Do muscle cells expand?
Muscle cells can increase in size through a process called hypertrophy, which typically occurs with resistance training or increased physical activity. This enlargement results from the synthesis of more proteins, leading to larger muscle fibers. However, muscle cells do not "expand" in the sense of stretching; instead, they grow by increasing their mass and volume. Additionally, muscle cells can also increase in number through a process called hyperplasia, although this is less common in humans.
Why does exercising increase muscle mass?
Because the muscle cells that are in the muscles break away from the rest of the muscle cells when exercising and are brought back together when protein is taken in. This causes muscle mass to increase
What is the medical term meaning mass of tissue made of the diseased cells during cancer?
A mass of diseased cells is a tumor.
What is a mass of cells that can be malignant or benign?
It is called a tumor.
Why does the molar mass increase by more than one unit when the atomic number increase by one unit?
Because atomic mass is the sum of both atomic number and number of neutrons in an atom.
What is the trend in atomic mass going down a group?
The atomic mass will increase. As you go down a group in the periodic table the atomic number rises, this increase in the number of protons is accompanied by an increase in the number of neutrons to stabilise the nucleus, and both together lead to an increase in atomic mass.
On the periodic table the number of proton plus neutron is called the?
The name for it is Mass Number of an Isotope.
What is it called when your muscles get stronger?
hypertrophy - increase in muscle mass, more mass stronger muscle
What is the total number of protons and neutron's in an atom called?
mass number = protons + nuetrons
What is the thickened mass of cells on the blastocyst from which the baby will develop is called the?
The thickened mass of cells on the blastocyst from which the baby will develop is called the inner cell mass (ICM). The ICM gives rise to the fetus and the tissues of the body.
What is the mass number minus the atomic number called?
Nucleon Number (total number of protons and neutrons)
What do you call a permanent increase in body size and dry mass of an organism from an increase in cell numbers?
The term for a permanent increase in body size and dry mass of an organism resulting from an increase in cell numbers is "hyperplasia." Hyperplasia refers to the growth of tissues or organs due to an increase in the number of cells, rather than an increase in cell size. This process is essential for the development and growth of organisms, allowing them to increase in size and complexity over time.
