Module 6.5 - Developmental Aspects and Homeostatic Imbalances of the Muscular System
Module 6.5 Warm-Up: Mini Symposium Round Up
This warm-up should be a comprehensive look at the muscle disorders that were researched by classmates.
After you have been given time to walk around and look at the different disorders, there may have been some questions that came to mind.
- Select your TOP 4 questions from the "mini-symposium". The questions you ask should be more than the basics. Try and think of higher level questions. Record these in your 6.5 warm-up section.
- Finally, do some research! See what you can find in regards to ONEof your questions. A quick (short and sweet) answer is acceptable (please include a source where your information was found).
