the grass, and it was “magically” cut. Their body systems were able to make this process happen. Muscular System: The muscular system’s main functions are heat production, enabling movement, and posture. There are three types of muscles: smooth, cardiac,

P3-Types of muscle There are three main types of muscle tissue in the body: Skeletal muscle, smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. Firstly, skeletal muscle has a stripped appearance when it is examined under a microscope so it is sometimes known as striated/stripped muscle. Skeletal muscle is voluntary and this means that it is under conscious control. Secondly, there is smooth muscle which is an involuntary muscle that operates without any conscious control. This muscle is controlled by the nervous

Dry needle therapy is an invasive treatment procedure in which a needle is inserted into a muscle trigger point (Ries, 2015). The goal of dry needle therapy is to cause a local twitch response, which is defined as a “brisk contraction of a taut band of skeletal muscle fibers elicited by snapping palpation of a trigger point [TrP] in that band” (Hong, 1994). It is distinct from acupuncture and is a westernized form of trigger point therapy (Kalichman & Vulfsons, 2010). In the 1940s, doctors Janet

Protandim and It’s Effects The corporation LifeVantage has made a scientific break through. They may have possibly found a “crack” in the aging process of mammals. Through a dietary supplement, taking one tiny, yellow pill once a day may help slow down the effects of oxidative stress on mammal’s cells. They call this wonderful little miracle Protandim, looking through studies Protandim is proving its miracle like effects. Protandim has had positive effects, including but not limited to slowing the

To begin with, the muscular system basically makes movement. Every step you take, every time you blink your eyes and eve when you swallow food, that is the muscular system doing its job. The muscular system also helps maintain homeostasis by maintaining body temperature which happens when you contract, which is the shortening of a muscle while pulling against the bones, you are releasing heat which is helping regulate your body temperature. Another job that the muscular system has is maintaining

When I was seven years old, I was outside playing catch with a softball with my sister, Katie and my mom. My mom collapsed due to what we believed was the heat due to the temperature being ninety plus degrees, but it turns out this was the start of infinite trips to the hospital.My mom had passed out due to reasons that were unknown at the time. My sister Katie and I ran inside the house and called 911 and told them what happened. My mom was still on the ground. Within ten minutes, the ambulance

In this content am going to be talking and explaining the structure and function of the skeletal system. I will be talking about: Axial skeleton, Appendicular. Also highlighting the different types of bone such as long bones, short bones flat bones, irregular bones and sesamoid bones. I am also going to be talking about how your body is Axial skeleton The axial skeleton is part of the skeleton that has bones from the head and the trunk which are found in the vertebrate, it forms the main axis or

laugh, smile and express many other emotions. But, the most important functions of the muscular system are movement, posture, joint stability and heat production. There are also three major different types of muscle in the body: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. They all play an important role in maintaining homeostasis. Skeletal muscle is what is attached to our skeleton, by tendons. It’s the most common out of the three types of muscle in the body. It is considered a voluntary muscle because we have

Stretching is a physical exercise that aims at a specific muscle/ limb in the body with the purpose of reducing risk of injury and increased flexibility, potentially increasing performance. Stretching is achieved through constant flexing or extending on the muscles in a controlled manner and technique. There are 3 main types of stretches, dynamic: movement while stretching, static: holding a position to stretch and ballistic: using movement to move in and out of stretch. Depending on the type of

Joints and Body Movements Laszlo Vass, Ed.D. Version 42-0014-00-01 Purpose: What is the purpose of this exercise? In this exercise I will exam how joints function and thereby discover how they allow for movement in the body. Joints are where two bones come together. The joints hold the bones together and allow for movement of the skeleton. All of the bones, except the hyoid bone in the neck, form a joint. Joints
