Muscle Atrophy
Ask an Expert Topic Forum: Grades K-5: Life, Earth, and Social Sciences
Muscle Atrophy Muscle Atrophy We are thinking of doing a science fair project on the effects of steroids on the muscle. My youngest daughter received a steroid shot on her right thigh in December and this month now has muscle atrophy where she received the injection. Are there any materials we can use as an example of the muscle deterioration, and sample chemicals to use for that example? :?: Re: Muscle Atrophy dear suey70, This sounds like a very interesting project!!

Muscle and their names

Muscle and their names Muscle and their names Hi, I'd like to know why the "Extensor Hallucis longus" is called "Extensor". When the muscle is activated, the angle between origin and insertion decrease and the 1st distal phalanx get closer to the fibula. When an angle decrease shouldn't be a "flexion" isn't it? Thanks Fabrizio Re: Muscle and their names [quote="Itto62"]Hi, I'd like to know why the "Extensor Hallucis longus" is called "Extensor". When the muscle is activated, the angle… Read more

Control Motors with Your Muscles!
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Have you ever wished you could control your own suit of power armor like Iron Man? What about building a set of Wolverine-like retractable claws? You can get started by using electromyography (EMG) sensors, which can measure the tiny electrical signals generated by our muscles when they contract (Figure 1). You can interface these sensors with a microcontroller like an Arduino and use the output to control LEDs or motors. Getting these sensors to work can be tricky. The electrical signals… Read more

Control Motors with Your Muscles! Control Motors with Your Muscles! Control Motors with Your Muscles! We need help. The kids have the programming for the Myoware 2.0 but we can't figure out the hookups to get muscles to turn the motor. We have hookups for the muscles to the arduino shield and hookups for the motor to the arduino red board, but how do we connect the arduino and the shield when the cords go in the red board where the shield should go?
