Currently‚ frog populations around the world are declining. Due to the nature of their life cycles and physiology‚ frogs are very sensitive to environmental changes. Frogs are born in the water as tadpoles. Frogs move onto land for their adult lives. This makes them vulnerable to changes in aquatic habitat availability. This also makes them vulnerable to changes in terrestrial habitat availability. Their aquatic habitats are drying out‚ in areas that are becoming more prone to drought. Frogs are also

Muscle contractions are the way that humans are able to move within the enviornment that surrounds them. To be able to understand the complexity of movement‚ there needs to be an understanding of the gross and micro-anatomy muscle contraction‚ and an understanding of the physiology of muscle contraction. This paper will provide an explaination of both the anatomy and physiology of muscle contraction. Anatomy of Muscle Contraction There are three types of muslces within the human body: skeletal

Activity 1 – The Muscle Twitch and Latent 1) Define the terms skeletal muscle fiber‚ motor unit‚ skeletal muscle twitch‚ electrical stimulus‚ and latent period. Skeletal Muscle Fiber: Skeletal muscle cells that are composed of hundreds to thousands of individual cells that produce muscle tension. These fibers are what move our bodies and generate muscle tension/force that enables us to have manual dexterity. Motor unit: consists of one motor neuron and all of the skeletal muscle fibers that it

Muscles attached to scapula: Levator scapulae origin is transverse processes of C1-C4‚ insertion at superior angle of scapula‚ it moves scapula and flexes neck. Pectoralis minor’s origin is ribs 3-5 and insertion at coracoid process of scapula‚ it depresses scapula and elevates ribs. Rhomboids Major and Rhomboids Minor’s origin at spinous processes T1-T4‚ insertion at medial border of scapula‚ they move scapula. Serratus anterior’s origin is at ribs 1-9‚ insertion is at medial border of scapula

The Skeletal System is the framework of the body‚ consisting of 206 bones as well as a network of tendons that is made of tough band of fibrous collagen tissue connecting a muscle to bone‚ ligaments connecting bones to joint and cartilage that allows some flexibility of movement. The skeletal system serves 4 functions: (1) Giving the body its shape (2) Protecting the vital internal organs (3) Allowing for movement (4) Storing minerals and producing blood cells The skeletal system has 6 basic components:
