Epithelial tissue Covers the body surface and forms the lining for most internal cavities. The major function of epithelial tissue includes protection‚ secretion‚ absorption‚ and filtration. The skin is an organ made up of epithelial tissue which protects the body from dirt‚ dust‚ bacteria and other microbes that may be harmful. Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body. It is made up of cells closely packed and ranged in one or more layers. This tissue is specialised to form the

abuse. In their experiment‚ Anttila et al. (2008) tested if testosterone can regulate the aerobic capacity of skeletal muscles by injecting mice with certain amounts of testosterone and then studying the levels of myoglobin‚ a protein that plays a role in supplying oxygen to mitochondria during exercise. They demonstrated that the myoglobin concentration in skeletal muscles is directly related to testosterone. Therefore‚ an increase in testosterone will allow for more muscular potential. In addition

Exercise reduces levels of cortisol‚ which causes many health problems‚ both physical and mental. Physical exercise is any bodily activity that enhances or maintains physical fitness and overall health and wellness. It is performed for various reasons including strengthening muscles and the cardiovascular system‚ honing athletic

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has become a practical and effective technique in its use to study cognitive function (Jahanshahi & Rotherwell‚ 2000). It has been used to explore the motor-cortex‚ through its visible muscle twitch effect after stimulation‚ and primary visual pathways (Jahanshahi & Rotherwell; Beckers & Zeki‚ 1995). Through this exploration it was found that TMS can be used to create ‘virtual lesions’ in the brain in which cortical processing is disrupted (Jahanshahi & Rotherwell)

However‚ what we do with our bodies also affects what we can do with our minds‚ thus physical fitness can improve not only body health but also mental health. On the one hand‚ as we all know‚ exercises not only improve muscle and strength but also strengthen bones and reduce body fat. Regular physical activity
