❥What is isotonic contraction? ​​
Biology
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Isotonic contractions maintain constant tension in the muscle as the muscle changes length. This can occur only when a muscle's maximal force of contraction exceeds the total load on the muscle. Isotonic muscle contractions can be either concentric (muscle shortens) or eccentric (muscle lengthens).

Elastic fibers are important to muscle tissue since they resist excessive stretching and help muscle fibers spring back to its o
brilliants [131]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Elastic fibers are composed of elastin, myofibrils and fibrillin. They are distributed <u>separately</u>, and therefore do not form bundles(they actually form a kind of mesh), like collagen fibers.

Elastic fibers are usually thin and long and can stretch up to 1.5x of their total length.

These fibers confer elasticity to the connective tissue. The mesh formed of elastic fibers easily yields to minimal tensions, returning to its original shape as soon as the deforming forces cease.

An example of the action of elastic fibers is when we pull the skin from our hands and release it, the elastic fibers are responsible for quickly returning the skin to its original shape.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The agent causing the pneumonia, where bluish-green pus was found, is most likely Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Explanation:

Pseudomona aeuriginosa is a gram-negative bacteria that is one of the main causes of hospital-acquired infections, including pneumonias in mechanically ventilated patients.

One of the characteristics of P. aeuriginosa is the formation of a bluish-green pus, since it has the capacity to form cyanide-based blue pigment upon contact with the organic tissues it infects. This is the reason why previously P. aeruginosa was called a pyocyanic bacillus.

<em>     The other options are not correct because the only bacterium that produces blue-green pus is P. aeruginosa.</em>
