    Prior to injecting the neurotoxin‚ Tubocurare‚ inside the gastrocnemius muscle‚ a control was established. The baseline was maintained approximately at 20 grams. The control used the maximum voltage of 0.75 volts for the stimulus input. As a result‚ the tension produced 68.13 grams of force. The moment Tubocurare was infused into the gastrocnemius muscle‚ the muscle tension dropped to 47.7 grams of force. Data was recorded for 10 minutes‚ and as predicted prior to the experiment‚ the tension trend

    Muscle dysmorphia is a body dysmorphic disorder whereby sufferers are obsessed with increasing their “muscularity and leanness”‚ even if they may already be very muscular compared to the average person (Choi‚ Pope‚ & Olivardia‚ 2002; Pope‚ Gruber‚ Choi‚ Olivardia‚ & Phillips‚ 1997). They strive to make up for their overstated physical weakness through many hours of weight training and a disproportionately large focus on nutrition (Mosley‚ 2009).

    Muscle Cell at rest: As the muscle cell is at rest it has a resting potential of -90mV.  The K+ is all located inside the cell‚ the Na+ is located outside  of the cell and the Ca2+ is located inside the sarcoplasmic reticulum.  All leak channels and pumps are closed at this point. Muscle Cell stimulated by Acetylcholine: A motor neuron releases Acetylcholine which diffuses toward the  muscle cell across the neuromuscular junction. As the Acetylcholine  binds to a receptor on the muscle

    reduce trauma by relaxing skeletal muscles. Explain the process of muscle contraction and how a neuromuscular blocking agent‚ such as Metubine‚ would interfere with muscle contraction. In order to understand how a neuromuscular blocking agent works one must first understand the process of muscle contraction and what has to take place in order for us to be able to move our muscles. To create a muscle contraction your brain sends a message (nerve impulse) to your muscles via axon extensions. The

    Compare and contrast cardiac and smooth muscle. In cardiac muscle‚ each heartbeat is triggered by the hearts own pacemaker cells‚ which initiate electrical discharge and when this reaches the contractile muscle cells (the cardiomyocytes)‚ they create an action potential which increases the concentration of calcium ions into the cell. Calcium ions play a key role in activating what is known as the contractile machinery – the actin and myosin filaments. The cardiac action potential‚ unlike other forms

    INTRODUCTION Smooth muscle fibers in different organs are distinctly different from each other in their physical dimensions‚ organization into bundles or sheets‚ response to stimuli‚ characteristics of innovation‚ and function. Smooth muscle is responsible for the contractility of hollow organs‚ such as blood vessels‚ the gastrointestinal tract‚ the bladder and the uterus. Specifically in the uterus‚ regulation of smooth muscle contraction is under the influence of an octapeptide known
