Lab 1: ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION Purpose: The purpose of this Lab is to gain a full understanding of the Anatomical Orientation through completion of an in-depth worksheet‚ using all available research tools. Although there are a great number terms to learn‚ fully understanding each will be absolutely key in understanding the location of all body structures covered in this unit. Hypothesis: If I review all instructions thoroughly‚ and utilize all resources in the process of completing the Anatomical

The image I chose was Leonardo da Vinci’s anatomical sketches‚ the reason I chose this artwork and drawings was it intrigues me how precise Da Vinci’s drawings were and how he viewed the anatomy of the human body. Back then there wasn’t x-rays or any technological advancements that would allow someone to see the human body but Da Vici was able to use his mind and envision how the anatomy of the human body is and draw it. The drawings many of his first human images were anatomically inaccurate representations

The person to read Galen’s book On Anatomical Procedures‚ a book about his surgical findings‚ was Andreas Vesalius. Upon reading this book‚ Vesalius decided to do his own dissections to see just how true Galen’s observations had been. He had been granted a job as a surgeon in 1573 right after medical school at just 23 years old. As Galen had only used animals as his source of dissection‚ Vesalius found that Galen was wrong about anatomy in many occasions. One of these incidences occurred because

In this paper I am going to discuss the differences between the Humoral concept of disease‚ the anatomical theory of disease‚ the germ theory of disease and the differences between each theory. I am also going to look at the historical significance of these theories and how they apply to health and wellness in today’s health care. The humoral theory comes from an ancient Greek theory that states that the human body is composed of four basic humors. The Humoral theory is derived from the word

Anatomical dead space and functional residual capacity (FRC) play a very important role to ensure the constancy of alveolar gas tensions. Firstly it is important to understand what the anatomical dead space and FRC actually are. The anatomical dead space refers to the gas in the conducting areas of the respiratory system where air does not come into contact with alveoli. Examples of places in the respiratory system where anatomical dead space is present are the mouth and trachea. The functional residual

The GFP‚ isolated from the jellyfish Aequorea victorea‚ glows in the presence of U.V light (Sanders and Jackson‚ 2009). Materials and Methods A 250µl of a calcium chloride transformation solution ‘TS’ was added to each of two different tubes of Escherichia coli HB101 kept in an ice bucket. The tubes were marked as ‘pGLO’ and ‘control’ respectively. A 10µl of pGLO DNA sample was added to the tube marked ‘pGLO’. A 10µl of sterile water was added to the ‘control’ tube; both tubes were placed on ice for

Escherichia coli 0157:H7 OR (E. coli) is a food born pathogen that can cause serious illness or if left untreated can cause death. One of the obvious symptoms of E. coli is bloody diarrhea although not all forms of E coli have the same symptoms. The main toxins all strains of E. coli produce are called shiga toxins‚ the toxins alone are not able to make E. coli pathogenic it needs the presence of other virulence markers. The symptoms can easily be confused with other illnesses or diseases. It starts

Resulting data was analyzed to provide understanding of the use of differing culture media and conditions for bacterial growth. RESULTSFour different agar types were used in this

The kidneys are two of the most important anatomical structures in the human body because of their role in removing excess water and waste that has accumulated as a normal by-product of metabolic activity. A healthy pair of kidneys does an effective job of filtering molecules from the bloodstream that are no longer useful to the body while preventing the escape of particles that the body can still use. It accomplishes this feat through the use of a specialized membrane that is strategically placed
