Anatomy and Physiology of Respiratory System Overview Cells in the body require oxygen to survive. Vital functions of the body are carried out as the body is continuously supplied with oxygen. Without the respiratory system exchange of gases in the alveoli will not be made possible and systemic distribution of oxygen will not be made possible. Thetransportation of oxygen in the different parts of the body is accomplished by the blood of the cardiovascular system. However‚ it is the respiratory

Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac

The Endocrine System Controls many body functions ~exerts control by releasing special chemical substances into the blood called hormones ~Hormones affect other endocrine glands or body systems Derives its name from the fact that various glands release hormones directly into the blood‚ which in turn transports the hormones to target tissues via ducts. Exocrine glands-transport their hormones to target tissues via ducts. Endocrine glands- secrete hormones into the bloodstream The Endocrine

Equipment Calibration is defined as the act of adjusting and evaluating the precision and accuracy of measured equipment. It allows the user to get an accurate and precise reading of measurements to its actual true value. However‚ in order for the experiment to be effective is must consist of validity‚ reliability‚ and objectivity. Validity is defined as the ability of a test to measure what it claims to measure. Reliability is the consistency of test results and objectivity is defined as a test

The Renal Diet 1.The kidneys: * The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs that lie on either side of the spine in the lower middle of the back. Each kidney weighs about ¼ pound. * It is important to keep the kidneys in good working order to allow them to work at an optimum level. * The main function of the kidneys is to remove waste products and excess water from the blood. The kidneys process about 200 l’s of blood every day and produce about 2 l’s of urine. * The kidneys

Renal calculi literally translates to kidney stones. These kidney stones form inside your kidneys but can affect your entire urinary tract as it travels (which includes the bladder‚ urethra‚ and ureters.) Stones form when urine is too rich with minerals and salts causing them to stick together creating a small‚ hard‚ pebble-like sediment. Kidney stones are a collection of proteins and mineral salts that aggregate into a solid crystalline structure. The stones structure is made of two phases‚ crystalline

Glomerular Filtration Activity 1: Effect of Arteriole Diameter on Glomerular Filtration 1. Compare this data with your baseline data. How did increasing the afferent arteriole radius affect glomerular filtration rate? >>Increasing the afferent arteriole radius pushed the glomerular pressure‚ the glomerular filtration rate‚ and the volume of urine to be higher than the baseline data. Increasing the afferent arteriole radius increased the glomerular filtration rate. 2. Under
