Exercise 2: Skeletal Muscle Physiology: Activity 6: The Skeletal Muscle Length-Tension Relationship Lab Report
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

Experiment Results
Predict Question:
Predict Question: As the resting length of the muscle is changed, what will happen to the amount of total force the muscle
generates during the stimulated twitch?
Your answer : a. An increase in muscle length will increase total force.

1. When a skeletal muscle is stimulated and generates force but remains at a fixed length
You correctly answered: d. the muscle is contracting isometrically.
2. Which protein is mostly responsible for the development of passive force in a muscle?
You correctly answered: d. titin
4. Which of the following is not depicted in a typical skeletal muscle isometric length-tension curve?
You correctly answered: a. time

Review Sheet Results
1. What happens to the amount of total force the muscle generates during the stimulated twitch? How well did the results
compare with your prediction?
Your answer:
Ketika terjadi peningkatan kecepatan otot, kekuatan total pada otot meningkat dan ketika tejadi penurunan panjang
kekuatan pada otot menurun
3. Based on the unique arrangement of myosin and actin in skeletal muscle sarcomeres, explain why active force varies
with changes in the muscle's resting length.
Your answer:
Ketika istirahat, panjang otot meningkat dan ada lebih banyak waktu untuk jembatan miosin kembali ke posisi awal
5. If you were curling a 7-kg dumbbell, when would your bicep muscles be contracting isometrically?
Your answer:
Kontraksi isometrik otot biceps terjadi ketika mengangkat barbel
