Topic 1: I believe using abbreviations can truly help communications between health care professionals‚ because it makes it easier to convey what you are trying to say. For example‚ instead of saying or writing down “cardiopulmonary resuscitation” you could say “CPR”. This also helps speed up the process when a transcriptionist copies down a report; they don’t necessarily have to write out the full meaning and the physician who reads the report will still have a full understanding of what it

Muscles are a Band or bundles of tissue in either the human body ‚ or animal body that allow contraction for movement. There are many muscles in the body. It is stated that there are over 650 muscles in the body ‚ and is said that there are possibilities of up to 840. Your whole body is a muscle. You have Muscles in your head‚ arms‚ legs‚ just about anywhere you can think of and as we progress in life and become of age our muscles may grow and get stronger ‚ or may deteriorate.

Intramembranous ossification forms membrane bone from fibrous connective tissue membranes‚ and results in the cranial bones and clavicles. ~Movements of Muscle~ 1) Flexion: bending a joint to decrease the angle between two bones or two body parts.

Thermal Expansion and Contraction Most of the matters‚ without some exceptions‚ expand with the increasing temperature. When you give heat to matters; speed of its particles increase and distance between them also increase which results in the increase of the volumes of matters. All expansions occurs in volume of the substance however‚ sometimes some of the dimensions of them expand more with respect to others. In this case we neglect the less expanded ones and assume expansion like linear expansion

Muscular System: Muscle Metabolism 1. List the three roles of ATP in muscle contraction: 1. _energizing the power stroke of the myosin cross bridge________________________ 2. _disconnecting the myosin head from the binding site on actin at the conclusion of a power stroke_________________ 3. _energizing the calcium ion pump; transporting calcium___________________ 2. The potential energy in ATP is released when the terminal high-energy bond is broken by a process called _hydrolysis________________________

Hutchins 10/27/15 Vitamin D Deficiency Regarding Muscles Vitamin D deficiency has been tied to mainly bone pathologies. Recent research shows that the effects of Vitamin D span further than just affecting bones and particularly cause muscle weakness. Vitamin D is responsible for aiding in the absorption of other minerals‚ such as calcium. Calcium is a key ligand in muscle contractions‚ thus‚ Vitamin D indirectly can effect muscle contractions.
