    Joseph’s Story Jalisa Cason A&P 1 Unit 2 case study B. Cellular processes and membrane functions that will be affected if Joseph’s heart stopped would be as follows. Oxygen‚ glucose‚ and essential ions that are required for the heart to pump will slow down. Each of his cells will have to work harder and faster which uses up his energy supply. Carbon dioxide levels inside the cells will rise‚ which causes his PH to drop. The mitochondria will run out of oxygen and glucose to make essential ATP

    Evaporation is the conversion of water from a liquid to a gaseous form. Heat is lost when water evaporates from the body surface. (Seeley‚ Stephen & Tate 2002). According to Gould (1993)‚ The regulation of body temperature is one of a range of homeostatic mechanisms‚ which play a part in maintaining a constant internal

    B- Assuming Joseph’s heart has stopped‚ what cellular processes and membrane functions are going to be affected by the loss of oxygen‚ blood glucose‚ and waste removal? Since Joseph’s heart has stopped oxygen‚ glucose‚ and other essential ions that were required for the heart to pump slowed‚ but the cells continued working using the supply of ATP rapidly. The Carbon dioxide levels inside of the cell rose‚ and the pH began to drop. The mitochondria no longer had the required oxygen and glucose

    cell” the Mitochondria structure. Joseph heart attack caused the function of his cells to change. I believe the ribosomes‚ the endoplasmic reticulum‚ Golgi complex and lysosomes were the proteins in the cell membrane that were involved in the homeostatic imbalances of Joseph’s heart. Reestablishing oxygen flow to Joseph’s body was so important because without oxygen to the cells they can not produce ATP‚ the energy of the cell. He was lucky enough to have
