Question
Chapter 10.7, Problem 3QC
Summary Introduction
To review:
The production of muscle tone.
Introduction:
The movement of different body parts depends on muscle contraction and relaxation. Contraction produces tension in the muscles according to the activities. When the frequency of stimulation is increased in muscle fibers, it will affect muscle tension. Sometimes, the muscle relaxes, but experiences some amount of tension.
