The voltage that produces maximal contraction of a muscle is called the maximal stimulus voltage. This voltage is typically higher than the threshold voltage required to elicit a muscle contraction and ensures that all muscle fibers within a motor unit are stimulated to contract simultaneously, leading to a stronger contraction.

A maximal sustained muscle contraction is called a?
tetanic contraction.
What is maximal speed?
Maximal strength is when your stamina improves in your muscle's.
Does muscle contraction always promote movement?
No, muscle contraction doesn't always promote movement. For example, in an isometric contraction, the muscle does not change length, so movement is not produced. Additionally, some muscles can contract to stabilize joints without producing visible movement.
What factors affect muscle contraction?
the degree of muscle stretch is affect the strength or force of skeletal muscle contraction
What is a concentric contraction?
concentric contraction is atype of muscle contraction which the muscle shortens while genrating aforce The muscle shortens to produce movement. A muscle contraction in which shortening occurs.
A maximal sustained muscle contraction is called a?
tetanic contraction.
Why is there a maximal voltage for muscles?
All of the muscles in the muscle fiber have contracted when there is a maximal voltage and there is a maximal voltage to prevent injury to our muscles. Dr. Sayed
What is muscle tetanus?
is produced by Clostridium tetani bacteria. Tetanus involves generalized rigidity and painful convulsive spasms of skeletal muscles, occurring 3 to 21 days after infection. The muscle stiffness usually involves the jaw (lockjaw) and neck muscles, and then becomes generalized.
Can skeletal muscle contract without shortening?
Yes. One possibility is that the load on the muscle exceeds the tension produced by the muscle so that the muscle actually lengthens during contraction (eccentric contraction).
What is maximal speed?
Maximal strength is when your stamina improves in your muscle's.
Some muscle fibers always contracted?
Muscle fibers that are always contracted are called tonic muscle fibers. These fibers are responsible for maintaining posture and providing stability to joints. Conditions like muscle spasticity and certain neurological disorders can lead to tonic muscle activity.
What is the minimal level of stimulus to cause a muscle contraction?
it is known as the threshold stimulus usually seen in tonic contraction
What percent of the heat produced in the body is the result in muscle contraction?
all
What has happened in the muscle when the maximal stimulus is achieved?
Each of the individual muscle fibers in the muscle are contracted when the maximal stimulus is achieved. Dr. H.
Does muscle contraction always promote movement?
No, muscle contraction doesn't always promote movement. For example, in an isometric contraction, the muscle does not change length, so movement is not produced. Additionally, some muscles can contract to stabilize joints without producing visible movement.
Why is there no further increase in muscle contraction force above the maximum stimulus voltage?
all motor units are in action
What is the definition of Muscular Strength?
Muscular Strength is defined as "The maximum force that can be generated by a muscle or group of muscles in one singular contraction. Muscular strength is affected by the following factors. -Cross sectional area of the muscle -Angle of pull -Length -Age -Gender -Number of fibres (motor units) recruited -Speed of contraction, depends on (Slow or fast twitch muscle fibres) -Shape of muscle -Type of contraction
