    Understand Your Fats and Fiber Jennifer Taylor SCI/241 December 6‚ 2012 Jeff Mundt Understand Your Fats and Fiber Bad fats are saturated and trans fats. Saturated fats are mostly in meats‚ dairy products and tropical oils. Saturated fat raises both bad cholesterol and good cholesterol‚ while trans-fat only raises bad cholesterol. This makes trans fats technically worse than saturated fats. The better fats would be monounsaturated and polyunsaturated. Monounsaturated will lower your cholesterol

    HOW TO GAIN MUSCLES. Introduction. The assignment topic touches on a very important part of the human body a muscle. This is a soft tissue found on most animals and is made of cells that contain protein filaments of actin and myosin that slide past one another‚ producing a contraction that changes both the length and the shape of the cell. It function to produce force there location on the body or according to the functions and roles they play. They are the cardiac muscles (muscles covering the

    and unfamiliar exercise‚ particularly which involves eccentric muscle actions can cause muscle damage and lead to delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS)‚ which may impair performance. This is due to the high force features of eccentric contraction (Starbuck & Eston‚ 2011). It can also cause muscle shortening‚ swelling and loss of strength in the muscles. Injuries commonly occur during eccentric loading of the muscle; that is‚ when the muscle is contracting while it is lengthening. (LaStayo‚ et al.‚ 2003)

    Fiber Optic Safety Rules 1) Keep all food and beverages out of the work area. If fiber particles are ingested they can cause internal hemorrhaging 2) Do not smoke while working with fiber optic systems. 3) Always wear safety glasses with side shields. Treat fiber optic splinters the same as you would glass splinters. 4) Never look directly into the end of fiber cables until you are positive that there is no light source at the other end. Use a fiber optic power meter to make certain the

    Slow-Oxidative (Type I) Muscle Fibres Shelby Daye Skeletal muscles are classified as striated and voluntary. They are found in muscles that maintain low-intensity contractions for long periods without fatigue. A single skeletal muscle cell is referred to as a muscle fibre. There are three types of muscle fibres found in the human skeletal muscle system including slow-oxidative fibres‚ fast-oxidative fibres and fast-glycolytic fibres. These three fibres are each defined by their biochemical capacities1

    Advantages and Disadvantages of Fiber Optics An optical fiber is a thin and flexible fiber that carries the light between the two ends of the fiber. Optical fibers are widely used in Fiber Optic Communications‚ which is the transmission over longer distances at higher bandwidths than other communications. A fiber optic communication system consists of three components: an optical transmitter‚ a fiber optic cable‚ and an optical receiver. The optical transmitter converts electrical signal to

    HOW MUSCLES GET THE ENERGY THEY NEED TO WORK 1) Muscle needs energy to contract and as stated previously the ‘universal energy currency’ of living systems is ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This is largely produced within mitochondria‚ organelles which are often referred to as the ‘powerhouse’ of the cell. The ATP that results is used to provide the power for the muscle fibres to contract. Contraction itself (i.e. actual shortening movement) occurs when a bond is broken between ATP and one of its
