What are the major differences between Type I and Type II muscle fibers (biologically)? | Type I: Aerobic, red, tonic, slow twitch, slow-oxidative. Type II: Anaerobic, White, phsic, fast-twitch, fast-glycolytic. |
Compare the Functional characteristics of Type I muscle fibers. | Type I: Low fatigability, high capillary density, high myoglobin content, smaller fibers, extensive blood supply, large amountt of mitochondria. Basically, red meat. Used for long activities such as running a marathon, swimming, postural muscles. |
Describe the functional characteristics of Type II muscle fibers. | High fatigability, low capillary density, low myoglobin, larger fibers, less blood supply (than type I), Fewer mitochondria. Used for activities liek the high jump, and sprinting. |
