Abstract
Kinesiology is the scientific study that refers to the study of the movement of the human body. However, it addresses different dimensions of physiotherapy and the subject of neuroscience. The principle of Anatomical Mechanism of movement, biochemicals are under the subject of Kinesiology. However, orthopedics and biomechanics is the core factor that is included by the applicants as an initial element of the Kinesiology of human health.
Similarly, motor control skill, motor learning, method of skill acquisition, sport psychology and method of rehabilitation have become the initial part of Kinesiology.
Introduction
Kinesiology is the scientific study that refers to the study of the movement of the human body. Occupational and physical therapy as well as the psychology of sports and exercise are also associated with the study of Kinesiology. In this context, the motion tracking system is also included in the motion study of humans and animals.
In this context, the electro psychology of brain and muscle activity, different methods to measure and monitor psychological activities, behavioral approach and other techniques of cognitive research are also considered as the initial part of the study of Kinesiology. In this context, the essay topic has been selected as Neuroplasticity associated with the study of kinesiology
Neuroplasticity as a Concept of Kinesiology
Concept of Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity is also known as brain plasticity. It refers to the ability of the brain to enhance change and adopt the result of experience. However, neurons, which are the blocks of the brain, are an initial part of the human body that creates sensory agents in the nervous system. Neuro refers to the neurons that are responsible for the entire functional activities and transportation of all the senses in the body.
Similarly, the plasticity of the brain refers to the presence of malleability in the brain. After thorough research of scientific data, it has been found that the human brain is built by approximately 86 billion neurons (Baroncelli & Lunghi, 2021). However, through data analysis from the early research, it has been found that the creation of new neurons, which is known as Neurogenesis, is stopped for the human body after birth.
Moreover, the current research illustrates that the conception of early research is not right at all. In the present context, the research reveals the remarkable capacity of the brain that can recognize certain pathways. At the same time, the brain can create new neurons in some cases. However, this concept is called brain plasticity or neuroplasticity. In this context, neuroplasticity refers to the capability to recognize and it can form new connections of neurons throughout the life of human beings (Duffau, 2021).
Furthermore, neuroplasticity represents the state of the brain that allows the brain cell call the neurons to compensate in the case of disease and injury in the human body. However, this neuro instruction is capable of keeping adjustment with the new changes of the body within the new environment. In this context, axonal sprouting is the mechanism that helps the brain to enhance its capability of recognition.
In this case, the damage of axons creates the new neuron, which is linked to reconnect to the damaged neurons. Moreover, the under-damaged brain cells can never end and can connect to the other undamaged neurons (Muhammad & Hassan, 2021). Thus, it can be able to form a new neural pathway that can accomplish the required function. For example, it can be said that the intact hemisphere can play a major role to take the place of the damaged hemisphere in the brain.
In this case, the brain emphasizes compensation by building new connections to the intact neurons. However, in this case, brain cells need to be stimulated actively. For example, deaf people may suffer and they can hear the continuous ringing. The rewiring of the brain cell can starve for sound. The neuro cell can stimulate the beneficial connections and that would reconnect the brain cell.
In this context, the neuro cell can adjust with the damaged cell and accept the adjustment of changes so that it can be helpful for the human body. At the same time, the neural network of the brain stimulates changing behavior by responding and providing new information and carrying out the specific function aligning to the disorder of sound for the person.
Types of Neuroplasticity
The development of plasticity has occurred in the brain in the early age of life. In the first session of human life, the growth of neurons can be observed rapidly and it explores the multiple branches for human beings. During this time, it forms several connections. However, the growth of neurons is high at the time of birth or in infants. It observed around 2500 synapses in each of the central cortex.
At the age of 2-3 years, the number of synapses has become approximately 15000 per neuron. In an adult, the amount has become twice that of an adult. However, the data research has explored that neuroplasticity is mainly two types as Functional Plasticity and Structural Plasticity (Coco-Martin et al., 2020). However, functional plasticity refers to the ability of the brain that can move functional activities from the area of damaged cells to the undamaged cells in the brain.
On the other hand, in structural plasticity, the brain is capable of accepting its physical structure as the result of learning. In this context, Jordan Grafman, an American neuroscientist states about four other types of neuroplasticity that play an effective role to move the functional activities in the brain. These are homologous areas of adoption, cross-modal reassignment and compensatory masquerade and Map expansion. These are discussed below:
Homologous Areas of Adoption:
During the period of critical brain development of the brain, the plasticity of homologous areas of adoption occurs in the brain. In any case, if the module of the brain has been damaged at an early age of the brain then the operations activities of the brain cell...
