Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of reciprocal activation in muscle physiology?

  • To coordinate muscle movement and prevent muscle fatigue
  • To enhance muscle endurance and delay the onset of muscle soreness
  • To regulate muscle contraction and relaxation for efficient movement (correct)
  • To induce muscle hypertrophy and increase muscle strength
  • What happens when a muscle fiber is depleted of energy supplies?

  • The muscle will exhibit increased strength in contraction
  • The muscle will fail to relax between stimuli (correct)
  • The muscle will experience complete tetanus
  • The muscle will completely relax
  • What is the role of lactic acid in muscle physiology?

  • It directly triggers muscle contraction
  • It enhances ATP production in muscle cells
  • It competes with Mg2+ for binding to troponin (correct)
  • It causes rigor mortis in the absence of ATP
  • How does the stimulus frequency affect muscle contraction?
