Experiment 1: Effect of changing load on isotonic and isometric contraction
Question: What effect will increasing load (weight) have on the ability to move objects?
Hypothesis: In an isometric contraction, the muscle as a whole does not change its length,
and the tension developed in the muscle never exceeds the load while in an isotonic contraction,
tension develops to a point and then remains constant while the muscle changes its length.
Results
Data: 1 = easy to move; 2 = medium effort; 3 = difficult

Running head: MUSCLE PHYSIOLOGY LAB: BIO107 3 Student 3 was 14 years old, had little expereienceon previous strength exercise and was a male. Conclusion The more the weight added, the speed reduced when lifting the weights. Students with previous exercise experience had a relatively easier time as compared to those who had no experience. The male students had an easier time than their female counterparts. Experiment 2: Effect of changing load on speed of isotonic contractio ...
