Actin is a thin filament and myosin is a thick filament, as shown on the following diagram, and it is the interaction between these two filaments that causes a muscle to contract and shorten.

Muscle tissue is responsible for most types of body movement. I. Types of muscle: A. Striated muscle - skeletal musculature, striated in appearance under microscope. Cells are unbranched and are multinucleate syncytia. These muscles are capable of voluntary, quick, forceful contractions.


Learn About Muscle Tissue
Visceral muscle contracts slower than skeletal muscle, but the contraction can be sustained over a longer period of time. Organs of the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, digestive system, and reproductive system are lined with smooth muscle. This muscle can be described as rhythmic or tonic.


Skeletal Muscle â Anatomy and Fibre Types
1. Slow twitch fibres (Type I): Slow twitch fibres contract slowly but can contract repeatedly over long periods. They have a good blood supply, hence they are âred fibresâ, and are suited to endurance activity using the aerobic energy system which relies on oxygen from the blood for the supply of energy.


MUSCLES AND MUSCLE TISSUE
MUSCLES AND MUSCLE TISSUE. Muscle is composed of fibers, nerves and connective tissues and account for over 40% of the body weight. The fibers contract to produce tension on the associated tissues or tendons. Muscle tissue is enclosed in facia, which in turn is attached to other structures including ligament. There are three types of muscle tissues : skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscles. Muscle tissue provides a) posture and body support b) locomotion and c) heat production. Muscle tissue is examined with respect to function and types of muscle, structure and mechanism of contraction and attachments.


-
Muscle Tissue. Muscle tissue is made of excitable cells that are capable of contraction. Of all of the different tissue types (muscle, epithelial, connective, and nervous), muscle tissue is the most abundant in most animals.

â¢ Isometric Contractions: Tension but no shortening of the muscle. occurs. Energy is still used! â Example:contractions that serve to keep the body fixed in position as in 1. maintaining posture, 2. maintaining balance, 3. fixing a proximal joint so a. distal joint may move, 4. maintaining muscle tone.


At what age do adolescents start to get acne?
Girls typically start to get acne when their hormones kick in (approximately 11 to 13 years old), which is about the time that they start their period.Boys start to get acne at the age of approximately 12 years, with a range of 9 to 15 years old.As most girls will attest, boys on average mature later than girls. Early on in the onset of teen acne, the main lesions are blackheads and whiteheads.

Senecaâs âMedeaâ differs from the earlier âMedeaâ of Euripides in several respects, but most particularly in the characterization and motivations of Medea herself. Euripidesâ play begins with Medea wailing and crying out to her nurse about the injustices done to her, content to consider herself merely a pawn of the gods and willing to suffer the repercussions and ramifications.

Thus, caution should be used when making inferences or statements about the states' true values based on a ranking of the estimates. As an example, the estimated total (average, percent, ratio, etc.) for State A may be larger than the estimates for all other states. This does not necessarily mean that the true total (average, percent, ratio, etc.) for State A is larger than those for all other states. Such an inference typically depends on --among other factors-- the size of the difference(s) between the estimates in question, and the size of their associated standard errors.

Tetanus shots: Is it risky to receive 'extra' boosters?
Vaccination is the best way to prevent tetanus â a serious disease caused by a bacterial toxin that affects the nervous system. Tetanus bacterial spores can enter your body through any cut or scratch. But deep puncture wounds, such as from stepping on a nail, are most susceptible to tetanus infection.


-
Over time, protection from tetanus decreases, so older children need to get a booster shot. It has a full dose of tetanus and lower amounts of diphtheria and pertussis. All people between the ages of 11 and 18 are advised to get the booster, preferably around 11 or 12 years old.


Preventing Tetanus Infections - Topic Overview
Tetanus is a disease caused by a bacterial infection. The bacteria make a toxin, or poison, that causes severe muscle spasms. Tetanus can be very dangerous, but you can get a shot to prevent it. Tetanus is also called lockjaw because muscle spasms in your jaw make it hard to open your mouth. Tetanus also causes seizures and makes it hard for you to swallow or breathe.


-
If you've been injured, you may be wondering whether you need to get a tetanus booster shot. You will need a tetanus booster shot if: 1  Your wound was caused by a âcleanâ object, but your last tetanus shot was over 10 years ago.  Your wound was caused by a âdirtyâ object and your last tetanus shot more than 5 years ago.


-
If you're an adult, get a Td (tetanus and diphtheria) booster shot every 10 years to stay protected. Since some people may lose the protective antibody levels after 5 years, a booster vaccination is recommended if you get a deep, contaminated wound and haven't had a vaccination in more than 5 years.


Tetanus shots: Is it risky to receive 'extra' boosters?
It's usually OK to receive an extra booster of the tetanus vaccine. This is especially true if you're being treated for an acute injury, such as a deep cut or puncture wound, and you can't recall exactly when you had your last tetanus shot.


