Roscoe’s Journey Through the Respiratory System By: Carmen Ventura Hi‚ my name is Roscoe. Let me tell you about my journey. Carmen Ventura KINE-1306 Professor Bustamante Roscoe’s Journey through the Respiratory System Hi my name is Roscoe and I am an oxygen cell. I was told by my grandfather Gene that I was a very important cell. He told me that when someone takes a breath they take in all types of molecules in the air including myself. My grandfather was a very wise man and whenever

is divided into two different tasks interlinked with the Cardiovascular System. The first part is based on the conduction pathway of heart and its different stages. Whereas‚ the other task is based on a case study in regards of blood vessels‚ baroreceptors‚ kidneys‚ adrenal glands and heart rate that has affect the pulse and blood pressure of the patient. Task 1 Conduction Pathway of Heart and its stages Likewise central heating system with pipes‚ radiators‚ pumps and others that use electricity

Humans and the Rat Respiratory System The human respiratory system is very similar‚ if not practically identical‚ to the respiratory system of a rat. The only notable difference is the division of the lobes in human lungs. The left lung of a rat is composed of 1 lobe‚ while the right lung has 4 lobes. The right lung of a human contains 3 lobes and the left lung is composed of 2 lobes. Other than that (and some structural differences along with size) the human and rat respiratory systems work in the same

Cardiovascular response to changes in body position and physical activity Abstract The aims of the experiment were to investigate the cardiovascular responses to changes in body position and exercise on human blood pressure using an electronic (automated) blood pressure meter. Moreover‚ monitoring changes in blood flow and blood pressure in the body while sitting‚ lying supine‚ standing‚ as well as engaging in low intensity exercise of walking and medium intensity exercise of squatting after

2011 Respiratory Diseases: Infections Invading the Lungs The average human takes breathing for granted. One might think that breathing is just an involuntary movement‚ but for the millions of people who suffer from respiratory illnesses‚ each and every breath is a major accomplishment to another day of daily life. The respiratory system not only oxygenates the blood for the body‚ but also filters out wastes‚ infections‚ and provides the air that is needed for daily speech. The respiratory system

Respiratory Volumes Activity 2: Measuring Normal Respiratory Volumes 1. Minute respiratory volume: 7‚500 ml 2. Judging from the trace you generated‚ inspiration took place over how many seconds? 2 seconds 3. Expiration took place over how many seconds? 2 seconds 4. Does the duration of inspiration or expiration vary during ERV or FVC? Yes Activity 3: Effect of Restricted Air Flow on Respiratory Volumes 5. How does this set of data compare to the data you recorded for Activity
