Three major types of muscle and their characteristics
|
1. Cardiac: striated, due to myofibrils and sarcomeres aligned side by side.2. Skeletal muscle: also striated, voluntary muscle (can be controlled).3. Smooth: not striated, involuntary (in blood vessels)

Define Length-Tension relationship
|
The length at which a muscle can produce the greatest force, which is usually at resting?
|
|
What causes alterations in muscle length and how does this affect length-tension relationships?
|
Things like misaligned joints or under/overdevelopment (poor posture leads to misaligned joints leading to altered muscle length, and overdeveloping one part of the muscle does the same thing) affect length-tension relationships because if the length is altered, the muscle cannot generate enough force needed for efficient movement.
|
|
Define force-couple relationship
|
Muscle groups moving together (synergistic movement) to produce movement around a joint.
