The video begins with the subject's genitals in a non-aroused flaccid state (0:00). As arousal progresses(0:30), the subject's penis becomes erect, the scrotum tightens and the testicles elevate. At the peak of arousal (0:57), orgasm occurs and semen is ejaculated from the penis in a series of rhythmic contractions.
Child Protection and Obscenity Enforcement Act warning This work, which was made after November 1, 1990 and depicts one or more actual human beings engaged in sexually explicit conduct—including but not limited to "lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of any person" (USC 18 § 2256)—has record-keeping requirements in the United States under the Child Protection and Obscenity ...
Depiction of smooth muscle contraction. Muscle contraction is the activation of tension-generating sites within muscle cells. [1] [2] In physiology, muscle contraction does not necessarily mean muscle shortening because muscle tension can be produced without changes in muscle length, such as when holding something heavy in the same position. [1]
In fact, according to a 2015 study published by the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, prostate orgasms produce 12 muscle contractions, while penile orgasms only produce four to eight. In ...
The stretch reflex (myotatic reflex), or more accurately "muscle stretch reflex", is a muscle contraction in response to stretching a muscle. The function of the reflex is generally thought to be maintaining the muscle at a constant length but the response is often coordinated across multiple muscles and even joints. [1]
Activation of RyRs causes the release of calcium from the SR, which subsequently initiates a cascade of events leading to muscle contraction. These muscle contractions are caused by calcium's bonding to troponin and unmasking the binding sites covered by the troponin-tropomyosin complex on the actin myofilament and allowing the myosin cross ...
Electrical activity is only present in the muscle when the muscle voluntarily contracts. [9] When the muscle is contracted, the EMG is able to display the force of the contraction or how the nerves can respond to stimulation. [10] An EMG of coactivation would display the agonist and antagonist muscle contracting simultaneously.
The excitement phase (also known as the arousal phase or initial excitement phase) is the first stage of the human sexual response cycle, which occurs as a result of physical or mental erotic stimuli, such as kissing, making out, fantasizing or viewing erotic images, that leads to sexual arousal.
