Which fascicle arrangement is most well suited to a muscle that needs to generate a lot of force over a small distance?
A
Unipennate.
B
Multipennate.
C
Circular.
D
Fusiform.
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the different types of fascicle arrangements: Unipennate, Multipennate, Circular, and Fusiform.
Recognize that fascicle arrangement affects a muscle's force generation and range of motion.
Identify that multipennate muscles have fascicles that attach obliquely from many directions to several tendons, allowing for greater force generation.
Consider that multipennate muscles are designed to generate a lot of force over a small distance due to their structure.
Conclude that the multipennate arrangement is most suited for generating high force over a short distance, making it the correct choice for this problem.
