Bones in our body are living tissue. They have their own blood vessels and are made of living cells‚ which help them to grow and to repair themselves. Every single person has a skeleton made up of many bones. These bones give your body structure‚ let you move in many ways‚ protect your internal organs‚ and more. As well‚ proteins‚ minerals and vitamins make up the bone. Bones have several parts‚ but are manily made out of calcium deposits. It takes around 20 years for our bones to completely

Muscle Soreness Nearly anyone who works out regularly has experienced sore muscles after exercise. Sometimes you will feel it later that night‚ or the next morning and in some cases‚ you may actually think you are out of the woods‚ only to wake up two days later with stiff‚ tender muscles that feel as tight as rubber bands. For some people‚ sore muscles are a reward after a hard workout. In fact‚ some people are not happy unless they are sore after their workout‚ while others could live without

the components of the human nervous system‚ inclusive of the CNS (central nervous system) the somatic system‚ and both divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Include in your outline the major distinctions among these systems. Human Nervous System – Overview The human nervous system is composed of all nerve tissues in the body. The functions of nerve tissue are to receive stimuli‚ transmit stimuli to nervous centers‚ and to initiate response The nervous system has two distinct parts

There are thousands of burn victims awaiting donations of human tissue to help meet critical needs in reconstructive surgery. My current case #49 regards the selling of human tissue donations. It’s a complicated situation where a few medical centers have acquired a partnership with a biotechnological company called Ardias Corporation. Ardias wants to create a tissue bank to help facilitate researchers with disease-specific tissue that will provide a link to accurate genetic sequence with diseases

Discuss the relationship between distribution of muscle fibre type and performance. How might exercise training modify or change a person’s fibre-type distribution? There are four different types of muscle fibres: type 1‚ type 2a‚ type 2x‚ and type 2c. “A single skeletal muscle contains fibres having different speeds of shortening and ability to generate maximal force: type 1 (slow-twitch) fibres and type 2 (fast-twitch) fibres. Type 1 fies take approximately 110 ms to reach peak tension when

factors affect muscle fatigue? Introduction: In this experiment muscles will be tested with weight‚ to see if weight is truly a factor in muscle fatigue. Muscle fatigue is the muscle’s ability to contract exert its normal strength due to physical stress upon it. The structure of a muscle include a thin layer called epimysium which surrounds the entire muscle‚ deeper to the epimysium is the perimysium. This layer contains fascicles which are bundles of muscle cells. In between the muscle cells are endomysium

Question describe the different types of epithetical tissue including structure function‚ and location. Answer: there are many types of epithetical tissue with many different functions in different parts of the body that do many different things working together to do there job to maintain these conclusions‚ first off theres the simple squamous: known as a single layer commonly very flat known for filitration and & absorption found in the lungs and blood vessels‚ known as the circulatory system

Nervous habits & bad habits for the body are behaviors that we pick up or are set off from the feeling of being nervous‚ stressed out and bored. Whether it’s nail-biting‚ teeth-grinding‚ over eating‚ or hair pulling‚ nervous habits plague many individuals‚ who just can’t seem to stop. But why do we engage in these behaviors and will they have damaging effects on the body? That’s what I’m going to converse about and explain in this paper. Nail biting is the most common type of nervous habits

11. Identify the four basic types of tissues and the functions of each tissue type. There are four different types of tissue. They are; nerve‚ epithelial‚ connective‚ and muscle. The nerve tissue is made up of neurons that receive and transmit electrical impulses‚ this is their function. There are several different types of epithelial tissue. First there is simple squamous epithelium tissue. This is a single layer of cells that is in the lining of blood vessels‚ the lining of the pulmonary alveoli
