Predict Question:
Predict Question: As the stimulus voltage is increased from 1.0 volt up to 10 volts, what will happen to the amount of active
force generated with each stimulus?
Your answer : c. The active force will first increase and then plateau at some maximal value as the stimulus voltage
increases.
What is the lowest stimulus voltage that induces active force in the skeletal muscle?
You correctly answered: b. threshold voltage
6. Enter the threshold voltage for this experiment in the field below and then click Submit to record your answer in the lab
report
You answered: 0,8 volts
12. Enter the maximal voltage for this experiment in the field below and then click Submit to record your answer in the lab
report.
You answered: 8,5 volts

Review Sheet Results
1. Describe the effect of increasing stimulus voltage on isolated skeletal muscle. Specifically, what happened to the muscle
force generated with stronger electrical stimulations and why did this change occur? How well did the results compare with
your prediction?
You did not answer this question.
3. What happened in the isolated skeletal muscle when the maximal voltage was applied?
You did not answer this question.
