[edit] Removal of ATP Production
I was thinking that the ATP production section in this chapter is mostly a repeat from the cell chapter. Seems like it's not needed- does anyone else have an opinion on this? -Stephanie March 13
[edit] Spring semester
Lets start using this discussion page to help us when we need to talk to each other. I have a question does anyone know if there really is 10 types of muscles like it says in this muscle chapter or is that some thing we should be taking out? I thought there was only three types of muscles. Danette
[edit] Goals for the wikibook
I thought this might help us to keep on top of the book and get as much done as we can. If anyone has any ideas to have as a goal please fill free to post it. 1. Let communicate with each other. 2. One idea I had was to post any clinical cases you might have where applicable.
[edit] Copy from Wikipedia
I notice that alot of this information currently is copied from wikipedia. Wikibooks and wikipedia are sister projects, so copying isn't a big problem. However, all the links from the wikipedia artical will show up as red "broken" links here. The artical is a good starting point, but make sure you add alot of new, good information. This is supposed to be an entire book, remember, not just a single artical! --Whiteknight(talk) (projects) 22:19, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Remove the links
As Whiteknight has noted, it is fine to post some links for additional information if there are some topics that you are not going to go into as much depth about, but in general each chapter should be complete without having to follow 10 different links. To remove the links just edit the page and delete the brackets around the words. Glad to see you are getting off the ground! ~Kevin Provophys 23:46, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Images
I've found some resources for you and your chapter:

Let me know if you need help importing these images into your page. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 14:48, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fast twitch slow twitch
I didn't see anything about fast and slow twitch--should we add something?
[edit] Fat cell numbers change dramatically in post-natal life
A slight correction is indicated to the assertion that fat cell numbers do not change. Otherwise this assertion should be omitted. While adipose cells are known to increase extraordinarily in size (hypertrophy), it is also true that fat contains adult stem cells which proliferate and form new fat cells in postnatal life (hyperplasia). Thus obesity is due to increases in both the number and size of fat cells, and fat represents one of the most dynamic and plastic permanent tissues in the human body. e.g. PMID: 17726433.
