1. Eczema:
Eczema is a medical condition where skin patches become rough and inflamed with blisters. This can cause itching bleeding in a severe condition (McCance & Huether, 2014, p. 1627).
Eczema is a term that is used to describe a particular type of inflammatory in skin. Atopic dermatitis is the most common type of eczema. Asthma and hay fever are allergic conditions that are developed due to the inherited tendency which is explained by the term, Atopic. Most children develop this condition by the age of 10, whereas, some people often continue with its symptom throughout life. It can be treated by using using anti-inflammatory crams and lotions.

3. Angiotensinogen:
Angiotensinogen is a protein in the blood, broken by renin which is an enzyme in the kidney. Its presence promotes aldosterone secretion and tends to raise blood pressure (Thibodeau, Anthony, 1987).
Angiotensinogen has an effect on the blood vessels including constricting the blood vessels which then increase the blood pressure. It also has an effect on the nerves, adrenal glands and kidneys. Angiotensinogen requires conrol. Renin is increased if blood pressure is decreased, sensed by the kidneys. More renin increase means an increase in the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I. This has to be then converted to angiotensin II by an enzyme which limits angiotensin metabolism.
