YAWNING Physiology‚ Theories and Contagiousness First‚ let’s look at what this bodily motion is: Yawning is an involuntary action that causes us to open our mouths wide and breathe in deeply. We know it’s involuntary because we do it even before we’re born: According to Robert Provine‚ a developmental neuroscientist at the University of Maryland‚ Baltimore County‚ research has shown that 11-week-old fetuses yawn.

Through endocrine signaling‚ the signaling molecule or hormone is produced by a gland and discharged into the blood where it travels until it reaches certain blood cells distant from its place of origin on which it exerts its action. This is a long distance communication process. The signaling molecule is mainly of protein origin‚ although there is also a varied range of steroidal hormones.

This degradation broke the prisoners down and stripped them of their personal traits. This

Chapter 1 - The Human Body Anatomy is the science relating to the structural organisation of living organisms. Physiology is the science relating to the operational functions of living organisms. The many parts and systems of the body are integrated and function co-operatively to provide a healthy living body via 6 hierarchy levels of structural organisation. The basic or first level is the Chemical Level‚ where atoms are combined to form molecules. The second level is the Cellular Level

Yellow-Red- Long 2. Why would near point accommodation change as you get older? (Think about what happens to the lens and the muscles of the eye with age) As you get older‚ the lens becomes hardened. The elasticity of the lens decreases dramatically with age‚ resulting in difficulty
