Once considered abundant‚ but because of change and reduction of its natural environment and hunting‚ this rodent population is in decline. This framework made it to feature as "Vulnerable" species on the official list of Brazilian fauna extinction Threatened (Brazil‚ 2008) and the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources - IUCN. Their inclusion in these lists reveals ample opportunity

FOUR STROKE PETROL ENGINE The four stroke petrol engine works in the following way:- Intake stroke In this stroke‚ fuel and air is allowed inside the cylinder by the downward movement of the piston which involves the opening of intake valve. Compression stroke Piston moves upward again in this stroke and the fuel and air mixture is compressed. Power stroke In this stroke power is generated when the spark plug ignites the fuel and piston moves down‚ this helps the engine to start initially

to the actin filament forming a cross-bridge. The myosin pulls the actin towards the centre of the sarcomere creating a power stroke. A specific chemical reaction needs to occur in order for the myosin to acquire the sufficient energy to pull the actin filament. A fact from Chemistry gives a greater understanding of the chemical reactions that occur during a power stroke thus giving a greater understanding of the filament interaction from a molecular perspective.
