bread of the ham and cheese sandwich will notably be chemically altered at this point. It is because of this that bread begins to taste somewhat sweet if it is held in the mouth for some time. Muncins‚ or mucous‚ found within saliva help hold the food intact‚ creating a bolus. This allows the ingested material to be more easily managed as it passes through to the esophagus. Upon reaching the esophagus‚ the bolus is propelled by a movement called peristalsis. This wave-like contraction of smooth muscle

Physical effects of ultrasound: 1- Thermal effects 2- Non-thermal effects 3- Effect of US in tissue repair First: thermal effect @ It is due to generation of heat within the tissue due to adsorption of US. @ Tissue with high amount of protein absorbs US more than other tissues. @ Generation of heat within the tissue will decrease pain‚ joint stiffness & increase blood flow. @ Thermal effect achieved if the temperature of the tissue is raised to 40°c - 45°c for at least 5 minutes

Neuro notes for test 2! Cell membranes are composed of a lipid bilayer. It has different receptors that allow different ions to pass‚ depending on the conditions in the cell. Leak channels- always open allow ions to flow back and fourth across the cell membrane Na cl ‚K and Ca ions and they just flow back and fourth without any gate keeper or obstruction‚ When the neuron is at rest its cytoplasm is Negatively charged. That means that it is not going under depolarization‚ we use the term resting

with a light microscope and were first discovered in the 1800s. For many years after their discovery‚ mitochondria were commonly believed to transmit hereditary information. It was not until the mid-1950s when a method for isolating the organelles intact was developed that the modern understanding of mitochondrial function was worked out (Davidson‚ M.W.‚ 2004). Wallace said‚ in a March 2008 interview on Mitochondria and Aging that‚ as well as supplying cellular energy‚ mitochondria are involved in

Acute Inflammation The survival of all organisms requires that they eliminate foreign invaders‚ such as infectious pathogens‚ and damaged tissues. These functions are mediated by a complex host response called inflammation. Definition of inflammation Inflammation is fundamentally a protective response‚ the ultimate goal of which is to rid the organism of both the initial cause of cell injury (e.g.‚ microbes‚ toxins) and the consequences of such injury (e.g.‚ necrotic cells and tissues)

AP Biology Summer Summaries There are many differences between proximate and evolutionary causes and explanations on why we are such easy targets for diseases. The proximate explanations are described by its anatomy‚ physiology‚ and biochemistry. Evolutionary explanations go into detail on what would happen if we didn’t have the genes that cause us to get sick. Proximate causes look for what genes it is made up of and how it works. Evolutionary causes are why natural selection hasn’t eliminated
