SYSTEMIC ANATOMY 1. Give OIAN of the tongue. The muscles of tongue can be divided into intrinsic and extrinsic groups. The intrinsic muscles lie entirely within the tongue‚ while the extrinsic muscles attach the tongue to other structures. The extrinsic muscles reposition the tongue‚ while the intrinsic muscles alter the shape of the tongue for talking and swallowing. Extrinsic tongue muscles‚ by definition‚ originate from structures outside the tongue and insert into the tongue. The four paired

Aging is a process that all humans must go through‚ and as life expectancy increases it becomes more important to understand the intimate details to normal aging process. Maintaining health is very important to this process‚ the older a person becomes the more medical services is needed. Since aging is a process that begins when you are conceived and continues for as long as we live out life span‚ our body reflects genetic components and environmental experience. So in a genetic way our bodies

Ch. 1: Biology: Exploring Life 1) Slides 1 and 2: What is the main difference between physiological adaptation (as in sense‚ respond and adapt to the environment) and evolutionary adaptation? Evolutionary adaptation occurs over generations. Evolutionary adaptation does involve genetic change but it’s the change in traits as a result of genetic change that drives natural selection and evolutionary adaptation (just genetic change alone won’t drive evolutionary change). Physiological adaptation is

CPR only requires one or two individuals‚ but on Grey’s Anatomy they always have large groups of doctors‚ nurses‚ and whoever else with them. And‚ the typical result of a patient is a minute of CPR‚ shock‚ coughs‚ and then wakes up. But‚ Grey’s Anatomy glamourizes the true act of CPR. The survival rates are lower in real life than through television. Dr. Stamp explains‚ “This one upsets me the most because when it really happens‚ it’s not a happy ending. It’s really sad explaining to families that

Organism Physiology Paper BIO/101 Organism Physiology Paper Every organism is different and has different physical attributes that allow them to survive in their habitat. Organisms can range from an animal‚ fungus‚ micro-organism‚ or plant. Some organisms have tick fur to deal with the cold winter as where some need the sun to survive. Evolution has given organisms their physiology to survive. Snakes as well as many reptiles have a unique physiology compared to other animals or organism

Please provide an example of Homeostasis and Negative Feedback in our environment. Be sure not to duplicate a classmates’ answer. 2. Identify some genetically engineered products currently available. Homeostasis is a point of balance or internal equilibrium. All kinds of systems — both living and non-living — can work to keep themselves in this state of balance‚ but the word "homeostasis" is most often used in biology‚ particularly to describe how the human body reacts to changes and keeps

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY The vagina is a thin-walled tube 8 to 10 cm long. It lies between the bladder and rectumand extends from the cervix to the body exterior. Often called the birth canal‚ the vagina providesa passageway for the delivery of an infant and for the menstrual flow to leave the body.The cervix (from Latin "neck") is the lower‚ narrow portion of the uterus where it joinswith the top end of the vagina. Where they join together forms an almost 90 degree curve. It iscylindrical or
