Determining the Latent Period 1. Click Clear Tracings to erase the oscilloscope display. The voltage should be set to 5.0 volts. 2. Drag the 200 msec button to the right edge of the oscilloscope. 3. Click the Stimulate button once‚ and allow the tracing to complete. 4. When you measure the length of the latent period from a printed graph‚ you measure the time between the application of the stimulus and the beginning of the first observable response(increase in force). The computer can’t “look ahead

What is Exercise Physiology? Exercise physiology is a scientific discipline that focuses on how an organism responds to exercise. Exercise represents one of the greatest stresses that an organism can encounter. Therefore exercise represents an outstanding model for studying human and animal physiology. Most people are familiar with the study of exercise physiology as it relates to sport performance. However‚ in the last several decades it has become apparent that the study of exercise

As described in the Constitution of the United States‚ the federal Government is organized into 3 branches: Legislative‚ Executive‚ and Judicial‚ and is maintained through a system of checks and balances. The three branches work together to ensure no particular branch gains too much control. For example‚ the Legislative branch‚ makes laws‚ the Executive branch approves or vetoes these laws‚ and the Judicial Branch evaluates said laws against the Constitution. The Legislature‚ or Congress‚ is the

WEEK 1: AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Anatomy is the study of the structure and shape of body and parts‚ while physiology is the study of how the body work and function‚ their relationship is seen for example in the heart‚ there are two valves (anatomy) and these two valves help the heart pump blood. 2. The atom is the smallest particle of an element. An example is carbon ( C ) which is the building block of life. A group of atoms could form for example‚ a water molecule

Introduction Cardiovascular Dynamics and the Cardiovascular Physiology experiments both have multiple goals. The first experiment aims to understand how blood flow‚ pressure gradient‚ and resistance relate to one another. To understand this‚ resistance and contributing factors‚ such as vessel radius‚ viscosity‚ and vessel length must be studied. The effects of vessel radius and stroke volume on the ventricular pump should also examined. The experiment also calls for an understanding of cardiovascular
