Answer: Collagen fibers
Explanation:
Collagen is a fibrous (insoluble) protein that form long thin fibrils in the body.
It is the most abundant protein in the animal kingdom (1/3 protein of the human body)
It is a major component of the extracellular matrix and provides support to anchor cells.
They provide strength and elasticity to tissues such as skin.
Collagen fibers are stronger than steel when stretched.

Ted wanted to determine if one brand of paper towels​ (Brand A) was stronger than another brand​ (Brand B). He performed a study where he randomly selected 25 sheets from each of the two​ brands, placed each sheet in an embroidery hoop​ (and tightened the​ hoop), placed 30 drops of water on each paper​ towel, and placed weights on each sheet until the sheet broke. He recorded the maximum weight on the paper towel before it broke. Which of the...

By Henneman's size principle , when you are recruiting stronger and stronger motor units because you're doing more strenuous activities , are we activating these stronger motor units while keeping the weeker ones active?, Or are we replacing the weaker motor units when we recruit stronger ones? At the maximal effort of the muscle, are all the motor units recruited or just the strongest ones?

Concrete colums are constructed with reinforcing steel in them to make them stronger and more ductile. The reinforcing bars are designated by size, with the size being the diameter in eights of an inch. For example, a #5 bar is 5/8 inch in diameter. A 10 inch square concrete column is constructed with eight #5 bars. A 60000 pound load is applied to this column. The modulus of elasticity of the reinforcing steel is 29x106 psi, while the modulus of...

A steel ball weighing 128 lb is suspended from a spring, whereupon the spring is stretched 2 ft from its natural length. The ball is started in motion with no initial velocity by displacing it 6 in above the equilibrium position. Assuming no air resistance, find (a) an expression for the position of the ball at any time t, and (b) the position of the ball at t = π 12 sec. Please show all the work on paper and...
