What reading level is Life in Motion; Or, Muscle And Nerve; a Course of Six Lectures Delivered Before a Juvenile Auditory At the Royal Institution of Great Britain During the Christmas Holidays of 1891-93 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not so easy to show that even a simple contraction produces heat, be- cause such a movement of the gastrocnemius of a frog is associated only with a rise of temperature of from one-thousandth to one- 118 LIFE IN MOTION five-thousandth of a degree centigrade. Teta- nus of frog's muscle gives from fourteen to eighteen-thousandths of a degree centigrade.
No doubt each contraction of the muscles of higher animals, such as those of man, produces or is associated with more heat, but still the a...mount for each individual contraction is not much. But by the accumulation of small amounts, a large amount is formed, and there can be no doubt that a large proportion of the heat of our bodies is derived from the muscles.
That muscles produce heat is consistent with our daily experience. The more actively we work our muscles the hotter we become.
When we wish to become warm we run, or leap, or dance, and in doing so we exercise our muscles.
We must now take a more scientific view of this matter.
