Answer: muscle contraction of sustained force resulting from repeated action potentials. (Option A)

Explanation: Tetanus is also called physiologic tetanus. Tetanus refers to the contraction of the muscle, which is established when the motor nerve that supply nerves to a skeletal muscle produces action potentials at a very high degree.

However, tetanic contraction is usually a normal process (such as when carrying a heavy box). Also, muscles can be shorten, lengthen or remain constant length during tetanic contractions.

Answer: 100%

Explanation:

if the mutation presents autosomal dominant inheritance, each affected individual will show 100% alteration in the protein, thus , being dominant, it is considered that the disease pattern will predominate even if it has genes that do not express it since these will be recessive and canceled by the dominant ones.
