Whenever you want to do move your body more than once, you do that by contracting muscles. Bicycle riding, being a repetitive motion, create a lot of muscle contractions.

What describes the events of contraction in excitation-contraction coupling?
cross bridge formation "Excitation-contraction coupling" connects muscle fiber excitation to the muscle fiber contraction (cross bridge formation). During contraction, myosin heads form cross bridges many times-with each cross bridge generating a small amount of tension in the muscle fiber.
How would a drug that interferes with cross bridge formation affect muscle contraction?
a drug that interferes would prevent muscle contraction
What best describes the events of excitation in excitation-contraction coupling?
cross bridge formation "Excitation-contraction coupling" connects muscle fiber excitation to the muscle fiber contraction (cross bridge formation). During contraction, myosin heads form cross bridges many times-with each cross bridge generating a small amount of tension in the muscle fiber.
How does muscle contraction occurs?
Muscle fiber generates tension through the action of actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling. While under tension, the muscle may lengthen, shorten, or remain the same. Although the term contraction implies shortening, when referring to the muscular system, it means muscle fibers generating tension with the help of motor neurons (the terms twitch tension, twitch force, and fiber contraction are also used).
What is the process of excitation contraction coupling?
cross bridge formation "Excitation-contraction coupling" connects muscle fiber excitation to the muscle fiber contraction (cross bridge formation). During contraction, myosin heads form cross bridges many times-with each cross bridge generating a small amount of tension in the muscle fiber.
How do cross bridge power stroke bring about shortening of muscle contraction in human?
because it funny
When a muscle relaxes it becomes?
Muscle fiber generates tension through the action of actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling. While under tension, the muscle may lengthen, shorten or remain the same. Although the term 'contraction' implies shortening, when referring to the muscular system, it means muscle fibers generating tension with the help of motor neurons
Different types of muscular contractions in rugby?
In rugby when you are pushing against each other( in a rugby scrum) your muscles contract but stay the same length and this is isometric contraction. Even though you are using a lot of force your muscles stay the same length.
What is muscle contraction without muscle shortening is what kind of contraction?
Isometric contraction
Cross-bridge formation that results in muscle contraction requires intracellular?
the major intracellular ion in crossbridge formation is what
Constant contraction of a muscle is?
constant contraction of a muscle is called the muscle tone
What happen during muscular contractions?
During the process of muscle contraction, tension starts to build up within the tissue that leads for the body to create some sort of action or sometimes it doesnâ??t. Muscle contraction creates a movement whether it is voluntary or involuntary itâ??s the muscle contraction that is responsible for that certain action.
