What is the point of attachment of a muscle to a bone that is less movable called?
tendons and ligaments^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^No.... Actually Tendons connect the muscle to the bone, and Ligaments connect bone to bone together. So although this may sound correct it is not. Yes both can move, but it is not the answer that any professor would be looking for. The correct answer is Muscle Insertion..
Two ways muscles attach to bone?
I think you may be talking about origin and insertion points which are the two points of attachment for a muscle. The origin is attached to the immovable (or less movable) bone. The insertion is attached to the movable bone. The insertion always moves towards the origin.
What does Myasthenia gravis lead to?
It is characterized by fatigue and muscle weakness that at first may be confined to certain muscle groups, but then may progress to the point of paralysis
What is a example of skeletal muscle?
The biceps - any muscle attached to the skeleton.
What is the stationary point to which a muscle attaches to the body known as?
Ligaments attach bone to bone. Tendons attach muscles to bone.No, the origin is the attachment of a muscle to a stationary bone. You may have commonly heard of this as a "fixed end".
A movable pulley can?
It can pull something that may be very heavy too.This is the benefit of a pulley that it can pull heavy things because it has pulley that increases the amount t=of the pull or force that is being applied.
How do muscles move?
Muscles move by contraction. When the cells shorten, the muscle pulls on the ligaments that connect the bones and the movable body parts. Depending on how a skeletal muscle acts, it may be classified as a flexor (decreases angle to joint) or an extensor (increases angle, straightening the joint).
What are three muscles describe them each?
Smooth muscle - controlled by the autonomic nervous system; may either be generally inactive and then respond to neural stimulation or hormones or may be rhythmicCardiac muscle - found in the heart, acts like rhythmic smooth muscle, modulated by neural activity and hormonesSkeletal muscle - move us around and responsible for most of our behavior; most attached to bones at each end via tendons
What is the purpose of movable sideboards on Dutch ships?
The movable sideboards on Dutch ships are called leeboards and are used to increase the performance of sailing ships by helping the boat to point slightly higher on a tack. Pointing slightly higher on a tack can help reduce the amount of time needed to sail from one point to another point as the ship can sail in a closer straight line between two points. The leeboards also allow the centerboard to be shorter if wanted, which may be helpful in shallower Dutch canals.
Are trigger points causing muscle ache?
One option for treating muscle ache caused by trigger points may be a trigger point injection (or TPI). It can help relax the muscles. For more information go to, http://www.webmd.com/pain-management/guide/trigger-point-injection.
What is the relationship between amplitude of muscle response and voltage of stimulus applied?
The relationship between the amplitude of muscle response and the voltage of the stimulus is generally linear. As the voltage of the stimulus increases, the muscle response increases in amplitude up to a certain point. Beyond that point, further increases in voltage may not significantly increase the muscle response amplitude or could lead to muscle fatigue or damage.
Why don't I get attached to guys?
You may get attached to boys because you like them. You may also find yourself becoming attached to boys because they are nice or friendly towards you.
