Understand the anatomy and physiology in relation to moving and positioning individuals 1.1 Outline the anatomy and physiology of the human body in relation to the importance of correct moving and positioning of individuals Our bodies have lots of bones and muscles and these work together to help the body move. Every part of the body has certain muscles and bones that will work that part of the body. They work like hinges or levers to pull the muscles in the correct direction. When our bodies get

Isotonic contraction (“same tone” or tension) - In isotonic contractions‚ myofilaments are successful in their sliding movements‚ the muscle shortens‚ and movement occurs. Contractions in which the muscles do not shorten are called isometric contractions (“same measurement” or length). In isometric contractions‚ the myosin mysofilaments are “skidding their wheels‚” and the twnaion
