Effects of pollution on antennal nerve responses to plant odors in bumblebees
Meeting Abstract P1.96 Monday, Jan. 4 Effects of pollution on antennal nerve responses to plant odors in bumblebees WILSON, Meghan A.*; SPRAYBERRY, Sprayberry D.H.; Muhlenberg College; Muhlenberg College mw235224@muhlenberg.edu Olfaction is an influential sensory system across the animal kingdom, affecting physiological responses and behavioral patterns. Prior investigations have used honeybees and bumblebees as model organisms to study […]
Effects of muscle pennation on its kinematics and force development
Meeting Abstract P1.148 Monday, Jan. 4 Effects of muscle pennation on its kinematics and force development RAHEMI, H; NIGAM, N; WAKELING, JM*; Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC hrahemi@sfu.ca Force development, power production and mechanical efficiency of muscle fibers depend on the speed at which they shorten. In a pennate muscle, individual fibers are aligned with a pennation […]
Effects of increased rotational inertia on the mechanics of human cutting turns
Meeting Abstract P1.158 Monday, Jan. 4 Effects of increased rotational inertia on the mechanics of human cutting turns BROWN, Brian*; JINDRICH, Devin L; Arizona State University; Arizona State University brian.brown@asu.edu Locomotion in the environment is seldom steady-state. Animals and humans must constantly maneuver to change direction and negotiate obstacles. Maneuvering performance can determine predation risk for animals […]
