atrophied or they are undergoing atrophy
When the moon appears to be decreasing in size, it is called waning. When the moon appears to be increasing in size, it is called waxing.
iris
When the eye is stimulated by bright light, the circular muscle of the iris contracts, decreasing the size of the pupil.
The muscles that contract to bring two bones closer together are called flexor muscles. These muscles work by decreasing the angle between the two bones, resulting in movement such as bending the arm or leg.
No. Erosion wears mountains down, decreasing their size.
The deep muscles of the human body are generally called intrinsic muscles. The muscles that are closer to the skin are called superficial muscles.
Yes, muscles can temporarily shrink after a workout due to a process called muscle fatigue. During intense exercise, muscles use up stored energy and fluids, causing them to temporarily decrease in size. This shrinkage is usually temporary and the muscles will return to their normal size after rest and recovery.
Increasing the volume of a gas is typically achieved by decreasing the pressure applied to it, as per Boyle's Law, which states that volume is inversely proportional to pressure at constant temperature. Decreasing the number of gas molecules would also lead to a decrease in pressure, potentially allowing for an increase in volume if the container size remains constant. However, decreasing the size of the gas molecules or the temperature would not directly lead to an increase in volume; in fact, decreasing temperature generally reduces the volume of a gas.
Increasing
The opening that is controlled by the muscles of the iris is called the pupil. The iris is responsible for adjusting the size of the pupil in response to different lighting conditions.
The correct order according to decreasing size of structures is organism > organ system > organ > tissue > cell > organelle > molecule.
the arm muscles which are called reflexs. the arm muscles which are called reflexs. the arm muscles which are called reflexs.
