Extract
When a striated muscle is stimulated at one point, the excitation travels away from that point at a finite speed. The whole of the muscle is active when the wave of contraction has travelled the length of the muscle. Doubt has been cast as to whether the electrical wave associated with membrane excitation travels at the same velocity as the wave of contraction.
