Amanda Fallon Professor Jed Wolfson Anatomy and Physiology 1 October 27‚ 2011 Rhabdomyolysis: Disease of Muscular Breakdown Rhabdomyolysis is 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

Unit 3 Lecture Study Guide 1. List the 4 primary tissue types and give the general characteristics and functions of each one. Epithelium- The epithelium protects us from the outside world. Skin‚ absorbs. Stomach and intestinal lining‚ filters. The kidney‚ secretes. Forming of glands‚ closely attached to each other forming a protective barrier‚ always has one free surface open to outside the body or inside an internal organ‚ has no blood vessels but can soak up nutrients from blood vessels in connective

D)rectus abdominis muscle. 2)The patient with cerebral palsy was described as having ataxia. This means that the patient: A)has slow skeletal muscle movements of his upper extremities. B)has slow‚ purposeless writhing of his hands. C)walks with an uncoordinated gait. D)has muscle jerking and spasms when

Steelman‚ DHSc(c)‚ MPH‚ MS‚ RLATG A course assignment presented to Kaplan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the SC121 curriculum September 4‚ 2014 Anatomy and Physiology are studied together but differ in many ways but go hand in hand in studying the human body. Anatomy is the study of the relationships of the body structures. Anatomy was first studied by dissections

Skeletal muscle moves because we want it to. It is controlled voluntarily (consciously). There is 2 types of contraction Isometric: As the muscle contracts‚ it remains the same length whilst the tension increases in an attempt to overcome the opposing force. Example: Holding a glass of water still in front of you. Isotonic: As the muscle contracts its length changes whilst the tension remains constant or develops to overcome the opposing force. Example: Lifting a glass of water to your mount and

Histology This lab focused on the examination and identification of tissues that make up the organs of the body. The tissues are divided into four main categories: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle‚ and neuronal. Click on the thumbnail images to see a larger version. All of the photomicrographs were taken using the 40X objective (400X magnification)‚ which is the highest magnification we use in this lab. Other resources include linked web pages on the "Resources" page and the histology tutorial

Progression-increase how long and how many times an exercise or workout is done. Overload- Stretching and workouts until body says no (muscular exhaustion) Reversibility- continuing to do stretches and workouts to not go back to where started Tedium-switching exercises and stretches

Inflammation- Inflammation is the bulging of skin‚ organs‚ or other body parts due to fluid buildup caused an injury. The fluid rushes to the injured area and that is what makes the puffiness. 2.

(NCBI)‚ depending on the task males or females were more or less resistant for the muscle group being used. Valley Center High School physiology students conducted experiments on muscle size and strength and muscle fatigue. With this in mind‚ the data the students collected from these labs and other sources shows how muscle size and sex have an impact on an individual’s muscle fatigue resistance. First‚ the muscle size of an individual determines how long they can withstand certain types of physical
