Full Transcript

This video series covers part 3 of the Anatomy and Physiology of the muscular system. It discusses tension production in muscle fibers including the way that sarcomere length and neural stimulation relate to the amount of tension produced. It explains the phases that occur in a single twitch and discusses the way that tension builds to peak. The video summarizes the ways that we power muscle contractions and discusses the different types of contraction. This lecture series is done by Dr. Katy Wallis in Anatomy and Physiology at State College of Florida.
