Sports Drinks and Homeostasis Gail B. Wortmann Iowa Learning Online 2001 Iowa Teacher of the Year Teacher Notes: Sports Drinks and Homeostasis Personal notes from the author: If you want students to have a rich discussion about a topic‚ the topic has to be “on their agenda.” Students need to have something from their past experience to contribute to make the discussion truly engaging. Most students have tried sports drinks at some time in their life‚ and therefore‚ have experiences

The Cardiovascular System CHAPTER SUMMARY The importance of the cardiovascular system cannot be overstated. This is one system that students frequently know something about‚ at least from a plumbing viewpoint‚ but they often don’t completely understand the complexity of the system and the magnitude of its tasks. An essential component of presentation of the material is then to outline in detail the role of the cardiovascular system and its significance to all other body systems. This chapter

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY FOR THE HEALTH PROFESSIONS CHAPTER 6: FLUID‚ ELECTROLYTE‚ AND ACID-BASE IMBALANCES Fluid Imbalance Review of Fluid Imbalance -Water carries nutrients into cells and removes wastes‚ transports enzymes in digestive secretions‚ and moves blood cells around the body. Fluid Compartments -Approximatley 60% of an adult’s body weight consists of water -Infant’s body weight is about 70% -Fluid is distributed between the intracellular compartment (ICF)‚ or fluid inside the

How is the tissue of the kidneys structurally modified to aid in filtration? It has tubules and is porous B. What is important functionally about transitional epithelium? It allows for stretching. Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". You can find transitional epithelium in the bladder and in the first expansion of the ureters as they leave the kidneys (called a calyx). C. What is the function

RNA contain this important information which is all in one small cell. The cell functions have changed in reaction to three types of proteins: Glycoprotein’s‚ Peripheral proteins‚ and Channel proteins. All three proteins were involved in the homeostatic imbalance in patient Joseph’s heart cells. It is very important to reestablish Oxygen flow as soon as possible due to all the processes that have been interrupted. In order for cells to function correctly they need Oxygen and without it the cells die

This may include projectile vomiting after feedings‚ acute pain‚ distension of stomach‚ and in prolonged delay in diagnosis can lead to dehydration‚ abdominal pain‚ dehydration‚ burping‚ and failure to gain weight or weight loss. (BONTRAGER‚ 2014) (KANESHIRO‚ 2013) DIAGNOSIS: Diagnosis for the pyloric stenosis usually diagnosed before the age of 6 months. HPS can be diagnosed through physical examination

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
