and _conductivity___. A neuron has a positive charge on the outer surface of the cell membrane due in part to the action of an active transport system called the __sodium-potassium pump______. This system moves _sodium____ out of the cell and ___potassium___ into the cell. The inside of the cell membrane is negative‚ not only due to the active transport system but also because of _intracellular proteins_‚ which remain negative due to intracellular pH and keep the inside of the cell membrane negative

In this society‚ we now think of 65 to 74 years old as “young old”‚ 75 to 84 as “middle old” and 84 plus‚ as “ old old”. With the our age advancing all of our body’s systems eventually reduce to a slow rate while everyone’s aging experience is different‚ there are some generalizations that can be seen in each of the body’s systems. Skin‚ the primary function of the skin is to protect the organism from the environment. But as we age our skin looses it is thickness by about 20 percent. The skin

There are many aspects of being an exercise physiology major. The field of exercise physiology has always interested me‚ but I was never sure about what career path I would choose. This year has really given me a better understanding of what path I would like to pursue. I really wanted to be an occupational therapist‚ but shortly after decided that I wanted to be a physical therapist. According to Writing‚ the annual salary for a physical therapist is in a range from $70‚000-$100‚000 (2010). I wanted

1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology. Explain the principle of complementarity and how it applies to this course. The term anatomy refers to the structure of the body and its parts. Along with the study of the body structure‚ anatomy also refers to how these body parts work together and their working relationship as a whole. Physiology is the study of how the living systems in the body function and work. When studying the Physiology of the body it is most understandable if terms from the underlying
