- Biomechanics of intrinsic gravity
Biomechanics is the
science concerned with the action of forces, internal or external, on the living body [Definition compiled by members of the NSCORT Journal Club and organized and edited by Dr. Nicolle Zellner: Center for Studies of Origins of Life, Rensselaer Polytechnic Inst., Troy, NY 12180:http://www.origins.rpi.edu. ] . Biological masses are under influence of both intrinsic and extrinsic forces ofgravity . Comaparative impact of extrinsic forces of gravity of earth as well as of micro-gravity, as available in space, are being studied on livingorganism s [ Morey-Holton, E.R.: The Impact of Gravity on Life. In: Evolution on Planet Earth : The impact of the Physical Environment, edited by L. Rothschild and A. Lister, New York: Academic Press: p 143-159 in p 1-428:2003. ] .On presence of intrinsic force of gravity in biological mass, a conceptual model of domain of various basic forces in the particle pyramid of biological mass had been outlined. In ten-storied particle-pyramid of biological organisms {viz. (i) electron, proton, neutron (ii) atoms (iii) molecules (iv)compounds (v) organelles (vi) cells (vii) tissues (viii) organs (ix) organ systems and (x)organism /individual}: it was contemplated that short range nuclear forces might be stronger below atomic level; medium range electrostatic forces might be stronger up to compound levels or so but at higher levels of particle pyramid, gravitational force would be stronger after increase in mass through passing of age and fall in electrostatic potential in time-bound biological system [Bhattacharjee,I.R.:Self-Gravity Dictates Biological Growth-in Myth or in Reality?:"Proc".(Abstr.ID 327 General Biological Physics): 6th International Conference On Biological Physics (ICBP 2007), Montevideo, Uruguay, 27-31 August, 2007. ] .
Living species were contemplated to live and grow out of balance between individual’s inward force of self-gravity and outward internal pressure so also on interaction with extrinsic gravitational pressure and pull of the earth [Bhattacharjee,I.R.:"Proc". (Abstr.Agril. Sciences):Part IV:76th session:Indian Science Congress:Madurai, 7-12 Jan, 1989 ] .
Growth and development through isostatic balance, convectional flow pattern around self-gravity of biological mass were sketched [Bhattacharjee,I.R.: Self-Gravity Dictates Biological Growth p 1-57, 1989. ] [ Bhattacharjee,I.R.: Gravity Dictates Life-Death and Biological Growth (also agricultural productivity) Introductory Concept:1988. ] .
