    1.The atria does not perform any contractions since it is directly linked to the SA node. The SA node is being blocked was causes no signals to be sent to the atria muscle‚ resulting in no contraction of it. On the other hand‚ there will be contraction at 40 times per minute for the atrioventricular because this node has its own pacemaker which will allow it to spontaneously contract by depolarizing without any other signal or stimulus--thus‚ even though the SA node signals are blocked‚ the ventricles

    What is Exercise Physiology? Exercise physiology is a scientific discipline that focuses on how an organism responds to exercise. Exercise represents one of the greatest stresses that an organism can encounter. Therefore exercise represents an outstanding model for studying human and animal physiology. Most people are familiar with the study of exercise physiology as it relates to sport performance. However‚ in the last several decades it has become apparent that the study of exercise

    Lab 4: Skeletal Muscle Function Exercise 5: The Length-Tension Relationship Materials and Methods In this experiment I used a frog anesthetized with ms222. The frog’s skin is cut and removed from both the legs‚ the Achilles tendon is cut and the tendon and calf muscle are removed from the lower legs. The femur muscle is also cut. Attached to the legs are femur clamps which are connected to the transducer arm‚ stimulation electrodes are then positioned against the muscle. I plugged the output

    length-tension relationships represent an important part in the function of skeletal muscle. When skeletal muscle is stimulated‚ passive tissue rapidly changes into dynamic tissue which can produce force. Furthermore‚ during this process‚ the length of muscle may decrease‚ increase‚ or remain the same. Moreover‚ the amount of power a muscle can produce depends on its length‚ velocity and stimulation Powers & Howley (2015). Muscle velocity and stimulation are normally in a constant when creating a length-tension

    INTRODUCTION OF MUSCULAR SYSTEM. Muscles tissue do is done by the coordinated contraction and release of millions of sarcomeres‚ tiny structures within the muscles cells. Muscle activity accounts for the most of the body’s energy consumption. All muscles tissues is strong. Most is enduring‚ some of it astoundingly so. Its cells are crowded with mitochondria‚ thousands of little factories constantly turning out molecules of ATP‚ a refined fuel. There are three types of muscles that can be found in our body
