Shawn Johnson Mrs Saltsburg Human Anatomy 4-07-2013 Skeletal Disorders Leukemia: The condition of leukemia is when your bone marrow starts making abnormal white blood cells. Some of the symptoms include fever‚ headaches‚ joint pain‚ swollen spleen‚ and losing weight. To be diagnosed with leukemia‚ your white blood cells would be a high level and all the other blood cell levels would be lower then normal. The treatment for leukemia is chemotherapy( which uses medicine to kill the cancerous cells

Skeletal Diseases “I Search” Paper Directions: This is not a typical research paper that can be copy/pasted/plagiarized. In this assignment‚ you will personalize your search for learning more about an Skeletal‚ or bone disease. Part I: What do you know about Skeletal Diseases? What do you want to find out? Part II: Why are you selecting this particular skeletal disease? Part III: Tell me the story of your search. How did you find your sources? What are your sources?

Introduction to Human Skeletal System: Skeletal system is the system of bones‚ associated cartilages and joints of human body. Together these structures form the human skeleton. Skeleton can be defined as the hard framework of human body around which the entire body is built. Almost all the hard parts of human body are components of human skeletal system. Joints are very important because they make the hard and rigid skeleton allow different types of movements at different locations. If the skeleton

vascular injury. Pain‚ pallor‚ pulseless (distal to fracture site)‚ paresthesia‚ and paralysis (Hockenberry‚ & Wilson‚ 2014). II. Which diagnostic studies are most useful for assessing skeletal trauma? Initially‚ x-ray imaging is one of most useful diagnostic imaging to assess skeletal trauma. Based on the impression from the x-ray report‚ an MRI or a non-contrast CT scan may also be useful to assess trauma (Hockenberry‚ & Wilson‚ 2014). III. What are the goals of fracture management

found in animals: connective‚ muscle‚ nervous‚ and epithelial. We are going to go into muscle tissue. The cells of muscle tissues are called fibers. There are three types of muscle tissue and they are skeletal‚ cardiac‚ and smooth. All types can go though hypertrophy (enlargement or overgrowth of an organ or part of the body due to the increased size of the constituent cells). Muscle fibers contract due to the interaction of the contractile proteins‚ actin and myosin. Muscle contraction generates contractile

I know that skeletal disease pertain to the bones in the body. These can be deadly and limit the ability to move around and have a good‚ solid range of motion. I know that skeletal diseases are treated by orthopedics diagnose and treat disorders with bones and orthopedic surgeons operate on the bones. I would like to know what the range of treatments are based upon the diseases. I also would like to know the statistics on skeletal disease and how common it is within America and other countries‚

Muscle tissue Muscle tissue has a ability to relax and contrast and so bring about movement and mechanical work in various parts of the body. There are other movements in the body too which are necessary for the survival of the organism such as the heart beat and the movements of the alimentary canal. Muscles can be divided into three main groups according to their structure * Smooth muscle tissue. * Skeletal muscle tissue. * Cardiac (heart) muscle tissue.
