During experiment a skeletal muscle is being stimulated with a series of electrical impulses. What type of muscular contraction will develop, if each following impulse occurs within the relaxation period after the previous single contraction of the muscle?

Answer options

1. Muscle contracture
2. Smooth tetanus
3. Incomplete tetanus
4. Series of single contractions
5. Asynchronous tetanus

Explanation

During experiment a skeletal muscle is being stimulated with a series of electrical impulses. What type of muscular contraction will develop, if each following impulse occurs within the relaxation period after the previous single contraction of the muscle?Incomplete tetanus has a relaxation period during contractions.Complete tetanus has no relaxation period during contractions.
