found in animals: connective‚ muscle‚ nervous‚ and epithelial. We are going to go into muscle tissue. The cells of muscle tissues are called fibers. There are three types of muscle tissue and they are skeletal‚ cardiac‚ and smooth. All types can go though hypertrophy (enlargement or overgrowth of an organ or part of the body due to the increased size of the constituent cells). Muscle fibers contract due to the interaction of the contractile proteins‚ actin and myosin. Muscle contraction generates contractile

Gluteals are the group of muscles comprising of your buttocks. Out the four muscles in your buttocks‚ there are only 3 groups of muscle that can be found on your buttocks. These muscles are gluteus maximus‚ medius and minimus. The fourth group which is the smallest one is the tenor fasciae latae muscles that can be found in the anterior area of the body. Functioning together‚ the gluteal muscles handle most of the motions of the upper leg‚ which includes rotation of the thigh‚ and abduction and turning

Muscle fatigue occurs when a muscle has a diminished ability to continue to produce force‚ usually occurring due to extensive use of those muscles‚ such as when performing extraneous activity. On a molecular level‚ there are a number of things that happen that prevent the muscle from performing more action‚ ultimately to prevent any damage from being afflicted on the muscles cells. One particular effect that most people are likely familiar

Christopher Couchell Muscle Physiology Purpose: The Purpose of this exercise is to understand how muscle twitch‚ contract and react to different activities. Exercise 1: Muscle Twitch A. What is a muscle twitch? A muscle twitch is the fasciculation ‚ or "muscle twitch"‚ is a small‚ local‚ involuntary muscle contraction and relaxation visible under the skin. B. According to the graphs‚ which muscle has the fastest twitch? Why? The lateral rectus eye muscle has the fastest twitch. It

Muscles are a Band or bundles of tissue in either the human body ‚ or animal body that allow contraction for movement. There are many muscles in the body. It is stated that there are over 650 muscles in the body ‚ and is said that there are possibilities of up to 840. Your whole body is a muscle. You have Muscles in your head‚ arms‚ legs‚ just about anywhere you can think of and as we progress in life and become of age our muscles may grow and get stronger ‚ or may deteriorate. We can also come across

Stress Relief Muscle tension often occurs when we are under mental stress. Stretching helps us to relax our muscles and our minds. Muscular Training Muscular Endurance With increased muscular endurance‚ you will be able to perform physical activities that require muscle movement over a longer period of time. Muscular Strength With increased muscular strength‚ you will be able to apply maximum force against a resistance (like lifting a couch) and be less fatigued. Muscle Mass and Basal Metabolism
