Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test what substances are necessary for muscle contraction. Hypothesis: Based off the frog muscle immersed separately in Solution A of ATP and distilled water solution‚ Solution B of ATP with KCl in distilled water and MgCl2 in distilled water and solution C of KCl and MgCl2 in distilled water‚ I hypothesize that solution B of ATP with KCl in distilled water and MgCl2 in distilled water will cause the muscle to contract. Introduction: This lab consisted of

the skeletal muscle is generating force‚ but it remains at a fixed length. 2. The force that results from muscles being stretched is You correctly answered: a. passive force. 3. Active force You correctly answered: b. is determined by the amount of myosin bound to actin. 4. When you generate the isometric length-tension curve‚ which of the following forces will not be indicated on your screen? You correctly answered: c. tetanic force 5. Passive force in skeletal muscle is largely caused by You correctly

Experiment 2: Skeletal Muscle ABSTRACT Frog skeletal muscle is used as an animal model to study muscle contraction. The objectives of this experiment is to demonstrate the physiological responses of skeletal muscle to electrical stimuli using frog gastrocnemius‚ to understand twitch‚ summation‚ tetanus and fatigue‚ to investigate the relationship between initial tension and force of contraction‚ to explore the differences between human and frog skeletal muscle. The threshold voltage is 0.4V. The

LABORATORY REPORT Activity 2: Twitch Contractions and Summation PREDICTIONS Effect of Muscle Fiber Length on Contraction 1. As muscle fiber length increases: contraction force increases‚ becoming maximum at an optimal length‚ then decreasing at longer lengths. Effect of Stimulation Frequency on Contraction 2. As the frequency of stimulation increases‚ the force of contraction: increases. MATERIALS AND METHODS Measurement of Threshold Stimulus 1. Dependent Variable: contraction force
