Nerves
What is an example of a stimulus and a possible response in humans?
For e.g. perception is a complex process of response to stimuli..when cat sees(stimulus) that we are moving towards her she gets scared and runs away(response). Or when rain starts(stimulus) we suddenly wants to hide ourselves from umbrella or by other means(response).
What does the all or none response mean dealing with muscles?
The All or None Muscle Theory is a theory that states that if said muscle is contracted, all of said muscle is contracted. In Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning written by CSCS, they state,"There is no such thing as a motor neuron stimulus that causes only some of the fibers to contract."
What does the medical term contracture mean?
Contractility is the ability of a muscle to shorten in response to a stimulus.
What does lymph transport depend on to function?
Lymph transport depends on the movement of adjacent tissues, such as skeletal muscles.
What is the function of an efferent neuron?
nerve fibres which carry the commands from the CNS out to (muscles, organs, glands) for a motor output or response.
What is the function of shivering?
Shivering is an involuntary muscular response from the body, triggered by cold. The "shivering" muscles are trying to internally generate heat, to help keep you warm.
What is the system's reaction to the stimulus?
Stimulus detected by receptors, transmitted to brain via afferent neurones, info processed at brain, efferent neurones, then to affector such as muscles.
The cell that initiate the stimulus for contraction of the heart muscles are located in the?
The SA Node in the right atrium
Function of each organ of muscles?
There is no such thing as an "organ of muscles".
Muscles or glands that bring about a coordinated response?
Effectors is the term used for glands or muscles that result in a coordinated response. Receptors are what receive stimuli from the outside environment.
What effect does resistance exercise have on muscle mass?
Resistance exercise exerts particular muscles, and as a response, the muscles hypertrophy, causing them to grow larger and increase their work capacity.
