Gender Physiology: Issues and Research Relating to Gender Differences in Carbohydrate Oxidation in Mild, Moderate and Intense Exercise
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 13 page paper on carbohydrate oxidation differences between genders in mild, moderate and intense exercise. Carbohydrate oxidation is just one of the three processes which can occurred when glucose has been taken in by the muscle. After carbohydrates are consumed and stored as glucose in the muscle, the glucose can either go through the process of oxidation; can be stored in the muscles as glycogen or can be converted to a carbon compound; most commonly lactate and is transported to the liver. During exercise, fat and carbohydrate oxidation provide the two most essential fuels used as energy production in the muscles. It has most recently been found that during all levels of exercise (mild, moderate and intense) that women have a significantly lower respiratory exchange ratio (RER) than men, indicating an increased reliance on fats as fuel and these findings seem to indicate that that women generally oxidize less carbohydrates and more fat then men. In studying the differences in gender and carbohydrate oxidation and exercise however, it is necessary to understand the relationship between carbohydrate and fat oxidation, general gender differences in carbohydrate oxidation, the relationship between rates of glycogen storage and carbohydrate supply and exercise, the effects of different compound (caffeine) ingestion carbohydrate oxidation and the recent assumptions used to determine gender differences in oxidation rates during exercise.

Genetic Predisposition and Physical Performance: Height as It Relates to Performance in the NBA
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page exploration of whether genetic
predisposition affects physical performance. The author utilizes statistics from the NBA to demonstrate that height is largely irrelevant in regard to the relative performance of six specific NBA players. Summaries of field goals and free throws attempted verses those completed and average
rebound points per game are discussed for Kevin Garnet (Minnesota Timberwolves), Dirk Nowitz (Dallas Mavericks), Shaquille O'Neil (Miami Heat), Zach Randolph (Portland Trailblazers), Elton Brand (Los Angeles Clippers) and Shawn Marion (Phoenix Suns). These summaries are then presented in tabular and graphic format and conclusions made as to the importance of height as it relates to these players' performance. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Global Warming: A Discussion of the Natural Processes Encapsulated by the Milankovitch Theory and the More Deleterious Manmade Influences
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page discussion of global warming as it is influenced by natural processes determined by the earth's rotation around the sun, natural processes encapsulated by the theories of Serbian astrophysicist Milutin Milankovitch. The author of this paper asserts that the actions of those natural processes have been added to by pollution and activities such as deforestation. The result is an escalated scenario of global warming, a scenario with potentially disastrous results. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Hemispheric Specialization and the Human Brain
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page
report discusses the status of hemispheric specialization in
terms of human brain studies. In the past few decades, it has
become increasingly clear that the human brain has potential
beyond even that which had been imagined. The realization of that
potential has led to a greater determination on the part of
researchers to better understand the functions and interactions
of the different sections or hemispheres of the brain.
Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Homeostasis: Definition and Examples
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of the physiological process of homeostasis, the tendency of living organisms to maintain an equilibrium in regard to a number of physiological aspects ranging from blood sugar regulation to temperature regulation. Provides a detailed discussion of the importance of homeostasis in regard to the regulation of such compounds as salt and even the critical balance of wastes products such as urea and carbon dioxide. Details the process of osmoregulation as it pertains to homeostasis. Bibliography
