Muscle cramps result from an involuntary contraction of a skeletal muscle. Overuse, prolonged exercise without proper conditioning, and fatigue are common causes of muscle cramps. In addition, dehydration and depletion of electrolytes, including magnesium, calcium and potassium, can lead to muscle cramps.
The relationship between intelligent design and science has been a contentious one. Intelligent design (ID) is presented by its proponents as science and claims to offer an alternative to evolution.
Scientists are very concerned about how the public views them because of how budgets toward science are being cut, Ecklund said. The study also found that: 1  Scientists who say they are spiritual or religious are less likely to see religion and science as being in conflict.2  Nearly all scientists interviewed, whether they are religious or nonreligious, said they did not agree with teaching intelligent design in public schools.nly 15 percent of respondents said religion and science were always in conflict, while 15 percent said the two were never in conflict. The majority, 70 percent, said religion and science are only sometimes in conflict. Those who were interviewed were pulled from a broader survey of 2,198 scientists.
