RESPIRATORY SYSTEM WEBQUEST 1. Describe the function of the nasal and oral pharynx for breathing. The ph arynx is a muscular funnel that extends from the back of the nose to the larynx‚ or voice box. The nasal pharynx’s function is to allow air passage through it. The oral pharynx has both respiratory and digestive functions since it serves as a passageway for air‚ food‚ and water. 2. Describe the structure and function of the epiglottis. The epiglottis is one of the nine cartilagous structures

Respiratory therapy. A career that not only requires an understanding of how the heart and lungs function but‚ has to know the disorder and treatment associated within them. This take a special someone who is dedicated to this field of study and to every patient they may come in contact with. The responsibility of this job comes with many challenges‚ the therapist are under high amounts of stress when providing their skills in intensive care situations. This job can also be very rewarding; when a

The Effect of Concentration‚ pH and Temperature on Enzyme Activity Biology For Majors October 4‚ 2012 Abstract We examined the reaction an enzyme has when its concentration‚ pH and temperature are altered. In order to do this‚ we added different levels of pH into different test tubes with the enzyme (sucrose)‚ and substrate (sucrose)‚ and we then inverted the tube. The higher pH produced more enzyme activity. Temperature effects enzyme activity by decreasing its stability when the temperature

Cost‚ Volume‚ and Profit Formulas Heather Jauregui University of Phoenix of Axia College “The Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis is the study of the effects of changes in costs and volume on a company’s profits.” (Kimmel‚ P.‚ Weygandt‚ J.‚ & Kieso‚ D. 2003) The analysis is used to maximize efficiency in a business. In order to be effective the CVP analysis has to make several assumptions. These assumptions are that the costs can be fitted into either fixed or variable categories. The

Respiratory System A frog’s respiratory system is much different than humans. First‚ the lungs in a frog have thin walls and are shaped like balloons. When frogs swim‚ they fill their lungs with air‚ which helps them stay buoyant while swimming. Frogs also do not have diaphragms compared to humans. They only breathe through their nose. They use muscles in their throat sacs to help move the air in‚ and then is pushed to the lungs. During this time‚ their mouth is closed. Body contractions allow

Basic Biochemistry CP2085 Effect of Temperature‚ Study and Measure of Enzymes Activity Abstract This experiment investigates the effect that temperature has on the rate of activity of enzyme β-galactosidase and also the rate of β-galactosidase activity in different concentration of substrate over time. Ο-nitrophenylgalactoside (ONPG) is used as a substrate for β-galactosidase. A spectrophotometer is used to detect the change in colour of the substrate. Results show that increase in temperature

Temp. 25 C Pressure 76.0 Indirect Measurement of Volume INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate an indirect measurement of volume. This was done by determining the volume of a single drop of using a graduated cylinder to measure a known amount of consistent drops‚ which allows for the individual volume to be determined mathematically. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Pipette‚ 10ml graduated cylinder‚ water‚ rubbing alcohol and hand soap. A pipette was used to place
