This is a subject of much debate, but the general consensus is that fewer, heavier reps are better for muscle growth. Many say about 5 reps is optimal, but there are some who advocate just one rep.

What is allee principle all about?

The Allee Principle presents the idea that for every population of organisms within the ecosystem there is some intermediate optimal density within its optimal density range at which the population will best flourish. At the higher end of the density range, intraspecific competition (competition within a population/species) becomes heightened and resources become scarce, where as at the lower end of the optimal range we near the critical minimum density for the population at which genetic drift becomes probably due to population loss, thus some middling population density will be the most desirable for the population.hope this helps! :)

Protein would be most helpful for muscle growth. Bone density is affected most by calcium intake...which you can get from milk or a pill.


Are some people naturally more prone to muscle growth than others?

Yes. Muscular growth is partially dependent on genetic factors. Even so, such people need to take in nutrients to support muscle growth, because the body cannot magically create them from nothing. Most healthy, balanced diets already have the appropriate nutrients in some quantity.

Why is only LB broth used for molecular biology work?

An LB medium isn't the only medium used in microbiology; it depends on the microbe and what the microbiologist is trying to achieve. But for general growth of bacteria (usually E. coli), the LB broth is most commonly used because the nutrients allow for optimal growth.
