Detailed explanation-1: -Muscle tone is defined as the continuous and passive-partial contraction of the muscle or the muscle’s resistance to passive stretch during the resting state.
Detailed explanation-2: -Muscle tone is the maintenance of partial contraction of a muscle, important for generating reflexes, maintaining posture and balance, and controlling proper function of other organ systems. Tone is controlled by the sensory muscle spindle, which measures muscle stretch.
Detailed explanation-3: -Muscle tone is the state of a partial passive contraction that occurs in the muscle when the muscle is at rest. The resistance of muscle occurs in the presence of the passive stretch that occurs in the resting state. It is important that muscle tone occurs during resting state so that the health is maintained.
