An Advantage of the Large Fiber Diameter of Fast Glycolytic

Question 19

Multiple Choice

An advantage of the large fiber diameter of fast glycolytic muscle is


A) it's correlated with its large volume, which in turn means it can hold more oxygen, and generate ATP aerobically.
B) it implies more cross-sectional area and the fiber can therefore hold more mitochondria, which means it can generate more ATP to power contraction.
C) it has less surface area relative to its volume, so it depolarizes more rapidly, since current has less distance to spread.
D) it has more myofibrils per unit length, which means it can form more
Cross-bridges, and generate more power (force) .
E) none of these.
