There are six types of synovial joints. Gilding joints, such as carpals of the wrist, these joints allow only gliding or sliding movements. Hinge joints, act as a door hinge does, allowing flexion and extension in just one plane. Pivot joints one bone rotates about another. Condyloid joints two bones fit together with an odd shape these joints allow flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction movements. Saddle joints, which resemble a saddle, permits the same movement as the condyloid joints, but allow greater movement. Ball and socket joints allow all movement except gliding. Compound joints modified hinge joints condylar joints (condyles of the femur join with condyles of tibia) and saddle joint (lower end of femur joins with patella.) The function of the synovial joints are to allow…

The Vissco Fumerous Splint is designed to hold the femur bone in place, in case of any injuries. The splint is created to support and provide grip to the patient using it. It also holds the knee and foreleg in place and helps to walk after a difficult injury or…
Diffusion is the molecular net movement from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. For instance, when a person is smoking, the smoke diffuses into the air. The molecules in the smoke, released from the cigarette, travel through the air. Here is how it occurs. When molecules are close enough, they collide with each other, their kinetic energy changes. Due to the direct relationship between diffusion and molecular kinetic energy, the molecules move away from the point of the collision as their kinetic energy is redirected. Therefore, molecules always tend to distribute themselves throughout the area they stay. It continues until dynamic equilibrium is reached, that is, no net movement happens. Molecules at that time are still in motion, but the amount of molecules moving in one direction equals to the amount of molecules moving in the other direction.…

As John sat in the bustling coffee shop and gazed at the blank paper in front of him, beads of sweat broke across his forehead and trickled slowly down his face. How was he meant to write down what he was feeling when he couldn’t explain it? He knew his emotions were in there somewhere but he just couldn’t reach them. They were locked tight, stuffed somewhere deep down. He was comfortably numb and that was something that terrified him. It was as if the numbness was pulling him into a black hole. He was trapped, unable to get out. His thoughts were jumbled and out of sync. He couldn’t tell if what he was feeling was real. Was he capable of feeling emotions anymore? It was as if John was a ghost. Doing what he had to do to get through the day. Doing what he could to make his father proud. That wasn’t living in his opinion. It was merely existing.…
During the siege of Moorish Granada over 20,000 Spaniard soldiers died during and after the battle. 3,000 of these deaths were from the fight, but 17,000 were from the disease know as typhus. During WWI, soldiers were in close proximity of each other which was poor hygiene. This caused around 2-3 million soldiers to die of typhus, and in WWII it killed an estimated 20-30 million people. Not only did soldiers die, but the most famous well known Anne Frank died from typhus in a concentration camp. These accounts include descriptions of fever and red spots over arms, back, and chest. There is no current data on outbreaks about typhus, but it is not safe to assume that it will strike again when we less expect it. The group of Rickettsia was first discovered by Howard Taylor Ricketts, who later died of typhus, for the discovery of the Rickettsia prowazekii cell.…
Some call it “horror” and some call it “the super germ”, but now, our always known “regular” bacteria, those one-celled creatures once considered under control with antibiotics, have invaded our hospitals and headlines with a vengeance. The vengeance used against us is caused by an existing organism called necrotizing fasciitis, the so-called flesh-eating bacteria, caused by Group A streptococcus. What this organism does is progressively destroy the human body tissue all the way to the bone. This organism has amazingly outsmarted us of even our most potent drugs.…
Germs, such as bacteria and viruses sometimes enter the body. When this happens, the bacteria or virus attack the body's cells and begin to multiply. When this happens, it is known as an infection which in turn make people ill. Our body uses its immune system to fight of the infection that has began spreading in the body.…
