Fig. 7. Dependence of the mechanical efficiency of individual cross-bridges (E) on the amount of isotonic load (P) obtained from the results shown in Figs 4 and 5. Values are scaled to adjust the value at 1.0 P/Po to that in Fig. 4. The amount of work done (W), ATP utilized for whole mechanical response (Pu), ATP utilized for preceding isometric force development (Pi), and ATP utilized for isotonic shortening (Ps) are also shown as functions of load.
