We can consider the upper arm posture as the last considerations in determining the posture for doing the c-ring assembly.

    I chose the topic of lupus at the beginning of my science journal project. As I did more research I found the more specific autoimmune disease, systemic lupus erythematosus. The most research was on women who have systemic lupus erythematosus and how their loss of muscle function effects their daily lives. I found this topic interesting because I like to learn about women’s health and what types of effects different diseases have on their bodies. According to Andrew et al. (2015), muscle weakness in women with systemic lupus erythematosus leads to a decline in complete physical function over a two year period.…
