We struggle hard to lift the object with our fully extended arm because when we extend our arm fully it decreases the overlapping of our thin and the thick filaments of our muscles which makes it difficult to lift. In other words, the resting length of our arm is the optimal length to generate force.

Vibrissae serve a number of purposes: such as sense of touch; detection of danger, air and water currents, and movements of other animals; and the locating of food.
