(MENAFN Editorial) A new human body coloring book has launched, aimed at those in the medical field or working with the human body on a professional or educational basis. Students who have to take anatomy and physiology tests will know that the muscular system is one of the most difficult sections to learn, and it's because of this that the new coloring book has been launched.

More information can be found at: https://youtube.com/watch?v=5Wr32A1oJB0.

One of the things that makes the anatomy and physiology test so hard is that people have to learn the location and names of between 640 to 850 muscles in the human body. Using the new coloring book, customers can master the muscular and benefit from realistic medical anatomy.

The realism behind the drawings in the book can help the reader to master the muscular system while they are enjoying coloring the different detailed sections of the human body. Once the drawings have been colored in, they can then be compared with the labeled version, which is also available to color.

This meansthat people using the coloring book can learn the human anatomy and physiology of the body while coloring to boost their knowledge and gain a better understanding of the muscular system.

Because each customer will spend a while on each section of the human body, the repetitive and methodical nature of coloring in the book helps to promote learning and allow the names and muscles to stick in the mind.

Coloring will improve the study ability of each customer, as well as helping to improve reference recall by fixating the anatomical images in their mind for easy visual recall later on simply through coloring the body parts in the book.

Through coloring the book, customers can imprint the different shapes and the location of each muscle on their mind, helping them to recall them later on when they need to. This interactive approach means people don't have to spend hours memorizing muscles on their own.

Newswise Given the current spotlight on sport concerning the use and abuse of Performance Enhancing Drugs (PEDs), there is a public interest in athletes providing greater transparency with regard to what makes them elite. In this study, the investigators conducted a thorough examination into the physiological characteristics of a two-time Tour de France champion cyclist. Several interesting results were found including: 1) some of the highest aerobic capacity values in a cyclist on record; 2) high cycling efficiency; and 3) a higher than anticipated body fat percentage. Collectively, the data demonstrated what may be the required physiological characteristics to be a Tour de France champion. While the data can neither confirm nor deny the use of PEDs, it is perhaps a step in the right direction to publicly demonstrate the type of physiology required to be one of the greatest endurance athletes in the world.

Many people still believe that these large secretive cats can't roar due to the physiology of their throat. Picture: Following Snow Leopard Volunteers Expedition

Spotted by a camera trap in the Republic of Buryatia, this snow leopard has debunked the 'no roar' theory about snow leopards, says a leading Russian authority on the wild animals.

Dmitry Medvedev, president of the Irklutsk-based Snow Leopard Foundation, says the mating season cry is proof.

'Many people still believe that these large secretive cats can't roar due to the physiology of their throat, unlike lions, tigers and leopard,' he said.

'This video proves that they can. It shows a large male roaring loudly during a mating season high in the Eastern Sayan mountains.'

Listen to this male snow leopard's love song in the Eastern Sayan mountains.Pictures: Gazeta Pskov, Dmitry Medvedev

The video which hasn't been previously shared was filmed in March 2014 near the snow leopard research base in Buryatia, and won a video trap competition for cats in 2016.

Website snowleopard.org says the endangered animals 'make sounds similar to those made by other large cats, including a purr, mew, hiss, growl, moan, and yowl.

'However, snow leopards cannot roar due to the physiology of their throat, and instead make a non-aggressive puffing sound called a 'chuff'.'

Yet the sound on this video seems more than a 'chuff'.

Endemic to high and rugged mountains in southern Siberia and central Asia, scientists estimate that there may be as few as 3,920 snow leopards left in the wild.

If your Christmas was anything like mine, then you ate an awful lot of cheese. I love mature cheddar, and Im partial to brie, but dont offer me anything blue. I always thought my taste buds dictated my choices but recent research has shown that your physiology can affect how you perceive food.

To test for a link between physiology and taste, Elisabeth Guichard from the French National Institute for Agricultural Research, and colleagues combined cheddar, soft cheese, butter, protein powder, salt and water in different proportions to create four model cheeses with differing fat content and firmness. They then trained 14 taste testers to recognise the odour of two specific compounds nonan-2-one, which gives blue cheese its notable smell, and ethyl propanoate, which gives cheese a fruity odour and rate their perception of these two compounds in the cheese they tasted. At the same time the researchers recorded the testers chewing activity and saliva composition.

Chewing mixes food with saliva. During this step, aroma compounds within the food transfer to the saliva and are then released into the nasal cavity. It is already known that food texture and composition will affect this aroma compound release. What Guichard has now discovered is that saliva composition plays a role as well. The aroma of cheeses is perceived differently by humans due to differences in their salivary composition and the way they process the cheese in their mouth. Humans with a low salt content in saliva and high lipolysis [the ability of the body to break down fats in the cheese] activity perceived the cheeses as being more salty, more cheesy and less fruity, says Guichard.

Flavia Gasperi, head of the sensory quality research group at the Edmund Mach Foundation in Italy, agrees with Guichard that both chemical and physiological parameters can influence a foods perceived quality. The highlight of this study is that the researchers are not scared, as often happens, by the complexity of this interaction between food and consumer. They successfully take into account different aspects of food composition and texture, but also the physicochemical and cognitive mechanisms related to the subjects responses, says Gasperi.

Taste perception can also change with time, as eating salty foods alters saliva composition over the course of a day and sense of smell decreases with age. This research could help the food industry tailor their products to the physiology of specific populations. So maybe one day I will like blue cheese, but for now, just pass me the cheddar.

THENational Football Association of Brunei Darussalam (NFABD) has made efforts to combine sports science in the field of football coaching with a physiology course in collaboration with the High Commission of the Republic of Singapore at the NFABD House which began yesterday.

Morni bin Zakaria, Executive Committee Member of NFABD, said that psychology is a study of the function of body, anatomy, organs and interactions with the environment.

In this case, interactions with physiology is interrelated and also needed in football, the guest-of-honour said during an opening ceremony.

The NFABD executive committee member advised participants to seize the opportunity to comprehend better the benefits which will be presented in the course whether it is in theory or practical.

The three-day physiology course conducted by an established expert in Sports Medicine and Physiology at the Singapore Sports Institute, Dr Abdul Rashid Aziz, will focus on the extensive studies on athletes conditions and training during Ramadhan.

The short course, which ends on Wednesday, also offers a range of theoretical and practical case studies such as Muscles and Energy Systems, Training Principles, Physiological demands in Football, Aerobic and Anaerobic Training, Training Load and many more.
