Shock Shock is a syndrome characterized by decreased tissue perfusion and impaired cellular metabolism. This results in an imbalance between the supply of and demand for oxygen and nutrients. The exchange of oxygen and nutrients at the cellular level is essential to life. When a cell experiences a state of hypoperfusion‚ the demand for oxygen and nutrients exceeds the supply at the microcirculatory level. Classification of Shock The four main categories of shock are * cardiogenic‚: *

2013/2014 Assignment 1 (10 marks) Answer ALL the questions. 1. Discuss briefly fluid mosaic model for membrane structure. (6 marks) Answer: The lipids and most of the protein in the plasma membrane are free to bob about‚ sliding from one location in the membrane to another. Because lipids and proteins move about laterally within the membrane‚ the membrane is a fluid mosaic of lipids and proteins. The membrane fluid is since the composition of any location on the membrane can change. In the same

Gender Imbalance In early imperial China‚ the way of life was very different than it is in China today. Men were known to have taken care of the fields. Women were to stay at home and to their woman’s work. Their work consisted of sewing‚ weaving‚ spinning‚ and embroidery. This is the Confucian way of how to be a good woman. Although‚ it was not necessary for these jobs to be done year- round; many women also had the job of tea picking. In that time‚ people believed that women who picked tea would

Title of Experiment 12: The Effect of Ionic Strength on the solubility of an Electrolyte Aim: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the thermodynamics variable of enthalpy‚ ∆H for the dissolution reaction of boric acid in water. The solubility of boric acid was measured over a range of various temperatures by finding out at what temperature crystallization began for solution of different molarities. A graphical relationship between the natural logarithm of molal concentration and the inverse

joints‚ which means that they have a cavity in the joints that contains synovial fluid. Joints are not just made of bone‚ because if they were‚ friction would keep them from moving smoothly. The body uses cartilage and the synovial fluid to reduce friction in joints. Osteoarthritis happens when cartilage wears away over time and exposes bone to bone and increases friction‚ which is very painful. Synovial fluid is a fluid-like material that is present in many of the joints of the body. It serves the

Fluid Mechanics Report Instruction Water turbine is a very common used throughout the world to generate power. Although the concept of the Impact of a Jet is essentially simple‚ and it can has a highly hydraulic efficiency‚ the factor of how can produce a powerful reaction force back is also has to be considerate truly. If we can manage well‚ we can determine the best situation and the optimum deflection angle out‚ for getting the optimum force that the impact can produce. But first of all‚ we

The natural and dynamic property of the body to maintain these conditions within certain normal levels is called homeostasis. When this property of balance is disturbed a disease may happen. I would like to explain to you what occurs in your specific case.
