What are the muscles located in atria that contract? What is the pleural cavity? What does the pleural cavity do? Is the diaphragm regulated by the somatic nervous system? What is function of bronchi? Describe how the diaphragm and the rib cage function to change the pressure in the thoracic...
The power for the vertical jump starts from the ground up. In the first phase of the jump, you have to bend your hips, knees and ankles to lengthen several of your lower body's muscles. This will allow you to to rebound and explode in an upward motion. Your muscles are similar to e...
In addition to glutathione, there are numerous enzymes involved in the quenching or removal of free radicals (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12). It is not fully known whether the body’s natural antioxidant defense system is sufficient to counteract the increase in free ...
Dorsiflexion of the foot occurs when the foot and toes are raised up towards the shin. This motion can be seen in the diagram that includes different muscles and nerves associated with dorsiflexion. Some motions that are involved with dorsiflexion include: running, walking, toe stretches, and leg...
If the body is cold, –Vasoconstriction : The blood vessels narrow and this slows down the blood flow, and the blood is further away from the surface of the skin. This conserves the heat that is in the body. –Goosebumps: The body starts to shiver, contracting the muscles around the hai...
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency within all living cells and is involved in many vital biochemical reactions, including cell viability, metabolic status, cell death, intracellular signaling, DNA and RNA synthesis, purinergic signaling, synaptic signaling, active transport, and muscle ...
These muscles also help you take deep breaths and are involved in strong breathing-related actions such as coughing and sneezing. Latissimus Dorsi Injury Shaped like a fan, the latissimus dorsi is generally rarely injured, but when it is, it’s due to working out or trauma. Physical ...
This is all good and expected. Interestingly, increased protein intake may improve a muscles oxidative capacity. Meaning you can work aerobically at higher intensities, which is more efficient. This was a result of increased mitochondrial enzymes that are involved in the aerobic respiration pathway. ...
