Electromyography In this experiment‚ you will explore the electrical activity of skeletal muscle by recording an electromyogram (EMG) from a volunteer. You will examine the EMG of both voluntary and evoked muscle action and attempt to measure nerve conduction velocity. Written by staff of ADInstruments. [pic] Background A skeletal muscle fiber is innervated by a branch of a motor axon. Under normal circumstances‚ a neuronal action potential activates all of the muscles innervated by

Why We Forget? What is forgetting? Forgetting is the inability of a person to retrieve‚ recall or recognize information that was stored or still stored in long term memory. (McLeod‚ S. A. 2008). In terms of short term memory‚ forgetting is caused by interference between past and new information that most modern accounts that holding on to. In some older models‚ forgetting is explained using a process of passive deterioration of information. Comparing both accounts‚ interference seems to have a better

Steam Distillation of Lemongrass Oil I. Introduction When a mixture of cyclohexane and toluene is distilled‚ the boiling point of these two miscible liquids is between the boiling points of each of the pure components. By contrast‚ if a mixture of benzene and water (Immiscible liquids) is distilled‚ the boiling point of the mixture will be found below the boiling point of each pure component. Since the two liquids are essentially insoluble in each other‚ the benzene molecules in a droplet of

The fundamental question of why people forget has been a surprisingly recent direction of study‚ with German psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus‚ pioneering the studies in 1964 (Passer‚ Smith‚ Holt‚ Andy‚ Ed‚ & Michael‚ 2009). Since then‚ there was time for models and theories on why people forget to develop. Through the course of this assignment‚ key terms are defined‚ current models of memory are addressed‚ and four widely used reasons for forgetting are analyzed and discussed. Furthermore‚ methods

Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to observe the external and internal anatomy of a frog and identify the anatomical structures in order to further understand and compare it to the anatomy of the human body. Describe the digits on each foot. Which pair of feet is webbed? Why? How can you tell the difference between a male and female frog by looking at the forelimbs? The front feet of the frog are webbed which allows it to swim easier and quicker. Webbed feet are a fusion of two or more of the
