The Importance of Water Water is important to the mechanics of the human body. The body cannot work without it‚ just as a car cannot run without gas and oil. In fact‚ all the cell and organ functions that make up our entire anatomy and physiology depend on water for their functioning. Water serves as a lubricant in digestion and almost all other body processes. The water in our saliva helps facilitate chewing and swallowing‚ ensuring that food will slide easily downs the esophagus. Water also

genetics and neuroscience‚ is one of the main reasons I chose this degree. The human body is an intelligent structure‚ it is intruiging the ways in which it can change and be affected. Through study I will gain a solid understanding of the human anatomy. I enjoy studying Biology as I find the study of the body fascinating. During my AS year I won the ’Best in Biology’ award for my theoretical academic poster based around sensitive teeth and nerve impulses. Chemistry helps to understand the world

Unit 5: Anatomy and Physiology (P4) Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body In this task I am going to discuss the three systems involved in energy metabolism in the body. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + O2 = E + CO2 + H2O OR Glucose + Oxygen = Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water In order to release energy we need glucose which is a simple carbohydrate that is produced after digestion of food and we also need oxygen

1. Anatomy- study of the structure and shape of the body and its parts. Physiology- study of how the body and its parts work or function. The relationship between anatomy and physiology is that anatomy has to do with the structures and names of the body‚ while physiology has to do with the function and how the structure works. An example of their correspondence is the cardiovascular system‚ consisting of the heart and blood vessels (anatomy) and how the heart pumps oxygen‚ nutrients‚ and wastes

I Believe Speech Eric Dworman I believe technology has made the world a better‚ but some of the effects have resulted in several consequences. People have a longer life span‚ but we are wasting more time doing useless things like watching television. There are many pros of technology. Technology helped us invent cars‚ Televisions‚ air conditioners‚ etc. One really valuable asset is our dear computers. Without technology‚ we wouldn’t have been able to have these things‚ but some cons of
