File Systems The file system provides the environment for working with files and folders. Windows uses FAT12‚ FAT16‚ FAT32 and/or NTFS with NTFS almost always being the best choice. Linux also has a number of its own native file systems. The default file system for Linux used to be ext2‚ now it is typically ext3. MS-DOS used to be and Microsoft Windows continues to be the most popular operating system for 80386‚ 80486‚ and Pentium PCs. Because Linux started on 80386/80486 PCs‚ a connection

The Skeletal system is the system of bones‚ associated cartilages and joints of human body. Together these structures form the human skeleton. Skeleton can be defined as the hard framework of human body around which the entire body is built. Almost all the hard parts of human body are components of human skeletal system. Joints are very important because they make the hard

In any nervous system‚ there are 4 main components: (1) sensors: gather information from the external environment (sense organs) (2) conductors: carry information from sensors to modulators or from modulators to effectors (nerves)

The organ systems of the human body are interdependent because one organ of the connects to another organ system. Organs are made up of tissues which that work together to keep organism‚ in this essay humans‚ alive. One function of a system always leads to another systems function. If one organ becomes ineffective/damaged‚ then that person may not function well and end up passing away. There are eleven organ systems within the human body: integumentary‚ skeletal‚ muscular‚ nervous‚ endocrine‚ circulatory/cardiovascular
Premium Blood Heart Circulatory system
The cardiovascular system‚ also known as the circulatory system‚ is composed of the heart‚ blood vessels‚ and blood. The term cardiovascular refers to the heart (cardio-) and blood vessels (vascular). The term circulatory refers to the circulation of the blood. The heart is a muscular pump and its regular contractions send blood into tough‚ elastic tubes called arteries‚ which branch into smaller vessels and convey oxygen-rich blood through the body. The arteries eventually divide into tiny capillaries

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION OF NERVOURS SYSTEM: NEURONS: * STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION: Specialized cell transmitting nerve impulses; a nerve cell. Neurons have specialized projections called dendrites and axons. Dendrites bring information to the cell body and axons take information away from the cell body. Neurons communicate with each other through an electrochemical process. Information is transmitted to the receiving cell at junctions via chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. At this juncture
