Biology
Effects of weightlessness on
the muscles
participants
Belgium France
Julie Vanthournout Jakob Vermeulen Imen Talsi Dahmane Carla Terraillon
When astronauts arrive back
on earth they have trouble standing up and
walking. Why?
 The human muscle
gets thinner since
there’s no effort
made because of the
absence of gravity
and so we lose
weight.
Hypothesis
 During their stay in space astronauts have to use
their muscles
less/more cause there's is less/more gravity. This
causes atrophy of
the muscles. When they arrive back on Earth the
amount of muscles is so small they can't stand
up or walk very well.
Protocol Belgium
 Measure your weight standing up straight on a scale.
 Put the scale vertical against the wall. Lie down on
your back with your feet against the scale. Push your legs against
the scale. What's your weight now?
 Describe the difference (you feel) in your leggs standing up or lying
down.
Protocol France
 Measure your weight
 Lie on the skateboard
 Put pressure on the balance still lying on the
skateboard
 Take note of the weight marked on the scale
Materials
 Belgium
1. Scale
 France
1. Scale
2. Skateboard
The results
standing up
 The weight is 72kg
The resluts
lying down
 The weight is 5kg
The Results
explanation
 When you stand up the gravity is pulling you down
and the muscles of your legs are working and that
makes you weight more. When you laying down
these muscles you don't need so much because
the gravity pulls to whole your body and not
allone to your legs.
The results France
 Our weight is 2 times
see 3 times lighter
than our initial
weight when we put
pressure on the scale
while lying on the
skateboard.
conclusion
 In the space there is less gravity than on earth. So
the muscles become atrophy. The gravity makes
the bones strong, when there is no gravity your
bones become less strong. When astronauts get
back on earth they need there muscles but the
muscles aren't strong enough so that's why it's
hard for astronauts to arrive back on earth.
reflection
 Did you expect this answer?
Yes, because there is no gravity in space that is
pulling you down.
 Compare your results with the results in the
other school. Did you make the same conclusion?
We had the same conclusion.
