Pulse.
Systole is when a chamber of the heart (i.e. atrial vs. ventricular systole) is contracting. Diastole is when a chamber of the heart is relaxing. Without qualifying which chamber it is usually assumed to mean the left ventricle.Systole refers to when the heart is contracted and diastole refers to when the heart is relaxed.
Cavity of the neural tube, it is the origin of the ventricles of the brain. Expansion within cerebral hemispheres (lateral ventricles 1-2), diencephalon (third ventricle), and medulla oblongata (fourth ventricle) forms chambers (ventricles) which are lined with ependymal cells.
contraction
Contraction of the diaphragm causes it to flatten and move downward, increasing the volume of the thoracic cavity. This expansion of the chest cavity leads to a decrease in pressure within the lungs, allowing air to rush in and fill the lungs with oxygen during inhalation.
Metal joints, such as expansion joints or control joints, are often placed between concrete sections to allow for movement and prevent cracking. These joints help to accommodate the expansion and contraction of the concrete due to temperature changes, thereby reducing the likelihood of cracking and maintaining the structural integrity of the concrete pavement or structure.
Pulse
What you feel in your wrist is a pulse. The pulse is caused by the heart pumping blood round your body.
Pulse
The general opposite of contraction is expansion, or possibly inflation. For muscles, the opposite of contraction is relaxation.
A heartbeat is the contraction and relaxation of the heart muscle, while a pulse is the rhythmic expansion and contraction of an artery as blood is pumped through it by the heart.
Expansion is the antonym for contraction.
Expansion and Contraction - 1903 was released on: USA: January 1903
No, we use expansion and contraction to tell temperature(thermometer).
Allows for expansion and contraction of various systems
to allow for the thermal expansion or contraction
The general opposite of to contract is to expand.In terms of biology, an opening would dilate (widen) as opposed to contracting or narrowing in size.For a muscle, the opposite of contract would be relax.
The opposite of expansion is contraction. For an activity where expansion is simply an increase, the opposite can be reduction.
