(NCBI)‚ depending on the task males or females were more or less resistant for the muscle group being used. Valley Center High School physiology students conducted experiments on muscle size and strength and muscle fatigue. With this in mind‚ the data the students collected from these labs and other sources shows how muscle size and sex have an impact on an individual’s muscle fatigue resistance. First‚ the muscle size of an individual determines how long they can withstand certain types of physical

excitation-contraction coupling mechanism between skeletal and cardiac muscles. Excitation-contraction coupling is the combination of the electrical and mechanical events in the muscle fibres and is related by the release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. (Silverthorn‚ 2007) In the skeletal muscle‚ action potential in the nerves is generated when the somatic motor neurons releases the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh)‚ at the neuromuscular junction. This initiates muscle action potential which is then

Discuss the relationship between distribution of muscle fibre type and performance. How might exercise training modify or change a person’s fibre-type distribution? There are four different types of muscle fibres: type 1‚ type 2a‚ type 2x‚ and type 2c. “A single skeletal muscle contains fibres having different speeds of shortening and ability to generate maximal force: type 1 (slow-twitch) fibres and type 2 (fast-twitch) fibres. Type 1 fies take approximately 110 ms to reach peak tension when
