exercise and keeping myself healthy and in shape therefore learning more about the muscular system is very interesting. The reproductive system is another wonderful system to study and learn about‚ it is a great part of human life. I find it amazing to learn about the structure and functions of these two body parts and how they actually work together to perform homeostasis. We have so many muscles in our muscular system‚ too many to list. There are three main types of muscles. Cardiac muscles‚ skeletal

Fluid‚ Electrolyte‚ and pH Balance 1. The maintenance of normal volume and composition of extracellular and intracellular fluids is vital to life. List and briefly describe the kinds of homeostasis involved. In males and females‚ intracellular fluid has a greater proportion of total body water than does extracellular fluid. Give-and-take between the ICF and the ECF happens across plasma membranes by osmosis‚ diffusion‚ and carrier-mediated transport. The kinds of homeostasis involved are fluid

LABORATORY REPORT RENAL PHYSIOLOGY INTRODUCTION: The kidneys‚ which maintain the purity and constancy of our internal fluids‚ are perfect examples of homeostatic organs. They regulate the chemical content the pH and osmotic pressure of the blood. Kidneys filter gallons of fluid from the bloodstream. They then process this filtrate‚ allowing wastes and excess ions to leave the body in urine while returning needed substances to the blood in just the right proportions. Factors that affect urine
