can be overstretched causing sprains/ damage to the ligaments. THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER DRAG (MOVE INCORRECTLY) ANYONE. Tendons connect the muscle to the bone. When the muscle contracts this pulls on the tendon that is attached to the bone making the body part move. When the fibres the muscles contains contracts this makes the muscle work. Pulled muscles or torn tendons causing a lot of pain can occurs from sudden movements or pulling of an individual’s limbs/ body. This is why it is important

I’m sure a common picture is of an old skeleton in a closet of a science or biology professor’s classroom. But human cadavers are used for so much more than that‚ and they aren’t really given the credit they deserve. About 20‚000 U.S. cadavers are donated to science every year‚ according to the Orange County Register. What actually is a cadaver? Webster’s dictionary

Ch. 1 1. To what causes can the improvements in workplace safety made to date be attributed? Improvements in safety until now have been the result of pressure for legislation to promote safety and health‚ the steadily increasing costs associated with accidents and injuries‚ and the professionalization of safety as an occupation. Improvements in the future are likely to come as a result of greater awareness of the cost effectiveness and resultant competitiveness gained from a safe and healthy

Jennifer Torres December 11‚ 2014 Professor Julie Trachman Biology 230 Prolotherapy I. Tendons and Ligaments are comprised of dense regular connective tissue. II. Since ligaments do not have a considerable amount of blood or nerve supply‚ if they become injured their limited blood supply results in a longer recovery and healing period. After cartilage has been damaged some repair can be done by appositional growth‚ but after severe damage‚ cartilage is not repaired and a fibrous patch replaces

Lab 4: Skeletal Muscle Function Exercise 5: The Length-Tension Relationship Materials and Methods In this experiment I used a frog anesthetized with ms222. The frog’s skin is cut and removed from both the legs‚ the Achilles tendon is cut and the tendon and calf muscle are removed from the lower legs. The femur muscle is also cut. Attached to the legs are femur clamps which are connected to the transducer arm‚ stimulation electrodes are then positioned against the muscle. I plugged the output

their significance cannot be deprecated as each of them has its preferred areas of applications. Sonography (or ultrasonography) is an imaging technique that makes use of ultrasound to construct images of subcutaneous body structures such as tendons‚ muscles‚ vessels and joints. An image obtained through sonography is called a sonogram. The professional who performs ultrasonography is called a sonographer. This paper has been written with the intent of defining Sonography‚ explaining its importance

Classifications of reflexes A) Primitive reflexes and genetic sub-programs 1. Reflex responses to light touch: Light touch produces a variety of reflex responses‚ depending upon the area stimulated and the age of the individual. The motor responses are most marked in the early months of life. Grasp reflex (palmar and plantar): Light touch of the palm or sole produces reflex flexion of the fingers or toes. The most effective way to elicit the reflex is to
