The function of the digestive system is to absorb and assimilate key nutrients which are required to maintain and regulate other systems in the body. Enzymes secreted within the digestive system have a role of breaking down food from proteins into amino acids‚ starch into glucose and fats into a mixture of fatty acids and glycerol. The main function of the respiratory system is to inhale oxygen and exhale the waste product carbon dioxide. Oxygen is breathed through the mouth and nostrils into the

Quantum mechanics is one of the major revolutions in 20th century Physics. It is probably the closest science has come to a fundamental description of the underlying nature of reality. And yet it is totally bizarre—it flies in the face of all our intuition and common sense. It sounds more like science fiction‚ or a poorly written fantasy‚ than notions which serious scientists would entertain. In this paper‚ we attempt to explain some of these fantastic notions for the layman. This paper comes with

The human body has to be controlled from advanced systems internally of which connect in order to function effectively. There are ten main systems within the body of which all perform various activities and all interrelate with at least one other system; the nervous system. The most complex of all body systems‚ the nervous system controls all functions within the body. The main function of the respiratory system is to inhale oxygen and exhale the waste product carbon dioxide. Oxygen is breathed

Future of Respiratory Therapy By entering the field of respiratory therapy‚ one is entering a growing field of opportunity. There are continually emergent job opportunities in this field whereas there is also a rise of growth in the technology and developments in the field such as medicines‚ techniques‚ and other aspects. Respiratory therapy refers to both a subject area within clinical medicine and to a distinct health care profession. During the 20th century‚ there were many health care fundamental

oxygen and respiratory disease. Respiratory disease is the term used for defining diseases like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)‚ emphysema and asthma. Common signs and symptoms of respiratory disease are coughing‚ wheezing‚ dyspnoea and production of abnormal secretions like sputum and haemoptysis (Jenkins et al 2008). Respiratory disease accounted for 8.4% of the registered deaths in Australia in 2007. There was an estimated 6.6% increase in deaths caused by respiratory disease from
