Muscle Atrophy:  use it or lose it
Lack of muscle activity
   - Reduces muscle size, tone and power
   - Fibers smaller and weaker:  proteins broken down and replaced with fibrous tissue (connective tissue)
   - Initially reversible
        > If muscle dies then losses are permanent
        > Thus physical therapy is important for those who are unable to move

Dino Game is a speed game that was first made for Google Chrome. The game was added to Google Chrome in 2014 as a "Easter egg" to keep people busy when they can't get online http://dinogame.one
