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>
Answer:
A
Explanation:
All the other ones are safe options for the community
Answer:
This statement is true
Explanation:
While this question can appear incomplete, the claim stated is in fact true. There are many people who are deciding that they do not want to vaccinate their children, and this can be bad for herd immunity.
What herd immunity is, is that if 90% of kids in a population are vaccinated (cannot transmit the disease), and they are all spread out, statistically speaking, there is very little chance of that 10% of kids meeting each other.
Answer:
Human papillomavirus (HPV)
Explanation:
The rough growths described are warts, which are skin growths caused by HPV.
HPV stimulates the growth of the cells on the outer layer of the skin, forming warts. There are many types of HPV, some cause warts on the hands, others can affect the feet, face, genitals, and more.
HPV infections are very common and can be spread by skin-skin contact
