two separate types of mass fat-free mass which is comprised of all the body’s non fat tissues and body fat‚ fat free mass includes bone‚ water‚ muscle‚ and tissues. Our body fat includes essential fats‚ such as lipids‚ and nonessential body fats‚ these fats make up around five percent of total body weight for men and up to 12 percent for women. Nonessential fat is found mainly within fat cells and adipose tissue‚ below the skin and surrounding major organs. The amount of nonessential fat stored in

Adipokines Felician College Adipokines and their effects on cardiovascular disease Adipocytes release hormones and other molecules that act on nearby tissues and travel through the vasculature to distant sites‚ such as the brain‚ skeletal muscle‚ and liver (Stehno-Bittel‚ 2008‚ p.1). Under conditions of normal weight‚ those signals help the body to suppress hunger‚ utilize glucose‚ and decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease (Stehno-Bittel‚ 2008‚ p.1). However‚ under

Polymethylmethacrylate‚ or PMMA for short‚ is a polymer consisting of the monomer methyl methacrylate that has been around since the 1930s1. PMMA is a polymer that has a high impact strength‚ is scratch and shatter resistant‚ and is relatively lightweight1. Because PMMA can also be formed into a transparent thermoplastic and has a glass transitions temperature of 130oC‚ this polymer served as a glass substitute in its early uses1. Other beneficial characteristics of Polymethylmethacrylate include

Cartilage and bone are both stiff connective tissues which form an essential structural component of the body of animal organisms‚ including human beings. However‚ they are also quite different in both composition and function. Bones are extremely hard‚ dense tissue which provide a supportive frame for the body ‚ as well as serving as production and storage centers for cells and minerals‚ whereas cartilage is a more flexible tissue found in more specific locations of the body‚ essentially midway
