How can muscles be made to increase insize?

Nearly all physically activities increase muscle mass overtime, but strength training activities such as weightlifting are obviously the most effective. The muscle fibers are slightly torn by lifting, as they re-grow with the aid of protein, they become bigger and stronger, this is called hypertrophy.


Activities such as swimming and running are most likely to stimulate development of what type of muscle fibers?

Slow, fatigue-resistant fibers


What substance gives color to objects such as paint hair and fibers?

pigmaent


What skeletal muscle fibers that are used for endurance activities have a large quantity of a-creatine-phosphate b-glycogen c-mitochondria d-anaerobic enzymes c-stored APT?

The creatine phosphokinase is the skeletal muscle fibers that are used for endurance activities.


What type of exercise do we use Fast twitch muscle fibers?

Strength and power exercise like weight lifting requires the explosive release of energy yielded by fast-twitch muscle fibers. Slow-twitch muscles are involved in endurance activity.


What was the cotton gin use for?

A machine that separates the seeds, seed hulls, and other small objects from the fibers of cotton.


How does lifting weigh increase the size of muscles?

It promotes your growth hormones to spread out over the worked muscle. Your muscles swell so, therefore work your small muscle groups first. Lifting weights tears muscles fibers during exercise. When the body is a rest particularly when asleep, your body goes about repairing these tears bigger and stronger than before to be able to cope with the amounts of weights you are lifting, there for the need to lift heavier weights to tear the fibers all over again.


When might you use slow-oxidative fiber and when do you use fast-glycolytic fibers?

Slow Oxidative: These muscle fibers twitch at a very slow rate and are very resistant to fatigue. The peak force exerted by these muscles is also very low. Slow muscle fibers have a lot of oxidative enzymes but they are low in ATP activity. Slow oxidative fibers are used for aerobic activities Fast-glycolytic fibers: Some muscle fibers can contract at a fast rate and produce a large peak force while being resistant to tiring even after many cycles. These fibers are have a large ATP activity and are high in oxidative and glycolytic enzymes. These fibers are used for anaerobic activities that need to be sustained over prolonged intervals of time.

An area of body insensitve to a pinprick would involve injury to what aspect of the nerve root?

You are speaking of sensation and sensation travels in the dorsal root.   The fibers within that root that carry pin-prick sensation would most likely be the A-delta fibers


Can you convert swimming laps into walking steps?

no, within your muscles are slow and quick twitch muscle fibers, activities such as running and walking use quick twitch muscle fibers while swimming uses slow twitch muscle fibers


Which type of crime is least likely to be solved with the use of fiber evidence?

Crimes that involve complex financial fraud or cybercrimes are least likely to be solved with the use of fiber evidence. Fiber evidence is more typically associated with physical crimes where trace materials such as clothing fibers, carpet fibers, or rope fibers are left at a crime scene.
