DEPENDENCE OF MUSCLE TISSUE THICKNESS (TMQQ) AND BODY PROPORTIONS OF GIRLS IN THE ARAL SEA ZONE ON ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS

Abstract

This article examines the anthropometric and physiological indicators of girls from various regions living in the ecological conditions of the Aral Sea area. During the study, body segment measurements (legs, knee, elbow, waist, hip circumferences) and subcutaneous muscle fat layer thickness (TMQQ) parameters were determined and compared across regional differences. The obtained results showed that the climate and ecological conditions of the Aral Sea region significantly affect the morphometric structure of the human body and the degree of physiological adaptation. Particularly, changes in TMQQ thickness in the abdominal, hip, and calf areas were related to ecological stress and living conditions. The research results serve as an important scientific basis for understanding the mechanisms of adaptation of anthropometric structure and physiological responses to environmental factors in young women.
