How does muscle work by shortening or lengthening?
Muscles are comprised of contractile proteins; therefore, the ability to contract is present in their chemical composition.
In isometric contraction how does the muscle stay the same length when the sarcomeres are shortening according to the sliding filament theory?
Dear freind! there is not any filamnet sliding in isometric contraction and so there is no work...
How does shortening work?
Sometimes it is used as a substitute for butter.
How does the muscle system work?
molecules called actin and myocin lie next to each other inside muscle cells. when triggered (usually by calcium ions) they shift electron bonds, thus shortening the length of the cell [max about 1/3 shorter] Work is done (using ATP) to restore the cell to its nornal length.
Does butter work the same as shortening?
Because both butter and shortening are fats that are solid at room temperature, they work much the same in baked products. Advertisers promoting vegetable shortening do claim that products baked with shortening rise more or will have better appearance and texture. These claims may or may not be true. It is certain that butter produces a taste that most people prefer to the taste of shortening.
What name brands of shortening would you recommend?
Trex is a fairly well known brand of shortening (in the UK). It seems to work well.
How does the bull frog respiratory system work?
the frog can breathe through their mouth and skin.
What is the function of shortening?
It shortens the gluten strands, making your dough easier to work with.
You are making tea biscuits and it asks for shortening what can you use?
Any solid shortening will work. The finished product will vary a little bit in flavor, but should be acceptable. For tea biscuits, I would use butter or margarine for flavor. Crisco or other vegetable shortening will work but I would stay away from animal fats.
What is the use of a pastry blender?
A pastry blender is used to cut shortening into the flour mixture for flaky pastry. To get the flakiest pastry, it's important not to mix the shortening and the flour together but to layer them, that's what makes the flakes. To accomplish this, the shortening should be solid shortening and be ice cold while you work with it because if the shortening warms, it will soak into the flour before flakes can be formed. Some chefs place their bowl of flour and shortening into a bowl of ice to ensure that the shortening stays cold while they're combining the two.
What is the direct source of energy for a frog?
Muscle can be regarded as a machine that converts chemical energy into work. The first and second laws of thermodynamics apply to muscle the same way as they apply to other machines. The first law states that the total energy remains constant when it changes from one form to another:
How action and reaction forces are work when a frog jumps from a log?
The frog applies a force on the log is the action. The log also applies an equal force to the frog.
