Physiology of Muscle Contraction
Muscle contraction is a complex physiological process involving the interaction of various cellular and molecular components. Understanding the detailed steps in muscle contraction helps elucidate how muscles generate force and movement. 1. Neuromuscular Junction (NMJ) Nerve Stimulation: Muscle contraction begins with a nerve impulse (action potential) at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). The nerve releases acetylcholine … Read more
