Answer:
The Aplysia withdrawing it's gills is demonstrating a gill and siphon withdrawal reflex (GSWR) phenomenon
Explanation:
The hill and siphon withdrawal reflex (GSWR) is involuntary and a defensive reflex. This reflex causes delicate siphon and gill to be retracted when an animal is disturbed.
A two-component reflex is triggered when weak or moderate stimulus is applied to a siphon or the mantle shelf. These two components consist of two reflex acts, the siphon-withdrawal reflex and the gill-withdrawal reflex. Together they often form a reflex pattern with short latency that protects the animals gill and siphon to potentially threatening stimuli.
An habituation in an Aplysia californica for example is which is an Aplysia gills is when a stimulus is presented continously to an animal and there is a progressive decrease in response to that particular stimulus.
Answer:
When skeletal muscles are trained by adding physical stress to them, this is called progressive resistance training (PRT).
Explanation:
During PRT, muscles are exercised against an <em>overload or resistance</em>; the overload is gradually increased in order to allow muscles to adapt. This allows for progressive strength increases over time.
Muscle fatigue is defined as a reduction in the ability to produce force due to exercise. This comprises:
- peripheral fatigue- due to changes at the junction between motor neurons and the muscle.
- central fatigue- caused by a reduced capacity to use voluntary force in relation to the capacity to use involuntary force
- and muscle damage- this is associated with several issues at the cellular level such as disrupted membranes and cytoskeletons; and tissue damage via torn muscle fibers, and collagen.
Overall, these may affect muscle fiber activation and the amount of force they are capable of producing- i.e. sustained strength. However, muscle fatigue can be greatly reduced via the maintenance of PRT. Also, apart from strength gains, PRT is <em>used for weight loss and muscle building</em>; common tools used in PRT include <em>free weights, elastic bands and exercise machines. </em>
