We will explore the contractile properties of skeletal muscle in the next two labs. For Lab 8, you will follow the protocol and experiments listed below (Parts 1-6) and submit a group lab, and for Lab 9 you will do an independent experiment and writeup.
Be thinking about what you might explore further and come up with a good testable hypothesis for your independent lab. Get your independent hypothesis approved by your TA before you leave lab this week (see manual for more details).
