1.) What muscle did the winging of the scapula suggest to be paralysed? Why does this sign occur?

When a message comes into the brain from anywhere in the body‚ the brain tells the body how to react. the brain as a central computer that controls all bodily functions‚ then the nervous system is like a network that relays messages back and forth from the brain to different parts of the body.

Stimulus-Dependent Lab A motor unit is a motor neuron and the muscle fiber it controls. A whole muscle is made up of hundreds of motor units that are handled by different motor neurons that react at different levels of stimulation. The electric shock acts as an action potential by changing the membrane permeability allowing the sodium and potassium ions to pass through. At different levels of stimulation the motor neurons stimulate a motor unit and the more stimulation the more motor units become

The dark brown skin tone is next‚ with an average mean rating of 10.72‚ then the brown skin tone with an average mean rating of 10.44‚ and last is the pale (light) skin tone‚ with an average mean rating of 10.06. Thus‚ I have to reject my second hypothesis. However‚ being that the tan skin tone is in the lighter category‚ there is still some truth defining lighter skin tones to be more

disease characterized by low bone density‚ which can lead to an increased risk of bone fractures1. Osteoporosis is closely linked to bone remodeling2‚ an adaptive process which maintains bone tissue integrity throughout one’s lifetime3. This process is carried out by specialized groups of bone cells known as basic multicellular units (BMUs) which dictate the processes of coupled bone breakdown and bone formation.3 During osteoporosis‚ this bone turnover rate accelerates and bone remodeling is shifted towards
