Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to use the muscle tension and the electrical activity in the dominant and non-dominant forearm muscle‚ the flexor digitorum superficialis‚ to analyze the determinants of muscle tension and fatigue‚ and the reasons as to why differences may occur between the dominant and non-dominant arm. The generation of tension in a muscle is determined by the major type of motor unit being recruited‚ as well as the rate in which action potentials are being fired. A subject

Comparison of Muscle Proteins to Infer Evolutionary Relationships of Mammals‚ Fish and Birds Abstract This experiment used electrophoresis to examine the makeup of muscle proteins from two mammals (cow‚ Bos taurus; bear‚ Ursus americanus)‚ two aves (chicken‚ Gallus gallus; turkey‚ Meleagris gallopavo)‚ and two fish (King Salmon‚ Oncorhynchus tshawytscha; Albacore Tuna‚ Scombridae unclassified). The hypothesis was that as species have diverged evolutionarily‚ the makeup of their muscle proteins

I had found that where the temperature was above 40Ëšc the enzyme did not work as efficiently‚ even with the extra energy‚ as they had become deformed.
