     chronic constipation is infrequent bowel movements or difficult passage of stools that persists for numerous weeks or longer.  Constipation is normally defined as having fewer than 3 bowel movements a week.  although occasional constipation may be very commonplace‚ a few human beings revel in continual constipation that could intervene with their potential to move about their daily responsibilities. chronic constipation may also cause excessive straining to have a bowel motion and different signs

    calcitriol. 2. Kidneys: the kidneys filter out wastes from the blood these wastes are then liquified into urine. Ureters: The ureters funnel the urine into the Urinary Bladder. Urinary Bladder: the urinary bladder stores the urine until muscle contraction forces the urine out. Urethra: the urethra is where the urine is forced out of the body. 3. 4. Renal Capsule: a smooth‚ transparent‚ fibrous membrane. Helps against trauma and maintains kidney shape.

    system is to make the body move‚ a signal travels along neurons nerve cells from the brain to the spinal cord. There‚ "lower motor neurons" pass the message on to the muscles. The end of every lower motor neuron releases a chemical‚ which is received by receptors in the muscle tissue. Once enough of the chemical has been received‚ the muscle is able to move. Sometimes this process malfunctions and a person develops a neuromuscular disorder. Symptoms include muscular weakness‚ spasms‚

    oxygen (i.e.‚ aerobic)‚ muscle cells can contract repeatedly without fatigue.  During anaerobic or non-oxygen conditions (i.e.‚ higher intensity exercise)‚ muscle cells must rely on other reactions that do not require oxygen to fuel muscle contraction.  This anaerobic metabolism in the cells produces waste molecules that can impair muscle contractions.  We call this deterioration in performance fatigue. Fatigue causes you to experience added discomfort and weakening muscles.  Eventually you will

    Biology coursework Hypothesis: I predict that the longer you are contracting the peg the slower you will become when doing so‚ this is because of muscle fatigue. And when taking two seconds between each contraction the speed will decrease at a much slower rate than if you are doing the contractions as fast as you can. The science backing up my hypothesis: The higher the intensity of any type of exercise the more lactic acid is produced in a certain amount of time‚ this is by a means of anaerobic

    build muscle strength. Unlike protein‚ creatine does not help to repair muscles or build muscle but allows the body to have more energy to work harder. Creatine is naturally found in the body and in foods such as seafood and red meats.1 Many studies have been conducted in order to scientifically show whether or not creatine really works. A common misconception is that creatine stimulates muscle growth. Creatine is not a steroid‚ however‚ it is a useful supplement that can help to increase muscle mass

Thermoregulation‚ a homeostatic process‚ is responsible for initiating and controlling the physiological responses helping to keep Joel warm. His body temperature is being monitored by his hypothalamus which has triggered his sympathetic vasomotor center to initiate vasoconstriction of the dermal blood vessels in his extremities. The nervous system is also alerted by the hypothalamus to induce muscle contraction in order to generate internal
