1. INTRODUCTION Simulation history is viewed in different angles including: -simulation uses e.g. analysis‚ training‚ research. - types of simulation models e.g. discrete-event‚ continuous‚ combined discrete - simulation programming languages or environments e.g. Arena‚ SIMSCRIPT‚SLAM and - application domains or communities of interest e.g. communications‚ manufacturing‚ military‚ transportation). The objective of this history is to highlight people‚ places‚ and events that have marked

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.

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
