a. In this lab we studied the time taken between a stimulus and the response of six different participants‚ particularly using a visual stimulus and then a response by pressing the event marker. The baseline data was recorded with the participant listening to no music and then another set of data with that same participant listening to slow music playing in their ears. b. According to the lab manual‚ a visual signal is detected by bipolar cells synapsing directly with ganglion cells-receptor cells

States of Muscle Dystrophy and relation to Dystrophin Muscle dystrophy branches into many different kinds of muscle disease including myositis‚ multiple sclerosis and fibromyalgia. What makes it so important is that muscle dystrophy can be found in patients as young as infants and as old as adults. Also‚ some types of muscle dystrophy can be progressively disabling. Muscle diseases are present in infants and children because many of the diseases are hereditary. For example‚ Duchenne muscular dystrophy

2017 Motor Unit Recruitment and Muscle Fatigue Lab Introduction Human skeletal muscles are made up of hundreds of cylindrically-shaped cells called myofibers‚ and they are bound together by connective tissue. These muscles are stimulated to contract by somatic motor nerves‚ or motor neurons‚ that carry signals in the form of nerve impulses from the brain or spinal cord‚ to the skeletal muscles. Although a motor neuron can innervate several fibers‚ each muscle fiber can only be innervated by one

light intensity can affect the rate of photosynthesis. Hypothesis I think that the further away the light source is the smaller the rate of photosynthesis is. This is because there is a further distance for the light to each the plant in order for it to photosynthesise. Although the closer the light source is‚ the more photosynthesis‚ the light source could also kill or damage the Elodea (type of pondweed) because it could become too hot and denature its cells. But because light intensity is also

Thato’s muscle had remained unused for 6 weeks. Once the cast is removed and he steps down from the examination table‚ his muscle begins to contract. Due to this 6 week period of rest‚ the muscles initial strength of contraction may be significantly low as compared to its strength a few minutes later. The strength of contraction of his muscle increases to a plateau‚ which is termed the staircase effect. Due to his muscles low initial strength of contraction‚ Thato loses his balance and falls. 1
