A technique in which the muscles are stretched by an outside force is called <u>passive stretching</u>.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
There are several type of stretching which includes;
<u><em>Active stretching</em></u> is a technique in which muscles are stretched by the contraction of the opposing muscles.
<em><u>Ballistic Stretching</u></em> is a technique in which muscles are stretched by the force generated as a body part is repeatedly bounced, or swung.
<em><u>Dynamic Stretching</u></em> is a technique in which muscles are stretched by moving joints slowly and fluidly through their range of motion in a controlled manner; also called functional stretching.
<em><u>Static stretching</u></em> is a technique in which a muscle is slowly and gently stretched and then held in the stretched position.
The result will be the production of ATP molecules if we place thylakoids in a beaker with a solution that mimics the chloroplast stroma in direct sunlight. The thylakoids are able to formed ATP in the dark because H+ gradient is required for ATP synthesis. The scientists find out that the light reactions were not necessary to establish the H+ gradient required for ATP synthesis by ATP synthase.
