Predict Question:
Predict Question: As the stimulus frequency increases further, what will happen to the muscle tension and twitch
appearance with each successive stimulus? Will there be a limit to this response?
You did not answer this question.

Stop & Think Questions:


What begins to happen at around 80 msec?
You did not answer this question.
Correct answer: c. unfused tetanus develops

How does the trace at 130 stimuli/sec compare with the trace at 50 stimuli/sec?
You did not answer this question.
Correct answer: b. Fused tetanus develops at this greater stimulus frequency.

How do the traces with 146–150 stimuli per second compare with the trace at 130 stimuli per second?
You did not answer this question.
Correct answer: d. Maximal tetanic tension develops with these very high stimulation frequencies.
