Skeletal and heart muscles are also excitable, but their stimulation is intimately linked to a secondary response, that of contraction. Thus, skeletal muscle is the major executive arm of the nervous system, primarily in regard to motor activity. However, muscle is also the means of expression ...

1. Velocity is the distance an object movesper unit time. A load can be thought of as a weight that the muscle isattempting to move via an isotonic contraction, for example, when aweightlifter tries to lift a series of progressiv...

Muscle physiology studies the physical, mechanical, and biochemical aspects of muscles in development, fiber structure, muscle structure, contraction, and strength-building. The body has three types of muscle: cardiac, smooth, and skeletal. Skeletal muscle is a voluntary muscle, or a muscle that ...
