    properties of cardiac muscle on a cane toad’s (Bufo marinus) heart and the adaptive ability of the heart to produce a response when subject to different conditions of temperature‚ stretch on contractile force‚ substances of acetylcholine‚ adrenaline and atropine‚ and increased frequency of stimulus. Regarding Figure 1‚ the regular heartbeat and contraction force of the toad was identified to demonstrate the difference between atrial contractions and ventricular contractions in a normal environment

    (NCBI)‚ depending on the task males or females were more or less resistant for the muscle group being used. Valley Center High School physiology students conducted experiments on muscle size and strength and muscle fatigue. With this in mind‚ the data the students collected from these labs and other sources shows how muscle size and sex have an impact on an individual’s muscle fatigue resistance. First‚ the muscle size of an individual determines how long they can withstand certain types of physical

    Abstract The effect of nature of substrates on the rate of cellular respiration in yeast was determined by using the Smith fermentation tube method. Mixtures of 15ml distilled H2O‚ 10% yeast suspension and 15ml of the following solutions (all at 10% concentration):1- starch‚ 2 – lactose‚ 3 – sucrose‚ 4 – glucose‚ 5 – fructose‚ 6 – distilled water ‚ were poured in six smith fermentation tubes. Cotton balls were plugged in the openings of the tubes and the tubes were kept upright and observed for

    constrictions in the uterus push a baby into the birth canal‚ contractions in the uterus increase; (2) when a blood vessel is damaged‚ the vessel constricts and chemicals are released to plug and repair the hole. Body Temperature Homeostasis In warm-blooded animals such as humans‚ body temperature must be maintained by various negative feedback reflex responses within the body. Heat in the body is generated by the cellular respiration reaction‚ combining oxygen and ATP (a product of glucose) and

    Tyler Cowan Professor Foltz Biology 181 April 8th 2015 Lab Report: Respiration Abstract: The objective of this lab was to figure out which has a higher cell respiration rate between crayfish and elodea. In order to figure this out we first set up three beakers to represent our control‚ elodea and crayfish and filled them with 75mL of culture solution which were dechlorinated making the solution acidic. We then had to place both the elodea and the crayfish in separate beakers filled with 25mL of
