The smooth, but steady, increase in muscular tension produced by increasing the number of active motor units is called a recruitment.
Muscle tension is the force produced when a muscle contracts (or when sarcomeres shorten). The two primary forms of skeletal muscle contractions, isotonic contractions and isometric contractions, are produced when a muscle contracts against a load that is not moving.
- A load is transported as the length of the muscle varies during isotonic contractions, in which the tension in the muscle remains constant (shortens). Concentric and eccentric contractions are the two varieties of isotonic contractions.
- When a muscle contracts isometrically, the angle of a skeletal joint remains the same while tension is produced in the muscle. Sarcomeres shorten and muscles tense up during isometric contractions, but the load is not moved since the force generated is insufficient to overcome the resistance provided by the load.

Explanation:
A biome is a place characterized by <u>groups of interacting organisms and the environment in which they live</u>.
Answer:
There are basically 4 components of Biosphere.
Explanation:
Biosphere is the collection of all ecosystems on earth and their interactions with each other. The Biosphere of earth consists the following components,
1. The Biota
All the living organisms including animals, plants, insects and bacteria is called the Biota.
2. Geosphere
Geosphere is the surface of biosphere that is composed of soil, rocks, mountains etc.
3. Hydrosphere
The hydrosphere includes all the water bodies like ocean, rivers, streams and lakes.
4. Atmosphere
Atmosphere is the climate that describes about the temperature, humidity, wind and rain fall in Biosphere.
Answer:
ATP
Explanation:
ATP is regarded as 'root of energetics' for living organisms. So, the organisms utilizes ATP to transport material and eliminate wastes from the body. Not only these functions are carried out by ATP but also several others infact all energy requiring processes are carried out ATP. e.g. muscle movements, neurotransmission, heart beats and various chemical reactions in the body all are carried out with the help of ATP.
In animals ATP is produced from the breakdown of glucose in the cellular respiration, glucose is obtained from the diet we take in. In plants ATP is generated from the process of photosynthesis. The source of energy within ATP is phosphate bonds, the breakdown of one phosphate bond while conversion of ATP into ADP produces or releases 30.6 KJ/mole of energy.
