"DO IT AT HOME" Section of Test 2 Julie Jakubowski 1. Tretinoin has been called the anti-aging cream. Since it is applied topically‚ how does it affect the skin? This medication is used to improve the appearance of the skin by reducing fine lines and wrinkles‚ reducing roughness‚ and improving skin color. Tretinoin belongs to a class of medications called retinoids. It works by affecting the growth

the breakdown of damaged muscle tissues resulting in the release of muscle fiber contents into the bloodstream (Patel M.D.). This disease occurs when there is damage to the skeletal muscle. The breakdown products of damaged muscle cells‚ such as myoglobin‚ are harmful to the kidneys and frequently result in kidney damage or even kidney failure. The severity of the symptoms depends on the degree of muscle damage and the degree of the kidney damage‚ if any. The primary muscle damage can be caused by

Factors Controlling Healthy Development Of Muscle And Bone. The food you eat affects every system and function in your body. A well-balanced diet ensures that your body has the raw materials to produce and maintain healthy‚ strong muscles and bones. On the other hand‚ poor dietary habits can produce deficiencies in vital nutrients‚ leading to poor bone and muscle development in children or the damaging of the body’s ability to maintain strong muscles and bones in adults. Protein It is a major

Comparing the Cardiac muscle and the Skeletal muscle Differences Similarities Skeletal muscle is usually linked to bones by structures called tendons. Cardiac muscle is found in the heart. They are both important parts to the body. Skeletal muscle cells are usually arranged into cylindrical fibres with multiple nuclei and can be directly controlled by voluntary nerve signals from the nervous system. Cardiac muscle cells are normally shorter and are linked via gap junctions which allow compounds

What was the smallest current required to produce the maximum (largest) contraction? 4. What happened to the number of fibers contracting as the current was raised from threshold to that required to produce a maximal contraction? 5. Why does varying the stimulus strength affect the twitch force

Intrapartum period Labor and delivery: Definition: labor is the process by which the products of conception are expelled from the body. Delivery refers to the actual birth. Adaptive Processes Defi nition: during latter months of pregnancy‚ the fetus adapts to the maternal uterus enabling it to occupy the smallest space possible. The term Attitude refers to the posture the fetus assumes in utero; fetal lie is the relationship of the long axis of the body to the long axis of the mother. Presentation:

2. FLNB in Skeletal Diseases Mutations in FLNB lead to various skeletal malformations‚ involving long bone‚ joints and vertebra. There were five FLNB-related skeletal disorders been reported so far‚ including spondylocarpotarsal synostosis (SCT)‚ Larsen syndrome‚ atelosteogenesis (AO)‚ boomerang dysplasia‚ and isolated congenital talipes equinovarus. (1) Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome (SCT‚ OMIM 272460) Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome was characterized by the following features:

Let’s start with nutrition. There are hundreds of fad diets out there today‚ however the foundation of a successful nutrition plan begins a healthy calorie controlled diet. You must be eating a consistent amount of daily calories. This intake should be substantial enough to allow the body to build muscle. Undereating is one of

conversion of glucose into glycogen. In positive feedback‚ the body reacts to a change from the normal state by causing an even greater change. Examples of positive feedback: (1) when constrictions in the uterus push a baby into the birth canal‚ contractions in the uterus increase; (2) when a blood vessel is damaged‚ the vessel constricts and chemicals are released to plug and repair the hole.
