------------------------------------------------- LIST OF MUSCLE INJURIES Properly functioning muscles perform only one duty‚ contraction. Muscles enable the body to sit‚ to move and to stand upright. They are attached by way of tendons to bones. Their contraction is controlled by electrical signals that can either be voluntary‚ such as when a person decides to stand up‚ or involuntary‚ as with the muscles that expand and contract the chest to control breathing. Muscles are made of thousands of muscle fibers. Knowing the types

Cardiac This is an involuntary muscle‚ found solely in the walls of the heart‚ as well as in the walls of the blood vessels. This sort of muscle has similarities with the skeletal muscles‚ because it is striated. Furthermore‚ it has slight similarities to the smooth muscles‚ because its contractions are not under conscious control. On the other hand this type of muscle is highly specialised. It is under the control of the autonomic nervous system‚ however‚ even without nervous imput contractions

When it comes to muscle contraction‚ contraction takes place in the muscle fibers. Muscle fibers are the basic building blocks of the muscle and what allow muscles to contract. They appear as long cylinder cells that contain several nuclei. Contraction happens when the muscle receive signals from the nervous system and the Neuromuscular Junction obtains the muscular exchange where the synaptic bulb and the muscle fibers connect. muscle fibers are composed of myofibrils‚ which contain contractile

This paper will help understand chameleons and how they have evolved to adapt to their surroundings. It will also discuss their physical features inside and out. Myths and facts will be revealed‚ as well as a few comparisons between sexes. Though there are many species of chameleons
