What is Newton's Third Law
For every action there is an opposite reaction
100
Passive: when a muscle cannot lengthen anymore, occurs with antagonist of muscle

Active: when a muscle cannot shorten anymore, occurs with agonist of muscle
Explain the difference between active and passive insufficiency

What is Open kinetic chain
What is it called when the the proximal segment remains stationary and the distal end is free to move

What is second class lever
What lever favors effort?
200
Excitability

Name one of the four properties of a muscle tissue
200
What is osteokinematics
What is the movement of the long bone around an axis
200
What is Golgi Tendon Organs
These detect active tension in a muscle, which not only helps them determine the appropriate force needed for a task, but also sends an inhibitory message to relax
200
What are the brain and spinal cord
What makes up the Central Nervous System
300
The shorter the muscular moment arm, more effort needed. The longer the muscular moment arm, less effort needs, but also increased angular velocity so it is harder o stop the due to the mass distribution moving as a high rate.
Explain how the difference in the muscular moment arm can affect the outcome of an object of mass in terms of intertia
300
What is force-power relationship
What is the name of the relationship that demonstrates power produced is controlled by how quickly and powerfully the muscle contracts
(Hint: optimum power is when muscle is slightly stretched)
300
The convex surface of the joint moves on the concave surface in the opposing motion compared to where the segment is moving
(i.e. shoulder joint)
What is the convex-concave principle?
300
What is flexor withdrawal reflex
What reflex is rapidly flexing your muscles to protect your body from damaging stimuli?
300
What is the plastic region
DAILY DOUBLEEEEEEE

What region of a stress-strain curve do you reach when you no longer can return to the original shape
