this gene in myocardial tissue is SERCA2a, and it is responsible for removing around 75% of the Ca2+ ions from the cytosol of muscle cells in the heart. SERCA2a acts like a pump that sits on the edge of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and protrudes out into the cytoplasm of the cell (Hajjar & Njeim, 2010). The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is an organelle that is unique to muscle cells. Its primary purpose is the storage, release, and reuptake of Ca2+ ions from the cell’s cytosol, and this in turn…
Overall exercise psychology is an application of psychology to promote, maintain, enhance, and explain parts of exercise. Although there are technically two separate forms of exercise, physical activity and exercise.

The uptake of oxygen into muscles is what facilitates muscle contraction. Oxygen that is obtained through breathing by the lungs is transported to the rest of the body, as well as the heart by means of haemoglobin. The rate of liberation of oxygen from haemoglobin has an effect on the quantity of oxygen available in the muscles for a muscle contraction to ensue. The higher the oxygen concentration in the muscle the greater the force of muscle contraction. Temperature has an effect on the…
Marfan syndrome is a strange disease. It is genetic, and it is very rare. Sadly, it makes leading a normal life harder. On the plus side it can be treated. Marfan syndrome is a disease that affects your connective tissue. Organs and eyes are not held in the correct position and fingers, toes, arms, and legs seem too long for their body. It also can limit the gripping ability in their hands. This disease is not contagious. It is inherited genetically because of nitrogen bases matching…
5 minutes recording the breathes every minute. Introduction: The respiratory system responds to the demand of exercise by making us breathe faster as the muscles in our body require more energy when put under more physical exercise. When humans breathe the body converts oxygen in the air into energy, which is then transported to the muscles by red blood cells, which allows us to exercise for a longer period of time. The respiratory system recovers after exercise by making us continue to…
inflamed) and myositis ( a rheumatoid's case where muscles are inflamed). Steroids are also used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, gout or Sjogren’s syndrome.

of our muscles? And if so how could this improve the results of our muscle exercise routine? One wise thing to do when deciding the muscles exercise technique we are going to adopt is to find out the type of structure a muscle is made of, muscles as we know are formed by either a slow-contract structure or a fast-contract structure, for example a muscle made of high level of slow-contracts structure reacts more favorably to high repetitions, so high level of slow-contracts structured muscles…
wrestler from the 2 past year and it was finally his time to rise in the spot light. From the way it looked he has matured a lot since last year when the team was full of senior leader. He also looks like he has developed a lot physically with additional muscle gains and height. The wrestler I observed told me grew 2 inch’s over the past summer and has been lifting weights. From my calculation the cause of the grow spurt was the act of puberty due to rapid to result in physical development. He…
