The eleven body systems consist of the skeletal system‚ muscular system‚ nervous system‚ circulatory system‚ immune system‚ endocrine system‚ digestive system‚ excretory system‚ respiratory system‚ integumentary system‚ and the reproductive system. The skeletal system is the foundation to the body containing 206 bones and movable and immovable joints. The skeletal system has many important functions such as providing shape and form‚ supporting and protecting

decline in muscle function contribute to eye strain and blurred vision? When light is refracted into the eye through the lens it hits a point called the fovea centralis‚ which focuses the light with the use of cones and sends a message to the brain. When the cilliary body doesn’t help the lens to focus and achieve the message signal to the brain‚ we get double vision. 4. What are the possible reasons for Annie’s condition? lack of oxygen in the bloodstream which would cause muscle crams and

will be lower‚ due to vasoconstriction and blood being directed towards active skeletal muscle instead. When we are exercising there is more blood in our arterial circulation. Where did this blood come from and how did it get there ? When the cells within the body are more metabolically active‚ they use more fuel‚ such as glucose and oxygen. Therefore during exercise‚ specifically in parts like the skeletal muscles‚ the blood flow through the tissues is dramatically increased during contraction

and those with seizure disorders (Michaud‚ 2013). Although severity varies‚ these disabilities are characterized by motor impairments resulting from a neurological injury or deficiency. This condition often results in muscle weakness‚ decreased joint range of motion‚ abnormal muscle tone‚ and/or decreased balance and coordination (Michaud‚ 2013). Often‚ these individuals are limited in their ability to participate in age-appropriate activities such as mobility‚ self-care‚ and communication. Many

both muscle and nerve diseases. Recording the electrical activity of the muscle cell membrane with a needle electrode inserted in the muscle‚ the motor unit potential (MUP) can be recorded. Electromyography is performed using an instrument called electromyograph‚ to produce a record called electromyogram. This represents the summated electrical activity of action potentials of all of the muscle fibers making up that motor unit. Motor unit is the smallest functional unit of the skeletal muscle

supported by the skeletal system which is made up of bones‚ ligaments and tendons. The skeletal system works with the muscular system to help the body move. It shapes the body and also protects organs. Inside bones we found the Marrow‚ which is soft‚ fatty tissue that produces red blood cells‚ many white blood cell and other immune system cells. The muscular system consists of about 650 muscles and is responsible for the movement of the human body. The body is made up of three types of muscle tissue: skeletal
