The example of the processes which is under voluntary control are urination and defecation. Voluntary control is an act that is normally controlled by an individualâ??s will.

This is called a motor unit.

a concentric muscle action.

The structure that attaches bone to muscle is called a tendon.

Myorraphy is the surgical suturing of a muscle. As with hernias, people require the torn muscle to be sown back together for proper healing.

Because the goal of the procedure is to place a plastic catheter into the vein. If you insert the needle/catheter vertically you will go through the vein. If you angle on insertion once placement in the vein is confirmed you can slide the hollow catheter off of the needle into the vein. The veins used for most IV's normally lie just under the skin. For this reason a shallow angle of insertion is used.

according to my anatomy and physiology teacher when you frown you use your facial muscles the specific types i never learned.

This the diaphragm. When it contracts it lowers and air can rush into the lungs. When it relaxes air leaves.

I am a male, and I have been shaving my arms, as well as my hands and fingers, for many years. No one has ever commented about it, and I enjoy the clean, smooth skin.

They do give the ability to move but not strength.

Some muscles (skeletal muscles) will not contract unless stimulated by neurons; other muscles (smooth & cardiac) will contract without nervous stimulation but their contraction can be influenced by the nervous system. Thus, the nervous and muscle systems are closely interconnected.

The movement of the body using large muscles primarily involves gross motor skills, which include actions like walking, running, jumping, and lifting. These movements are facilitated by major muscle groups such as the legs, back, and core. Large muscles contract to generate force, enabling the body to perform activities that require strength, stability, and coordination. Such movements are essential for daily activities and overall physical fitness.

The circulatory system = the heart + the blood vessels. The heart is a muscle, but the muscle fibers are slightly different to skeletal muscle. Arteries has a thin layer of muscle cells that surround them so that they can constrict or expand the blood vessels in order to regulate blood pressure.

the Achilles tendon is the area on the back of ur foot, between the ball of ur foot and ur ankle. i guess maybe the calf muscle is sometimes called Achilles tendon b/c in cats and dogs, the Achilles tendon is part of the calf muscle

Muscles that control eye, eyelid movements, facial expression, chewing, talking, swallowing are often affected. The muscles that control breathing and neck and limb movements may also be involved.

The gluteus set of muscles are used only to sit down on, so they could probably be considered the laziest set of muscles in the entire body.

in general musculature of our body e.g. arms, legs, hands, etc.

The Neck Muscle

the bicep contracts in a concentric contraction which means the muscles has shortened. remember muscles can only pull they can not push. also the bicep curl can be described as elbow flexion and when the weight is lowered is called elbow extention.

hope it helps

Muscles are attached to bones.Muscles cause movement when they contract and relax.Muscles cause movement when they contract and relax.Muscles are found in pairs round a joint.

A human skeleton is made up of bones and cartilage. There are three types of bone cells:

Osteoblasts . . . these cells create permanent bone cells called Osteocytes. Osteoclasts are cells that destroy old Osteocytes, or transfer bone minerals to other body parts. In addition to the bone cells, the bones are made up of a tough, rubbery substance called Collagen. In normal bones, various minerals - calcium, potassium, and so forth are spread throughout the Collagen to give it stiffness and hardness.
