joints, and muscles. This system gives the body form and support, and protects the body while allowing it to move. Basically, the muscles in this system perform three important body functions: the movement of body parts, maintenance of body parts, and production of body heat. These muscles all consist of a mass of protein fibers grouped together, and most are of mesodermal origin. And almost all of the muscle fibers you will ever have or need were present at birth. Nearly half of your body mass is…
Advance Preparation—ATP Muscle Kit 1. Order the ATP muscle kits (Carolina) to be delivered no more than seven days before the lab. One kit provides generously for eight students. Extra vials of the chemical solutions can be ordered separately (Carolina) and will reduce waiting time. Just before the lab begins, cut the muscle bundles into 2-centimeter lengths and place in a petri dish in the accompanying glycerol. 64 Exercise 11 R E V I E W S H E E T NAME ____________________________________…
Bones There are 206 bones in the human body. Bones are extremely important to the skeletal system and human body and have many functions including: Structural Support: Bones provide support to the Human Body as well as helping it keep it's shape. Protection: Bones such as the rib cage provide protection for vital organs such as the Heart and Lungs as well as the skull which protects the Brain. Movement: Bones work with the muscles, joints, ligaments and tendons of the body to assist with movement…
Muscles attached to scapula: Levator scapulae origin is transverse processes of C1-C4, insertion at superior angle of scapula, it moves scapula and flexes neck. Pectoralis minor's origin is ribs 3-5 and insertion at coracoid process of scapula, it depresses scapula and elevates ribs. Rhomboids Major and Rhomboids Minor's origin at spinous processes T1-T4, insertion at medial border of scapula, they move scapula. Serratus anterior's origin is at ribs 1-9, insertion is at medial border of scapula…
Gluteus Maximus: This is the muscle that is worked in the actions of the rowing gesture, but it tends to be worked less than your major leg muscles. Quadriceps: These muscles are located in the back of your upper leg, they are mainly worked when your knees bend on the way back to the starting position (the catch)…
The human body is the entire structure of a human being and comprises a head, neck, trunk (which includes the thorax and abdomen), arms and hands, legs and feet. Every part of the body is composed of various types of cell.[1] At maturity, the estimated average number of cells in the body is given as 37.2 trillion. This number is stated to be of partial data and to be used as a starting point for further calculations. The number given is arrived at by totalling the cell numbers of all the organs…
THE HUMAN BODY Our bodies are supported by the skeletal system which is made up of bones, ligaments and tendons. The skeletal system works with the muscular system to help the body move. It shapes the body and also protects organs. Inside bones we found the Marrow, which is soft, fatty tissue that produces red blood cells, many white blood cell and other immune system cells. The muscular system consists of about 650 muscles and is responsible for the movement…
A human body system A system of human body means a collective functional unit made by several organs in which the organs work in complete coordination with one another. Organs cannot work alone because their are certain needs of every organ that need to be fulfilled and the organ itself cannot fulfill those needs. So all organs of human body need the support of other organs to perform their functions and in this way an organ system is formed. Example of dependance of organs of a system on one…
to challenge all of the muscle groups in the body. This can only be done with multiple levels of resistance (tension). The fact is that each of your muscle groups is a different size and a different strength. Your thighs are stronger than your arms, your back is stronger than your shoulders etc… If you use one level of resistance for all of your muscles some will be challenged and some will not. Why is it so important to challenge you muscles? When you challenge a muscle (place it under new stresses)…
