An explanation of the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body. (P4) In this assignment I will be explaining the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body‚ the Respiration system and the Digestive system. I will start off by giving a definition of energy metabolism in the body. Metabolism in the body is a collection of chemical reactions that takes place in the body’s cells. Metabolism converts the nutrients in the

Biological perspective for example discusses that a person being aggressive can be due to possible brain damage. Biological perspective explains how your nervous system can be reaction to stress. I will discuss how biological perspective discusses the parasympathetic and sympathetic‚ along with various hormones and how it can impact with

Assignment 3 Written Essay Questions 1. a) We are able to experience different types of sensations because our nervous system encodes messages. German physiologist Johannes Muller in his doctrine of specific nerve energies described a kind of code which is anatomical. In his doctrine‚ Muller explains that different sensory modalities exist because signals received by the sense organs stimulate different nerve pathways that lead to different areas of the brain. For example‚ when the ear

The ear is looked upon as a miniature receiver‚ amplifier and signal-processing system. The structure of the outer ear catching sound waves as they move into the external auditory canal. The sound waves then hit the eardrum and the pressure of the air causes the drum to vibrate back and forth. When the eardrum vibrates its neighbour

Adrenal glands secrete the hormone known as cortisol‚ which is used in the regulation of blood pressure‚ heart activity‚ metabolism and the immune system. These glands also produce aldosterone‚ which regulates electrolytes and bodily fluids. Whenever you exercise or feel stressed‚ your adrenal glands kick into gear‚ producing various levels of adrenaline. When things go wrong with your adrenal glands

designed for survival and is regulated by both the neural and endocrine (hormonal) systems. Fundamentally‚ both systems are communication systems that receive sensory information from various sources (eyes‚ ears‚ skin‚ blood‚ etc.) and transmit appropriate responses to specific targets once information has been processed to re-establish balance. The nervous system is a rapid-acting‚ but short-lived communication system that functions by transmitting nerve impulses – it reacts very quickly to stimuli
