Muscle fatigue‚ or physical fatigue‚ is the decline in ability of a muscle to generate force. It can be a result of strenuous exercise but unusual fatigue may be caused by interference with the different stages of muscle contraction. There are two main causes of muscle fatigue‚ nervous fatigue and metabolic fatigue. Nervous Fatigue Nervous fatigue is the decline in the ability of a nerve to sustain a signal resulting in innervation of the muscle. The muscle’s ability to generate force is most strongly

VI. Results and Discussion In this exercise‚ the goal was to produce acetylsalicylic acid through the organic synthesis from the reaction of salicylic acid to acetic anhydride‚ the starting materials. Instead of using acetic acid‚ acetic anhydride was used as solvent since the anhydride reacting with water to form acetic acid tends to drive the reaction to the right. It results from the elimination of a molecule of water from two molecules of acetic acid (see Fig. 11.2). Figure 11.3 below
