What else can I help you with?
A drug that decreases peristalsis would be one that?
A drug that decreases peristalsis would likely be an anticholinergic medication, which blocks the action of acetylcholine in the gastrointestinal tract. This inhibition can slow down the contractions of the smooth muscle in the intestines, reducing peristalsis.
What is the muscle that acts as the opening between the vagina and uterus?
It is the cervix.
What kind of muscle controls a circular opening?
A sphincter muscle controls a circular opening in the body. It serves to regulate the passage of substances through the opening by contracting or relaxing. Examples include the anal sphincter and the sphincter muscles in the digestive system.
A thickening of existing muscle fibers is called?
Muscle hypertrophy is the thickening or increase in the size of existing muscle fibers. This process occurs in response to resistance training or overload, leading to an increase in muscle strength and size.
How much does a anus weight?
Nothing. The anus is the opening of the digestive tract. The opening is closed by the sphincter which is a strong ring of muscle.
What is it called when a muscle decreases in size due to lack of exercise?
When a muscle decreases in size due to a lack of exercise, it is called disuse atrophy.
Muscular endurance decreases muscular strength bone density muscle size and muscle density?
False
Does Muscular endurance decreases muscular strength bone density muscle size and muscle density?
false
True or False muscular endurance decreases muscular strength bone density muscle size and muscle density?
False it increases them!!!!
Why is it better to lose inches rather than kilograms from your body?
As fat is lost, you should be replacing it with muscle. Muscle is more dense, so while the size decreases as you convert fat to muscle, the mass should stay about the same. Hence, losing inches in size is far better than losing kilograms in mass.
The muscle decreases in muscle length during contraction but tension is the same?
Isotonic contraction
What happened when you pull a muscle?
the muscle you pulled hurts and decreases the way your body moves.
What decreases muscle build?
Lack of protein and nutrients.
How do you spell sphinctor?
SPHINCTER : the muscle that controls the anal opening, or more generally any tissue or muscle around the opening to an organ.
When a muscle undergoes atrophy in response to disuse what happens?
When a muscle undergoes atrophy due to disuse, it experiences a reduction in size and strength as muscle fibers shrink and the overall muscle mass decreases. This occurs because the body conserves energy by breaking down proteins in the muscle, leading to a decline in muscle cell size and number. Additionally, the neural connections that stimulate muscle activity may weaken, further contributing to the loss of function. Over time, prolonged disuse can result in significant impairments in mobility and physical performance.
What decreases across the periodic table?
Atomic size decreases across a period
What happensto the size of ice when it frezes from water?
Its size decreases.
