The marginal cost curve is U-shaped. For the first 4 Stuffed Amigos, marginal cost declines from $5 to a low of $1.50. However, for the production beyond 6 Stuffed Amigos, marginal cost increases.
Stretch Reflex. The stretch reflex is one of the simplest reflexes which contract a muscle that is being stretched. The stretch reflex is mediated through a monosynaptic arc and it contributes to the maintenance of steady standing posture and to coordinate muscle movement.
The stretch reflex (myotatic reflex) is a muscle contraction in response to stretching within the muscle. It is a monosynaptic reflex which provides automatic regulation of skeletal muscle length.When a muscle lengthens, the muscle spindle is stretched and its nerve activity increases.This increases alpha motor neuron activity, causing the muscle fibers to contract and thus resist the stretching.t is a monosynaptic reflex which provides automatic regulation of skeletal muscle length.
