probable the world’s exceptional anatomist. Da Vinci was studying anatomy and his findings were way ahead of his time and years before the beginnings of the scientific revolution. He was born in Vinci‚ Tuscany on the 15th of April 1452. He was the son of a Florentine Lawyer and grew up in Florence as an apprentice of Andrea Verrocchio. He began his study of anatomy around 1489 and “shown particular interest in the head and brain”. Anatomy seemed to be an ongoing fascination for Da Vinci for he continued

P5. Explaining the Concept of Homeostasis. M2. Probable homeostatic response’s to changes in the internal environment during exercise. The actual word homeostasis means "steady state". Homeostasis describes how the body regulates its process to keep its internal conditions as stable as possible. Homeostasis is necessary because human cells are efficient but very demanding. The phrase homeostasis is a bit confusing; conditions inside our bodies are not constant but are kept within a narrow

Maya Bourgeois 10/26/14 09/08/14 “Notch1 and osteoblasts play role in bone cancer initiation” Baylor College of Medicine Glenna Picton Some molecular and cellular geneticists at the Baylor College of Medicine have discovered that Notch1‚ a gene that can decide cellular fate‚ can cause osteoblasts (cells that lead to bone formation) to become cancerous. They determined this data using a mouse model of osteogenic sarcoma‚ a deadly bone malignancy. Turns out that in mice

Q. A young hiker has been on a long walk. He is now sitting in front of a small campfire‚ drinking a hot cup of soup. It is dark and a frost is beginning to form on his tent. Explain the hiker’s heat gains and losses‚ and what mechanisms would come into effect to keep his temperature at the desired 37ºC. Humans are subject to vast changes in environmental temperatures‚ but our complex biochemical systems have a major limitation in that enzymes only operate within a relatively narrow temperature

Leonardo da Vinci has earned his place in history as one of the masters of renaissance art. However Leonardo was also quite interested in anatomy‚ and had a series of sketches depicting many aspects of humans. His work started when he was in Milan‚ while there he would look at the heads of criminals and limbs from the injured. His work in anatomy really paved the way for artists of his era‚ and scientists for years to come. In fact many scientists today believe that most of his sketches are so realistic
