Best Answer

Rectus abdominis is another term for the "six pack" muscles. These muscles respond very well to specific activities. Sit-ups, push through, and crunches will all help develop your rectus abdominis muscles.

Why does rectus femoris become active in leg extension?

The rectus femoris becomes active in a leg extension because one of the actions of the rectus femoris is hip extension, as well as knee extension. The rectus femoris crosses both the hip and knee on the anterior side of the body. When the leg is extended it is one of the primary movers, whether it be straight leg extension, in which case it is the rectus femoris, illium and psoas muscles. In knee extension the rectus femoris works in conjunction with the other 3 quadriceps. However, in the case of a seated leg extension the rectus femois is less active, due to it already being shortened for the hip extension.

What is the true relationship between pH and enzyme action?

The enzyme has an optimal point of pH at which the enzyme works best. For example a catalase enzyme works best in a pH of 7. When the pH changes it denatures the enzyme causing it to not be able to react with the substrate.


What is the effect of pH upon the relative enzyme activity?

Different enzymes work best at different pH. This is refered to as the ideal pH for the enzyme. For example, the digestive enzyme trypsin works best at an acidic pH while alkaline phosphatase works best at a basic pH. Therefore, enzyme activity varies with pH and this variation depends on the enzyme being studied


What is the name of the rib muscles that contribute to breathing?

Ribs are bones, but lungs contribute to breathing and they are a muscle organNo, your Lungs ARE NOT A MUSCLE. Your diaphragm is the main muscle in inhalation, which opens your lungs (works by creating a negative pressure in your lungs i.e. the pressure outside your chest cavity is more than the pressure in your lungs, causing air to enter your lungs).However, during forced inhalation and exhalation your intercostal muscles and rectus abdominus muslces play a part in exhalation (forcing air out). scalenes lift up your rib cage to allow maximum inhalation.

Why enzymes activity slows down and eventually stops above 35 degree C and below 0 degree C explain why?

the normal working speed of human enzymes is 37 degrees c.If enzymatic activity below the 37 degrees c it works slow and if enzymatic activity is above the 37 degrees c its works very high.
