Raphael Brandon explains how rehab specialists can exploit our emerging knowledge of tendon properties. The properties and behaviour of the muscle-tendon complex (MTC) is a relatively new focus for sports science research, but it is attracting a lot of interest.rucially, the muscles and tendons interact, with the elastic properties of the tendons contributing both to the type and quality of movement. In almost all movements, when the muscle contracts, the tendon will lengthen before it shortens, independent of any change in muscle length.
Cambrian Explosion. A relatively brief time in geologic history (30-50 MY) when large, hard-bodied forms of animals with most of the major body plans known today appeared in the fossil record. This burst of evolutionary change occurred about 535-525 million years ago. No new major phyla since. relatively brief time in geologic history (30-50 MY) when large, hard-bodied forms of animals with most of the major body plans known today appeared in the fossil record.

Cambrian Explosion. âCambrian explosionâ refers to the great quantity and diversity of life found in what is called the Cambrian layer of the geologic column. The Cambrian age in the geologic time scale is dated by scientists as being about 530 million years old. What is really interesting is not just what is found in this layer, but what is found in the layers above it, and what is not found in layers under it. The Cambrian layer has virtually every phyla known to man.
