Talk:Motor unit

Recent subtraction
I just removed this:
 * groups of motor units work together, as a single muscle

because I couldn't quite gather the meaning and didn't want to convey the idea that a group of motor units is equivalent to a muscle. Motor units contain muscle fibers, which are the substance of muscles, but a mass of motor units is not equivalent to a muscle. It's better to say that groups of motor units often work together to coordinate the contractions of a single muscle. Which I suppose I could easily add to the article right now... ;-) --David Iberri (talk) 04:18, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Edit Request
I'm confused about what 'They stretch the spinal column to increase height.' could mean. If this makes sense to someone, could you please rephrase it. I am taking it to mean 'They (the axons of neurons which extend from the spinal column) pull on the spine, and this results in lengthening the spine.' This doesn't seem possible. I hope someone can clarify.-- Dolmetscher —Preceding undated comment added 11:44, 6 May 2009 (UTC).
