1. Draw an x-y axis graph. On the x-axis, there is increasing
preload; on the y-axis, is stroke volume. Graph the Frank-Starling
curve: How would preload affect stroke volume? Draw this graph.
- Draw an x-y axis graph. On the x-axis, there is increasing
afterload; on the y-axis, is stroke volume. How would increasing
afterload affect stroke volume? Draw this graph.
For # 3-5: Draw an x-y axis graph. On the x-axis, there is
increasing muscle length; on the y-axis, there is muscle
tension.
- Using this length-tension work diagram, graph the EW curve and
then label all phases of the curve. What happens to the length and
tension at each phase of this EW diagram?
- How would increasing muscle length affect muscle tension? Draw
this graph. What is this called?
- How would decreasing muscle length affect muscle tension? Draw
this graph. What is this called?