Overview
Signs and symptoms of tetanus appear anytime from a few days to several weeks after tetanus bacteria enter your body through a wound. The average incubation period is seven to 10 days. Common signs and symptoms of tetanus include: Spasms and stiffness in your jaw muscles (trismus)


Overview
When to see a doctor. See your doctor for a tetanus booster shot if you have a deep or dirty wound and you haven't had a booster shot in five years. If you aren't sure of when your last booster was, get a booster. Or see your doctor about a tetanus booster for any wound â especially if it might have been contaminated with dirt, animal feces or manure â if you haven't had a booster shot within the past 10 years or aren't sure of when you were last vaccinated.

Although the vast majority of bacteria are harmless or beneficial, a few pathogenic bacteria can cause infectious diseases.n biology, a pathogen (Greek: ÏÎ¬Î¸Î¿Ï pathos âsuffering, passionâ and -Î³ÎµÎ½Î®Ï -genÄs âproducer ofâ) in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease, a term which came into use in the 1880s.

The most common non-pathogenic bacteria found in water is iron bacteria. Iron bacteria can be readily identified by the red, feathery floc that forms overnight at the bottom of a sample bottle containing iron and iron bacteria.ot all types of bacteria are harmful. Many organisms found in water are of no health concern since they do not cause disease. Biological contamination may be separated into two groups: (1) pathogenic (disease causing) and (2) non-pathogenic (not disease causing).


Comparatively Speaking: Pathogenic vs. Non-pathogenic Bacteria
The terms pathogenic and non-pathogenic are often are applied to various microbes. By definition, a pathogen is a specific cause of a disease, while a non-pathogen is considered harmless.In reality, the distinction is not always clear.In 1890, the German physician Robert Koch formalized the criteria to classify bacteria as pathogenic.(See Koch's Postulates).y definition, a pathogen is a specific cause of a disease, while a non-pathogen is considered harmless.

Does anyone have a great remedy to remove a spike that has been beaten down and has nothing to grip with the tool or gain leverage on to get out?! I hate when I get too lazy and wear spikes down to where I struggle and develop tennis elbow trying to change 'em.


OU: Clearing Up Some Facts With Defog
With this set, Latias works as an excellent supporter. Draco Meteor is a great way to deal sizable damage in a pinch, and she won't mind the Special Attack drop too much, as her main role is Defog support, anyway.


Spikes
PokÃ©mon with Magic Guard are also unaffected. Rapid Spin and Defog remove the effects of Spikes. Rapid Spin removes Spikes from the user's side of the field, while Defog removes Spikes from the opponent's side of the field. In Generation V, Spikes can be Reflected with Magic Coat.

Best way is to go buy a good spike wrench, one with a big handle. That gives you something to actually grab on to when you try to get the thing out. When things are bleak, I usually grab a plyers and get as solid a grip as possible to muscle it out. That's rare, but does happen. Here's another tip that works.


-
A good spike wrench with a big handle is a must. Also, if you really are having a hard time, be sure to use the two spike portion of the wrench (if that makes sense). If that with a lot of pressure/force while turning doesn't work, then I've had to get out the needle nose pliers.


Spikes (move)
Flying-type PokÃ©mon, and PokÃ©mon with Levitate, are immune to this damage (unless they are affected by Gravity, are holding an Iron Ball, or were Baton Passed an Ingrain). Any PokÃ©mon under the effect of Magnet Rise or Magic Guard ability are unaffected by the damage. The move Rapid Spin removes Spikes around the user. The move Defog will remove Spikes around its target.


OU: Clearing Up Some Facts With Defog
BW came around and had a few mechanic changes, one of them being Defog removing the opponent's screens and such, but while it gained the power to remove hazards, it only removed the hazards that you set down; it was counter-productive, to say the least.

According to Dr. Lawrence Koblinsky, a professor of forensic science at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, low copy number DNA profiling, used in the UK on DNA fingerprints, typically uses only 5 to 20 cells.nstead of swabbing the fingerprint off the surface of the paper, DDC scientists cut the fingerprint section from the paper, which was used for DNA extraction. DDC has found that it is easier to obtain DNA from a cut section of paper rather than a swabbed section of paper.

The amount of DNA associated with a fingerprint will vary from person to person and can vary within the same person. Low Copy Number DNA Profiling. STR DNA, which is used for human identification, is extracted from nucleated cells.The ability to obtain reliable DNA profiles from fingerprints depends on the number of nucleated cells collected from the fingerprints.The more cells there are in a stain or on a surface, the more DNA there will be. If there are very few cells available, it is referred to as low copy number DNA profiling..nstead of swabbing the fingerprint off the surface of the paper, DDC scientists cut the fingerprint section from the paper, which was used for DNA extraction.

Secondly it means we can determine what the bands of our test DNA mean by comparing them to the reference material. Sometimes the reference DNA is called the standard reference material (SRM) and we commonly used SRM2390 (for RFLP), SRM2391a (for PCR) and SRM 2392 (mitochondrial DNA) in DNA fingerprinting.  So the skinny answer is that DNA standards are used to assure the quality and comparability of the test performed.n most cases DNA fingerprints are used in identifying crime suspects. If there are fingerprints left at a crime scene then DNA fingerprints are used to attempt to identify t â¦ he suspect.

