Samantha 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.

other words animal testing. Animal testing‚ also known as animal experiments is the act of using non-human animals in research‚ development projects or scientific experiments. Statistics reveal that‚ each year millions of animals such as dogs‚ cats‚ rats‚ mice‚ ferrets‚ hamsters and monkeys experience physical and mental torture due to scientific practices. Although some believe that these experiments are necessary on grounds of advancement of medicine‚ most people believe that these experiments are

Fatty acids (FAs) can ultimately be degraded through different pathways which include alpha‚ beta‚ and omega-oxidation. Alpha-oxidation occurs at carbon 2 of the chain‚ b-oxidation at C3‚ and omega-oxidation at methyl end of the fatty acid. The location of each mechanism also differs as alpha- oxidation occurs in peroxisomes only‚ beta-oxidation can take place in both peroxisomes and mitochondria. Omega-oxidation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum of the various tissues. The importance of the differentiation

SFA help meet total fat energy needs‚ which are necessary for proper metabolic function. Another (2) advantage to SFA is the increase of HDL cholesterol HDL is important because it removes free cholesterol from extra hepatic tissues. It also transfers cholesterol esters to VLDL or delivers them to the liver: There‚ HDL is degraded

Several methods are available for testing central analgesic activity‚ such as • HAFFNER’s tail clip method in mice‚ • tail flick or other radiant heat methods‚ • tail immersion tests‚ • hot plate methods in mice or rats‚ • electrical stimulation (grid shock‚ stimulation of tooth pulp or tail)‚ • monkey shock titration‚ • formalin test in rats.

Swain and Franklin reviewed clinical trials that measured VO2 max before and after exercise training and found that subjects with mean baseline VO2 max values of 40-51 mL•kg−1•min−1 (∼11-14 METs) seemed to require an intensity of at least 45% oxygen uptake reserve (V˙O2R) to increase VO2 max‚ but no apparent threshold was found for subjects with mean baseline VO2 max <11 METs)‚ although ∼30%V˙O2R was the lowest intensity studied. An experimental study by Liang et al examined the effects of six
