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

My name is Eddie Curlin II and I’m doing my research paper on Techniques of Massage therapy. The techniques that I learned on my own being a massage therapy student is Deep tissue massage‚ Hitol Massage‚ and Shiatsu. I based my research paper on these three because they are very interesting to me and I like to them for my mom. The reason why I say that is because she has carpal tunnel in her hands and whenever they hurt I try to heal them using massage therapy so it works and now I will

Title: Grip Strength and Muscle Fatigue I. Purpose/Hypothesis: In this lab the subject will grip on a scale that measures the amount of force being put on it. We will observe the change in hand strength during continuous grip over time. Then we will also measure hand strength during rapid‚ repetitive gripping. I believe that hand strength will weaken during a continuous grip more than if you were to keep a repetitive grip. II. Procedure: 1. Connect the Hand Dynamomenter to LabQuest and select

Introduction: Hurler Syndrome (MPS-I)‚ otherwise classified as Mucopolysaccharidosis‚ is the most severe form of this disease and is caused by cells being unable to break down dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate during regular metabolism(Laberge‚ 2010). The build up of these two by-products disturbs regular cell functionality and this may cause damage within the tissues of organs (Laberge‚ 2010). Two major symptoms found within an individual with Hurler Syndrome are skeletal deformities and

Introduction: In Musculoskeletal system‚ during large amounts of physical activity the muscle will encounter fatigue‚ as a result of depletion of muscle glycogen or because of interruption of blood flow during contractions of the muscle as well the lack of oxygenation it provides to the muscles. To test this theory we will compare the time it take for the index finger and the muscles around it to reach fatigue after a variation of excises. We will compare these results in Mann (2014) to see how
