filaments must slide past one another (Widmaier 2011). Muscle fibers are innervated by motor neurons. A motor unit is a single motor neuron and all muscle fibers it innervates. Contraction occurs through a mechanism called excitation-contraction coupling when an action potential propagates down a motor neuron axon to initiate contraction. As the action potential then travels down these transverse tubules it opens ion channels‚ which releases calcium into the sarcoplasm. When this calcium is released‚ binding

Thermal Expansion and Contraction Most of the matters‚ without some exceptions‚ expand with the increasing temperature. When you give heat to matters; speed of its particles increase and distance between them also increase which results in the increase of the volumes of matters. All expansions occurs in volume of the substance however‚ sometimes some of the dimensions of them expand more with respect to others. In this case we neglect the less expanded ones and assume expansion like linear expansion

Muscle contractions tend to be smooth and vary in strengths‚ depending on the demands placed on them. The variations of strength are called graded muscle responses. There are two ways a muscle contraction can be graded‚ either by changing the frequency of stimulation or by changing the strength of the stimulation. When a muscle is responding to a change in stimulus frequency‚ the nervous system will reach a greater muscular force when increasing the firing of motor neurons. This causes a wave or

Eskom’s ‘Load shedding’ Our community seems outraged by Eskom. People feel that because they paying for their power then why should they save? Yes it is Eskom’sfault that they never placed a power back up system but we do have to live with it for a while unfortunately. However Eskom does claim that they are doing everything possible in order to accommodate everyone. People are saying though that they are not living up to any of their promises made in the beginning. In fact many claims and promises

During a Muscle Contraction The muscle fiber is in a resting state. The resting state is slightly negative inside and slightly positive outside. It has to be in this state in order to receive a message. First the brain sends a message to the muscle using a neuron then reaches the axon terminal of the neuron. Calcium gates then open on the axon terminal allowing calcium to rush in. Ach release from axon terminals‚ diffuses across the synaptic clef and binds to (receptors) on motor end plate. Then

Electricity load shedding in Pakistan has increased manifold. Minister of water and power Raja Pervaiz Ashraf assured that electricity load shedding would be done according to time schedule. He assured that electricity load shedding will finish by the end of the year 2009 but instead it is doubled what it was in the past year 2009. It is big failure of the government of Pakistan. No country can make progress without electricity. Recent government measures of holiday on Saturday and other saving methods
