Experiment Results Predict Question: Predict Question: As the load on the muscle increases, what will happen to the latent period, the shortening velocity, the distance that the weight moves, and the contraction duration? Your answer : c. The latent period will decrease, the shortening velocity will decrease, the distance will increase, and the contraction duration will increase. Stop & Think Questions: What kind of contraction did you observe when you attached the 2.0 gram weight to the skeletal muscle and stimulated a contraction? You correctly answered: c. isometric Experiment Data: Voltage

Review Sheet Results 1. If you were using your bicep muscles to curl a 7-kg dumbbell, when would your muscles be contracting isotonically? Your answer: When your arm extends downwards to the point of it being straight. (but not while it is straight) & when the arm rises fromthe down position back to the raised position 2. Explain why the latent period became longer as the load became heavier in the experiment. How well did the results compare with your prediction? Your answer: The latent period occurs when there is a rise in muscle tension but no movement or contraction of the muscle. Crossbridges cycle and when the muscle tension exceeds the load, muscle shortening happens. The latent period increases as the weight of the load gets heavier, this is for the necessary force to be generated by the muscle 3. Explain why the shortening velocity became slower as the load became heavier in this experiment. How well did the results compare with your prediction? Your answer: The shortening velocity refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. Maximal shortening velocity is only attained with a minimal load. With a light load, the shortening velocity is at its Maximal shortening velocity. When the weight is heavy, the speed in which the muscle lifts the weight decreases in speed at a slower velocity. My prediction was correct. 4. Describe how the shortening distance changed as the load became heavier in this experiment. How well did the results compare with your prediction? Your answer: The shortening distance decreased with the heavier load. I was wrong. I said that the shortening distance was going to increase. 5. Explain why it would take you longer to perform 10 repetitions lifting a 10-kg weight than it would to perform the same number of repetitions with a 5-kg weight. Your answer: It would take longer with the heavier weight because as the weight of the load increases, so does the latent period time and the shortening velocity speeds. With the lighter weight, the muscle is contracted quicker in both latent and shortening velocity speeds. 6. Describe what would happen in the following experiment: A 2.5-g weight is attached to the end of the isolated whole skeletal muscle used in these experiments. Simultaneously, the muscle is maximally stimulated by 8.5 volts and the platform ing the weight is removed. Will the muscle generate force? Will the muscle change length? What is the name for this type of contraction? Your answer: The muscle will still generate force and change length. This is an isotonic contraction.
