The great white shark is very well known for its size, with the  largest individuals known to have approached or exceeded 6 metres  (20 ft) in length and 2,268 kilograms (5,000 lb) in weight. It  reaches maturity at around 15 years of age and can have a life span  of over 30 years.
Benign fasciculation syndrome is characterized by occasional or nearly continuous twitching of various skeletal (voluntary) muscles in the body. This type of muscle twitching can also be seen in association with serious disorders like spinal injury, multiple sclerosis (MS) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
ALS is a progressive, degenerative disease of the nervous system. It is one of a group of diseases, called motor neuron diseases (MND), in which specialized nerve cells that control movement of the voluntary muscles gradually cease functioning and die. Fasciculation is a sign of muscle irritability, as the normal action of the lower motor neuron on the muscle is impaired. 2  The sole involvement of lower motor neurons can be seen in a form of ALS called progressive muscular atrophy.
