    Principal tissues in the human body Colorado Christian University Human Anatomy/Physiology BIO201A Principal tissues in the human body The human body is contains four main tissue types. Tissues are a group of similar cells‚ formed in the embryo‚ that perform a specific function or group of functions. According to Patton and Thibodeau (2013)‚ “There are four major or principal tissue types: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscle‚ and nervous” (p. 8). Each of these tissue types differ in the roles

    Muscle contractions happen when muscle fibers are stimulated‚ which can cause one of many types of contractions. Isometric contractions‚ which means that tension happens in the muscle but there is no change in muscle length‚ therefore there is no movement of the muscle itself. An example of Isometric contractions would be strength training‚ such as holding a weight still‚ which happens in the biceps brachii. The biceps brachii the gets more tension‚ but the muscle length stays the same. As for isotonic

    The muscle physiology of skeletal muscle was observed by using electrical‚ physical‚ and neural stimulations of an isolated gastrocnemius muscle from Rana pipiens. The gastrocnemius receives signals from the action potentials of the sciatic nerve. The muscle contraction is caused by the binding of a neurotransmitter once the action potential reaches the neuromuscular junction. Stimulation of the muscle and the sciatic nerve allows for recording and measuring of these properties. We observed twitch

    Background:  Connective tissue nevi (CTN) are hamartomas in which components of the dermis (collagen‚ elastin‚ or glycosaminoglycans) are altered.  Appear as firm‚ asymptomatic‚ skin-colored plaques composed of closely grouped papules with an orange peel-like surface texture.  Previous classifications made based on which dermal component was found in excess‚ genetic patterns of inheritance‚ and +/- organ involvement fail to explain all reported cases. o Example: Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome

    four major tissues in the human body. One of the major tissues is the epithelial issue that covers the surface of the body. It helps line the body cavities and organ cavities. There is no extracellular matrix between the cells that are located in the epithelial tissues because they are closely packed. The epithelial is also composed of one or more layers of packed cells. The other major tissue is the connective tissue‚ which is more diverse and abundant‚ compared to the other tissues. The function

    First of all we have to defreniate between the musle stenght and muscles power. Musle stenght: Muscular strength defined as the ability of a muscle /group of muscles to contract with maximal force. Muscular strength describes how strong a muscle is or how much force it can exert. Exercise professionals often measure muscular strength by determining the maximum weight a person can lift at one time. There are 2 components to gain muscles strength; 1) The neural component (short-term). 2) The hypertrophic
