This document contains the results of a student named Talitha Salsabila completing an exercise on skeletal muscle physiology. The student scored 100% on the pre-lab quiz by correctly answering questions about isometric contractions, passive force, active force, and the source of passive force. During the experiment, the student measured force generated at different muscle lengths. The student's prediction that total force could increase or decrease with length was correct. However, the student only scored 20% on the post-lab quiz by incorrectly answering questions about isometric contractions, the source of passive force, and optimal length for active tension.

Pre-lab Quiz Results


You scored 100% by answering 5 out of 5 questions correctly.

1. During an isometric contraction


You correctly answered: d. the skeletal muscle is generating force, but it remains at a fixed length.

2. The force that results from muscles being stretched is


You correctly answered: a. passive force.

3. Active force
You correctly answered: b. is determined by the amount of myosin bound to actin.

4. When you generate the isometric length-tension curve, which of the following forces will not be indicated on your
screen?
You correctly answered: c. tetanic force

5. Passive force in skeletal muscle is largely caused by


You correctly answered: c. the protein titin.

Experiment Results
Predict Question:
Predict Question: As the resting length of the muscle is changed, what will happen to the amount of total force the muscle
generates during the stimulated twitch?
Your answer : c. Total force can increase or decrease depending upon the starting resting length.

Stop & Think Questions:


Note the dip in total force at a muscle length of
90 mm as compared to the total force at a muscle length of 80 and 100 mm. Why does this occur?
You correctly answered: d. At this muscle length, active force has decreased in value and passive force has not yet
increased to a significant value.

Your answer: c. the fiber is longer than its resting length.
Correct answer: a. the fiber is at its resting length.