A biopsy is performed to look for a disease or condition such as an infection, inflammation, or cancer. Some commonly biopsied organs include bone marrow, liver, kidney lymph nodes, skin, esophagus, stomach and other parts of the digestive tract, and muscle tissue.


-
What It Is. A biopsy is a test that's performed to examine tissue or cells from a part of the body. It can be done by cutting or scraping a small piece of the tissue or by withdrawing a sample of tissue with a needle and syringe.


Who Performs Biopsies?
The Women's Health Resource. Medical Doctors (MD) or Doctors of Osteopathy (DO) usually perform biopsy. Biopsy is routinely performed both on an outpatient basis and an inpatient basis. For example, during an examination a dermatologist (doctor who deals with conditions of the skin) may perform a quick biopsy of a suspicious mole or mark on the skin, to determine if the region is malignant or benign. Surgeons typically perform excisional (surgical) biopsy and open biopsy.


Muscle Biopsy
A muscle biopsy is a procedure that removes a small sample of tissue for testing in a laboratory. The test can help your doctor to see if you have an infection or disease in your muscles. A muscle biopsy is a relatively simple procedure.


Muscle and Nerve Laboratory
Muscle and Nerve Tissue in the Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disease. The experienced staff of affiliated neuromuscular pathologists and histological technicians provides muscle, nerve and skin biopsies to patients who need further assessment, when clinical neuromuscular findings are limited.


Muscle Biopsy
There are two different ways to perform a muscle biopsy. The most common method is called a needle biopsy. For this procedure, your doctor will insert a thin needle through your skin to remove your muscle tissue. Depending on your condition, the doctor will use a certain type of needle.


Muscle Biopsy
Your doctor may order a muscle biopsy for various reasons. They may suspect you have: 1  defects in the way your muscles metabolize, or use energy.  diseases that affect blood vessels or connective tissue, such as polyarteritis nodosa (which causes the arteries to become swollen)


Muscle and Nerve Laboratory
Specimens are accepted Monday through Friday â skin biopsy kits and shipping services are provided at no charge. Muscle, nerve and skin biopsies are performed by specialists trained in neuromuscular pathology.


Muscle and Nerve Laboratory
Muscle biopsies are performed to evaluate the skeletal muscles for diagnosis and management of various neuromuscular disorders. Muscle disease may be associated with elevated CPK levels, muscle weakness, muscle atrophy and muscle pain with exercise. The biceps or quadriceps are often selected for sampling, but other muscles may be biopsied depending on symptoms. Local anesthesia is typically used for muscle biopsies.


Muscle Biopsy
A muscle biopsy is performed if you are experiencing problems with your muscle and your doctor suspects an infection or disease could be the cause. The biopsy can help your doctor rule out a certain condition as a cause for your symptoms. It can also help them make a diagnosis and initiate a treatment plan.


The Three Plant Tissue Systems
Schlerenchyma cells. -develop thick secondary walls-heavily lignified-dies once lignified-protoplast can no longer take up nutrients or carry out gas exchange-walls remain as a protective structural support-cell types include sclereids and fibers.


Plant Basics
Photosynthesis is the process that allows plants to take energy from the Sun and create sugar molecules. As with all of biology, there are exceptions to the rule and you will learn that not all plants survive through photosynthesis. Some plant species are parasites.


How-To: Create a Simple Houseplant Wicking System
Method Two. Step 1: Wrap the wick loosely around the base of the plant, and bury its end in the dirt. Step 2: Place the free end of the wick in a bowl of water that is a tiny bit smaller than the width of the plantâs pot. Step 3: Set the plantâs pot in the bowl of water.


Plant Basics
Plants also have cell walls that are made of cellulose. In the cells tutorials we explained that all cells have a membrane but plants have an additional cell wall made from cellulose. Cell walls serve as support structures by protecting individual cells and creating a larger structure for the entire plant.


The Three Plant Tissue Systems
-porelike openings between guard cells-carbon dioxide (for photosynthesis) enters plants via stomata-water vapor and oxygen exit via stomata.


plant structure bi
1 The plant body consists of two basic parts--- the shoot system and the root system. 2  Shoot system is above ground and includes organs such as leaves, buds, stems, flowers, and fruits. 3  The functions of the shoot system include photosynthesis, reproduction, storage, transport, and hormone production.


Plant Basics
If you're not a microbe and you're not an animal, you are probably a plant. There are about 300 thousand known species of plants. Because plants adapt so well to almost any climate, scientists needed a way to organize the hundreds of thousands of species. In the same way there is a system of classification for animals, there is also a system of classification for plants.


The Three Plant Tissue Systems
Specialized Role of parenchyma cells. 1) Photosynthesis-large number of chloroplasts develop 2) carbohydrate storage 3) short-distance transport of solutes (common in tissues that secrete nectar/H20) 4) mitotic division produce the new cells that heal wounds in plant parts.


The Three Plant Tissue Systems
-resists water loss and helps fend off attacks by microbes-coats all external plant parts except the very tips of the shoot and most absorptive parts of roots. -roots regions have little or no cuticle.
