Question

Design a hypothetical experiment that would observe either the force-length or force-velocity curve of a muscle or muscle group in humans. Think about how you would test muscle force or motor unit recruitment at different muscle lengths or velocities in humans if you were asked to do so in a physical lab. No details needed about subjects or materials, just the procedure.

no figure required

Answer 1

In an experiment to find the force of muscle and velocity of movement then it can be done by

• As the number of cross bridges attached at a time will be the force generated by the muscles
• It takes a specific amount of time for the muscle to move and the filament to slide over one bride to the another while moving
• So the force depends on the specific velocity of a specific area that is when the gliding of muscle from one to one increase in speed it will cause decrease in force produce
• Main reason for reducing force In increasing velocity is the inability of the gliding protein to bind when velocity increase that cause enormous reduction in force

Experimentally it can be found by the number of molecules gliding at a time and the force that it exertes
