The Boiling Frog Theory on Population Systems thinkers have given us a useful metaphor for a certain kind of human behavior in the phenomenon of the boiled frog. The phenomenon is this. If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling water‚ it will of course frantically try to clamber out. But if you place it gently in a pot of tepid water and turn the heat on low‚ it will float there quite placidly. As the water gradually heats up‚ the frog will sink into a tranquil stupor‚ exactly like one of us in a

The purpose of this experiment is to study the effects of Ca2+ channel blockers in muscle contraction by observing the effects of injecting it in frog legs. Since calcium channel blockers‚ block the Ca2+ channels‚ inhibiting the calcium from binding to troponin‚ which exposes the myosin binding site‚ we hypothesize that the muscle fibers will not be able to contract to the same extent and therefor

In his talk‚ Mr. Vance Vredenberg reiterated that the unusual decline of frog’s population in California was due to a disease called chytridiomycosis in frogs caused by an unusual type of fungus called Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis. This disease mainly target every kind of amphibian that would in turn cause the regression in population of the affected species‚ though some infected species were able to withstand

Results A left gastrocnemius muscle of a frog (L=3.2cm in situ) was used in experiment 1 and 2‚ while a right gastrocnemius muscle of a frog (L=3.4cm in situ) was used in experiment 3. The sciatic nerve of the frog was placed over the stimulatory electrodes covered with a piece of a Kimwipe moistened with Ringer’s solution. The relationship between muscle length‚ force production and velocity of contraction was studied. Force transduced calibration In order to get a more accurate data from force
