Labia Minora Labia Majora
1,460 wordsKnowing about the body systems is important. When you know about your body, youll be more healthy than if you didnt. Any sport player needs to know and understand how all his muscles work, so when it comes to exercise or working out, they can know what their limits are. The skeletal system is made up of your bones, ligaments, and tendons. It determines the shape and symmetry of the body; acts as a protective device for your organs; acts as a firm base for the attachments of muscles (without bone...

Blood Loss O 2
1,574 wordsIntra-anesthesia hypoxia may be due to a problem with the anesthesia delivery system or a problem within the patient. The following are possible causes of hypoxia. A low supply of oxygen may be due to an inadequate FiO 2 mixture. If the proportioning system fails to allow a proper ratio of N 2 O to O 2 (3: 1) then a hypoxic mixture will be delivered. A bobbin in the flowmeter that is stuck can fool the anesthetist into believing that more O 2 is being delivered than in actuality. A depleted O 2 ...

Childhood To Adulthood Genetic Disorder
610 wordsThroughout life a person goes through a process called growth. Everyone grows at a different rate. However everyone goes through the some of the stages of life. Cells make up all living lives. Cells are the basic units, or building blocks of life. Everyone and everything is made up of billions of cells. Every cell in your body does a specific job. Cells that do similar jobs form tissues. The body is made up of many kinds of tissues. Nerve tissues and muscle tissues are just a couple examples. Li...

Disease Called Life Cycle
1,268 wordsThe phylum Myxozoa falls under the domain Eukarya and were traditionally thought of as protozoa. Within the last two decades however more advanced identifying techniques have led us to believe that they are in fact metazoan's more closely related to Cnidarians, but this will be discussed later in this essay. There are approximately twelve thousand species of Myxozoa, and it is believed that there may be more than this number. Most Myxozoa are parasites which inhabit primarily tissues and organ c...

Foot reflex ogy is based on the theory that the entire body including organs, glands and body parts have reflex points located on the feet. Through applied pressure, one can release blockages around the corresponding body part and rebalance the entire body. One may think of the foot as a scanner screen recording body functio...

Spinal Cord Stem Cells
581 wordsStem cell research looks to be one of the most promising treatments for spinal cord injuries. Stem cells are special because they are the primitive cells that give rise to different kinds of tissues in the body, and because they are self renewing in the body and in the laboratory so that large quantities can be produced for medical purposes (The Promise of Stem Cells, 2002). Another great quality of stem cells is that they have the potential to develop into many different cells in the body. When...

Diabetes Mellitus Type Ii
1,088 wordsScientific Rationale for Selection of the Target A. Characterization of Target Diabetes Mellitus is a heterogeneous group of metabolic diseases characterized by the presence of excessive amounts of glucose and glucagon in the blood of diabetic patients. The most frequently cited reason for Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is either a lack of insulin secretion (DM Type I) and / or , more commonly, the resistance to insulin in the peripheral tissues, particularly muscle and adipose tissue (DM type II).

Cancer Has Spread Radiation Therapy
1,464 wordsGreat strides have been made in recent years in the development of a vaccine to treat the cervical cancer. Scientists have cultivated a prophylactic vaccine that would protect against the human papillomavirus. HPV's role in generating cervical cancer was discovered in 1983. The WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), located in Lyon, France, has been in the forefront in epidemiological and laboratory studies needed to comprehend the disease. The IARC have chosen different metho...

Embryonic Stem Cells Stem Cell Research
1,813 wordsThe Stem Cell Dilemma Every day, nearly 3, 000 people die while waiting for an organ transplant (D'Agnese). Moreover, 66, 000 people are still on an organ donor list in the United States, few of which will ever see their name come up on that list ("Improving"). Many people believe nothing can be done about this sad fact. However, this is not the case. Studies on stem-cell research point toward a solution to this deadly problem. With efficient use of stem cells, many diseases and medical problems...

Type Of Cloning Cloning Of Humans
1,762 wordsCloning Cloning as a concept has been recently launched by scientists and adopted by contemporary popular language. In 1997 biologists together with genetic and medical specialists of Roslin University in Scotland managed to produce the cloned sheep Dolly and officially publicized its existence. [ 2 ] Since those times the idea of cloning became a subject of intense interest and permanent discussions all around the world. For the last decade it remains to be one of the most emotional and controv...

Vena Cava Blood Vessels
1,407 wordsThe Circulatory System The circulatory system in anatomy and physiology is the course taken by the blood through the arteries, capillaries, and veins and back to the heart. In humans and the higher vertebrates, the heart is made up of four chambers the right and left auricles, or atria, and the right and left ventricles. The right side of the heart pumps oxygen-poor blood from the cells of the body back to the lungs for new oxygen; the left side of the heart receives blood rich in oxygen from th...

This list is far from complete. Human cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged.

Through cloning we might eventually be able to find cures for cancer, AIDS, or other genetic or life-threatening diseases. We might also be able to prevent heart attacks or strokes. We may also be able to correct peristalsis, which has paralyzed many including Christopher Reeves. When scientists finally finish mapping the human genom...

613 wordsCryogenics is the science that deals with subfreezing temperatures and how they effect matter. There are several different fields of cryogenics, such as cryobiology. Cryobiologists study the effect of severe cold on living things, usually warm-blooded animals. The purpose of most of these studies is to find a way to better store cells and tissues for transplantation that is not to be done immediately. Every day hearts, livers, kidneys, and other such organs are shipped across the country to be t...

Muscle Mass Lose Weight
595 wordsAWorking Out Working out A person s body is a remarkable thing. It conditions itself to suit its environment. A farmer who hauls hay in a field has a strong, lean body build. A person who sits and eats all day has a more relaxed and lazy body build. A body becomes complacent with the amount of exertion it is forced to undergo. Increasing this exertion does many things for the body. Working out can help a person gain strength, lose weight, and improve their confidence. Lifting weights and a cardi...
