The musculoskeletal system includes bones‚ joints‚ skeletal muscles‚ tendons‚ and ligaments. The response this exercise does to the body is increased blood supply for muscles to work for longer and harder when exercising‚ muscle pliability will also develop as regular muscles are being used and developed making them stronger overall. Increased respiratory rate‚ increased fuel metabolism‚ increased oxygen consumption and also increased muscle temperature these are some of the features that will

and moving The human body is only able to assume it’s different posture and maintain its structure due to the skeletal system. The skeletal system is made up of bones which have an outer hard cortical layer and an inner soft trabecular layer made of cancellous bone. Within some long bone is the all important marrow from where all the blood cells originate after maturation. The skeletal system can be divided into 2 groups: 1. Axial skeleton: The bones here include the skull and bones of the vertebrae

Cells combine to form four primary tissues: - Epithelial tissue - Connective tissue - Muscle tissue - Nerve tissue BACKGROUND:A tissue is a group of cells that have a similar shape and function. Different types of tissues can be found in different organs. In humans‚ there are four basic types of tissue: epithelial‚ connective‚ muscular

Muscular Dystrophy Muscular Dystrophy is a general term for a number of hereditary‚ degenerative disorders affecting skeletal muscles‚ and often other organs. It is a genetic disease that causes constant degeneration of the muscles. There are over 30 kinds of Muscular Dystrophy. Some forms of Muscular Dystrophy affect involuntary organs like the heart. This muscular disease can be seen in during infancy or may not be known until much later on in life. Muscular Dystrophy is different for each person

"The Politics of Muscle" by Gloria Steinem is an essay arguing the difference in strength between men and women. Steinem starts her essay by stating how she grew up in a generation where women didn’t participate in a lot‚ if any‚ sport activities. She goes on to say that she believes this is the reason why women of her generation believe that it’s not what the female body does‚ but how it looks. Steinem feels that women always seemed to be owned in some degree as the means of reproduction. She believes

legs than normal because you are overworking them. Your muscles and all your body organs need more energy and oxygen; this is because your body is working more than usual. Your body needs to do many things such as sweat‚ which helps you cool down‚ and to get energy to all of your cells in your body to help you carry on exercising‚ if your body didn’t do this‚ and then you wouldn’t be able to carry on exercising. During acute exercise your muscle pliability increases which allows a greater range of movement
