The word cardamom is derived from the Latin cardamomum, which is the Latinisation of the Greek καρδάμωμον (kardamomon), a compound of κάρδαμον (kardamon), cress + ἄμωμον (amomon), which was probably the name for a kind of Indian spice plant.", "Cardamom is a spice native to the Middle East, North Africa, and Scandinavia.

The usable energy of the signal is limited to the 0 to 500 Hz fre-quency range, with the dominant energy being in the 50-150 Hz range. Usable signals are those with energy above the electrical noise level. An example of the frequency spectrum of the EMG signal is pre-sented in Figure 1.

This type of electrical recording is called an electromyogram, or EMG. Principles involved in obtaining EMG recordings are essentially the same as those used to detect the heart muscle's electrical activity from the skin surface, a recording called an electrocardiogram, or ECG.

Motor neurons transmit electrical signals that cause muscles to contract. An EMG translates these signals into graphs, sounds or numerical values that a specialist interprets. An EMG uses tiny devices called electrodes to transmit or detect electrical signals. During a needle EMG, a needle electrode inserted directly into a muscle records the electrical activity in that muscle.", "Specifically, the usable spectrum of the EMG signal is that in the range of 20-450Hz.
