1. Compare the portrayal of Katrina in Salvage the Bones to what you saw of the hurricane in the news. Which aspect of the storm’s devastation does this novel bring to life? What does Esch’s perspective add to your understanding of Katrina’s impact? When Hurricane Katrina occurred‚ I was an eleven year-old child with little to no concern about the current events happening around me. Nevertheless‚ I was still saddened by the hurricane that killed almost 2‚000 people

INVESTIGATION OF PHYSIOLOGICAL & MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SKELETAL MUSCLE USING FROG GASTROCNEMIUS AIM The purpose of this experiment was to demonstrate the physiological as well as mechanical properties of skeletal muscle using the gastrocnemius muscle of a frog by exploring five different investigations namely the single twitch‚ the graded response‚ the relationship between muscle length and tension‚ muscle tetanus‚ and muscle fatigue. These individual experiments aim to explore the way muscles

In Salvage the Bones by Jesmyn Ward‚ the audience is introduced to the struggles of an African American family in Mississippi trying to get everything together before the terrible storm‚ Hurricane Katrina crashes onto the coast and wipes everything out. This heartfelt novel introduces to the audience the theme of parenthood/motherhood‚ the role that the absence of a mother/father had on the children‚ the role of basketball and the affect it had on the family‚ the role of dog fighting and how it related

Case Study 1. Dunchenne muscular dystrophy is a genetic disorder due to progressive weakness and degeneration of muscle cells over time‚ discovered by Guillaume Duchenne. 2. What you may notice under microscopic view is a mass majority of adipose tissue‚ rapid growth of Endomysium connective tissue‚ and deterioration of muscle cells 3. Being diagnosed with the disease would show pelvic muscle being effected first. Early signs of muscular dystrophy would be fatigue or weakness in the gluteal

Analyze the bone markings of the vertebrae and distinguish among the cervical‚ thoracic‚ and lumbar vertebrae. Vertebrae possess a vertebral body‚ which is anterior in position which are the major weight bearing components of the bone. Attached to the posterior of the body is a posteriorly projecting piece of bone known as a pedicle. There is a pedicle on the left and right hand sides. The pedicle is continuous with the lamina. The lamina from the left and right sides join in the midline and form

Frog Skeletal Muscle The aim of this experiment is to explore the basic physiological principles of skeletal muscle using the isolated frog (Rana pipiens or Xenopus laevis) gastrocnemius muscle. Students will dissect a double-pithed frog. Then‚ they will connect the muscle to the Force Transducer to measure twitch recruitment‚ effect of stretch‚ muscle summation‚ muscle tetanus‚ and muscle fatigue. Written by staff of ADInstruments. Experiment Contents 1. Instructor’s Reference (this

A contraction in skeletal muscle is caused by specialized intracellular thin and thick filaments‚ actin and myosin‚ sliding past each other. Contraction and relaxation of skeletal muscle bring about body movements. These body movements are voluntary and facilitated by the somatic nervous system. Near contact between somatic motor neurons and the muscle fibers are referred to as neuromuscular junctions. It is at the neuromuscular junctions that neurons are able to transmit a signal to the muscle fibers
