Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A type of contraction that involves no change in muscle length
A
concentric
B
eccentric
C
isometric
D
peristalsis
E
agonist
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Isometric contractions are contractions in which there is no change in the length of the muscle. No joint or limb motion occurs. Isotonic contractions occur when the muscle changes length, producing limb motion. Concentric contractions occur when the muscle shortens.

Detailed explanation-2: -Isometric exercises are tightening (contractions) of a specific muscle or group of muscles. During isometric exercises, the muscle doesn’t noticeably change length. The affected joint also doesn’t move. Isometric exercises help maintain strength.

Detailed explanation-3: -Isotonic contractions are those in which there is consistent tension as the muscle length changes. These can be either concentric (muscle shortening) or eccentric (muscle elongation). Isometric contractions are those in which the length of the muscle does not change.

Detailed explanation-4: -Isometric: A muscular contraction in which the length of the muscle does not change. isotonic: A muscular contraction in which the length of the muscle changes. eccentric: An isotonic contraction where the muscle lengthens. concentric: An isotonic contraction where the muscle shortens.
