animals for testing are that they have similarities in their tissues and DNA. Though parts of the human body vs. an animal’s body may have similarities but people must keep in mind that we are two totally different species. Science shows that animals rarely serve as good models for the human body so why would we feel safe with the product anyways. The best thing for us to do is test out products on other humans so then we can get reliable and accurate results. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) stated

The human body is the entire structure of a human being and comprises a head‚ neck‚ trunk (which includes the thorax and abdomen)‚ arms and hands‚ legs and feet. Every part of the body is composed of various types of cell.[1] At maturity‚ the estimated average number of cells in the body is given as 37.2 trillion. This number is stated to be of partial data and to be used as a starting point for further calculations. The number given is arrived at by totalling the cell numbers of all the organs

essay is to "discuss the principal ways in which heat is gained by and lost from the body‚ and explain the various mechanisms involved in regulation of body temperature. Briefly indicate how excessive cold and heat affect the body". The body gains and loses heat through the external environment by radiation‚ conduction‚ convection and evaporation of water. These are all physical mechanisms known to the human body. (Vander‚ Sherman & Luciano 1998). Radiation is an infrared energy between two objects

Compounds That Compose the Human Body There are five major groups of compounds that compose the human body. They are carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ nucleotides‚ and water. These are all very important to humans and without them we would not be able to survive. They have many functions that encourage a human cell and a human body to function. Carbohydrates include sugars and starches‚ contain carbon‚ hydrogen‚ and oxygen which appears in a ratio of 1:2:1. Carbohydrates are classified
