Question
Answer
Are Type 1 muscle fibers Aerobic or Anaerobic?   aerobic - red  
🗑
Are Type 1 muscle fibers slow or fast twitch?   slow  
🗑
Are Type 1 muscle fibers slow-oxidative or fast-glycolytic?   slow-oxidative  
🗑
Are Type 1 muscle fibers tonic or phasic?   Tonic => tonic muscles are responsible for holding your posture  
🗑
Are Type 2 muscle fibers Aerobic or Anaerobic?   Anaerobic - white  
🗑
Are Type 2 muscle fibers slow or fast twitch?   fast twitch  
🗑
Are Type 2 muscle fibers slow-oxidative or fast-glycolytic?   fast-glycolytic  
🗑
Are Type 2 muscle fibers tonic or phasic?   phasic => phasic muscles are used for dynamic movement.  
🗑
what are functional characteristics of Type 1 Muscle fibers?   low fatigability, smaller fibers, large blood supply, large amt of mitochondia => Ex: marathon, swimming  
🗑
what are functional characteristics of Type 2 Muscle fibers?   high fatigability, large fibers, less blood supply, less mitochondria => Ex:high jump, sprinting  
🗑
What are muscle spindles?   Measures change in LENGTH...spread throughout muscle belly.  
🗑
What is the Golgi Tendon Organ?   Measures changes in TENSION. When a GTO is stimulated, it causes its associated muscle to relax by interrupting its contraction. When a muscle is inhibited by a GTO, the process is called autogenic inhibition.  
🗑
What is an isometric contraction   Metric = length. Tension develops but no change in length of muscle. STATIC  
🗑
what is an isotonic contraction   Tonic = tension. Muscle shortens/lengthens while resisting constant load. DYNAMIC  
🗑
what is an isokinetic contraction   tension develops while shortening or lengthening at a constant speed  
🗑
