    example. Some of the changes you need to discuss are: Increased blood supply‚ increase in muscle pliability‚ increased range of movement and muscle fibre micro tears. Example Answer Increases the range of movement – when we start to exercise the movements of our joints means that synovial fluid starts to secrete within the joints. The fluid becomes less viscous and therefore the range of movement within the joint increases. An example of this in sport is the need for a warm up for a butterfly swimmer

    Light Intensity Experiment: For the light intensity experiment‚ our first set of data illustrated strange correlations between the three tubes placed in front of a light source‚ so the data provided in e-campus was used. The tube that was 24 cm away from the light had the greatest decrease in absorbance over the course of 20 minutes‚ followed by the 30 cm and then the 49 cm light apparatus. The tube that was placed in the dark (wrapped in foil) remained a dark blueish-green color whereas the tubes
