Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Excitability refers to the ability of muscle cells (and neurons) to respond to a stimulus by generating an electrical impulse or action potential. This ability is essential for muscle contraction to occur. Contractility refers to the ability of muscle fibers to contract and generate force. Extensibility refers to the ability of muscle fibers to stretch beyond their resting length without damage, while elasticity refers to the ability of muscle fibers to recoil back to their resting length after being stretched.
