum, and resistance in the act of dorsiflexion? What class of lever does the foot act as during dorsiflexion? Would you expect it to have a mechanical advantage greater or less than 1.0? Why?

- How does speed of muscle action affect the following relationships; force-velocity and force-power?arrow_forwardA) Describe the difference between strength and power during a squat. Provide a quantitative example that illustrates the difference. B) During a squat, the weight you have on your shoulders has a certain amount of gravitational potential energy. As you squat down and come to a stop at the bottom of the squat, some of that energy is lost. Where does it go?arrow_forwardName the three types of lever systems and indicate the arrangement of effort, fulcrum, and load in each. Also note the advantages of each type of lever system.arrow_forward
- What is the difference between striated myofilament contraction and smooth myofilament contraction?arrow_forwardIsometric exercise is best described as applying a force O a) with movement through a full and complete range of motion O b) while a muscle is lengthening and returning to a resting position c) without any change in length of the muscle O d) at a constant speedarrow_forwardWe move a lot and do not even realize how intricate these movements may be from gross motor to fine motor manipulations. Briefly explain the steps involved in a single muscle contraction beginning at the neuromuscular junction through one complete contraction and relaxation for the sliding filament theory. Don’t forget to include all the major proteins (actin, myosin, troponin and tropomyosin) involved as well as calcium and ATP.arrow_forward

(Neglect the weight of the forearm and hand, and neglect any action of other muscles)arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between a myofilament and a myofibril?arrow_forwardDescribe the roles of the following in muscle action:agonist, antagonist, synergist, fixator, and prime mover.arrow_forward

How much time is needed to injure or damage the muscle? Must show every mathematical process.arrow_forwardWhat is an example of multiple lever types in the body during the same movement?arrow_forward
