Michael Franchina Comm. 3300 5/7/10 Hypertension‚ also known as high blood pressure‚ is a chronic condition in which blood pressure is elevated. “Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of arteries as it flows through them. Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood from the heart to the body ’s tissues. As blood flows through arteries it pushes against the inside of the artery walls. The more pressure the blood exerts on the artery walls‚ the higher

Public Health Problem Hypertension is when there is an elevated force of blood in the human body. High blood pressure virtually exists everywhere in the world and in almost every community.

Homeostasis is the body’s ability to maintain a constant balance between the internal environment and external environment at a constant rate‚ despite changes which may affect our external environment such as body temperature and the amount of water in our bodies. By keeping this internal balance it allows our bodies to function efficiently. The negative feedback loop is produced when changes to our internal environment changes from its normal range. In this instance the brain and the nervous system

Homeostasis Lab Analysis Assigned Challenge: Doorframe Look at the data for your assigned challenge. Why did the “guinea pig’s” body react the way it did during the challenge? What was happening inside of the body that you couldn’t necessarily measure or see? The “guinea pig’s” body had the reaction of soreness and weakness as time increased because the body was using more and more energy as time passed with little rest. The form of pushing that every guinea pig was excelling on the doorframe

Science Assesment – Homeostasis Homeostasis is the state of body in the system which variables are regulated so that internal conditions remain stable and relatively construct. Homeostasis works by monitoring levels of variables and making connections by negative feedback mechanisms. Negative feedback is a reaction in which the system responds in such a way as to reverse the direction of change. The three components of a homeostatic control system is a receptor‚ this detects changes. The integrator

RN Cultural Endemic Diseases Hypertension‚ or high blood pressure‚ is estimated to affect one billion people worldwide. It is known as a silent killer and is classified as a persistent systolic blood pressure equal to or greater than 140 mm Hg. The prevalence (how many people have a specific disease) of hypertension increases as you age. This means that there are more people with hypertension who are above the age of 55. If you are not diagnosed with hypertension by the age of 55‚ there is still
