one would be the amount of contractile strength that results from a muscle contraction.
i don't no what is the answer?
This question is confusing. Are you asking if you see only a relaxed muscle fiber in EMs? Yes, you would only see that, not a contracted muscle fiber. The preparation could only be of a relaxed fiber.
Yes, during distance vision the ciliary muscle is relaxed. This allows the lens to flatten, which helps focus incoming light from distant objects onto the retina.
The ciliary muscle is relaxed when you look at something that is far away.
The opposite of extended (moved out) could be retracted (moved in). The opposite of extended (relaxed, as with a muscle) is contracted.
Yes. If not, the action at the joint will be incomplete and dysfunctional. As a whole, a muscle fiber is either contracted or relaxed (the all-or-none principal).
The state when even relaxed muscles are almost always in a slightly contracted state is called muscle tone. It does not produce active movement, but it keeps the muscles firm and healthy and ensures that they are ready to respond to a sudden stimulus. Muscle tone also helps to stabilize joints and to maintain posture.
The difference between muscle mass and muscle hypertrophy is that muscle hypertrophy is the increase in size of skeletal muscle while muscle mass is the weight of your body muscle.
That is very good question! You do not have any thing like partially contracted muscle fibres, most probably. What you have got is partially contracted muscles. The muscle is more or less contracted as per the number of muscle fibres that are contracted at any given time.
no difference
The sphincter muscle closes like a rubber band around the opening of the bladder to prevent urine from leaking out. This muscle is controlled by nerves and can be consciously relaxed or contracted to release or hold urine in the bladder.
