consequently leading to obesity. There is a high percentage of people who are obese or overweight and statistic shows that in England alone‚ 26% of both women and men aged 16+ were categorised as obese. There is a higher percentage of men (42%) than woman (32%) who are overweight‚ however in 2010 it was held that women did have a more raised waist circumference then men. The government has attempted to help people make healthier choices by advising them through the

and veins and venules (Blue). However‚ there are some exceptions: the Pulmonary veins‚ the Pulmonary arteries and the capillaries. The body also has two types of circulations: The Pulmonary circulation takes deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs‚ picks up oxygen and goes back to the heart. The oxygenated blood is then transported to the rest of the body before returning to the heart via the Systemic circulation. During this process blood goes to the stomach‚ intestines‚ spleen and

Paths of Circulation: Pulmonary(폐의) Circuit : carrying blood to the lungs and back 1. The pulmonary circuit is made up of vessels that convey blood from the right ventricle to the pulmonary arteries to the lungs‚ alveolar capillaries‚ and pulmonary veins leading from the lungs to the left atrium. 2.

pumping resistance. The decreased cardiac output of heart failure causes the circulation to become backed up‚ and this is where the term “congested” comes into description. In respect to recognizing this condition in a physical assessment‚ some signs detected are from pulmonary congestion and an increased presence of blood retained in the pulmonary vessels. Air sacs that are dependent may become deflated‚ the pulmonary capillaries may become engorged‚ and the bronchial mucosa can experience edema

The cardiovascular system is an organ system that distributes blood to all parts of the body. The cardiovascular system is a very important system in your body because it is the body delivery system for circulation of blood‚ which is made up of blood‚ blood vessels‚ and the heart. Cardiovascular can be compared to the muscular pump equipped with one-way valves‚ also a system of large and small plumbing tube where the blood travels through. The circulatory system is important because it transport

then returns to the heart from the body through the systemic veins. It returns to the right atrium‚ and is pumped to the right ventricle. From the right ventricle the blood is pumped through the pulmonary arteries to the lungs‚ where gas exchange occurs. The blood is returned to the heart through the pulmonary veins to the left atrium. Then it is pumped to the left ventricle to complete the circuit (1‚ 2). The pressure at which the heart pumps blood throughout the body must be able to overcome the

Overall‚ a dog park would be a great addition to a commmunity. First‚ in an urban community‚ dogs do not have the freedom to excercise due to certain confinements unique to this setting. Most city buildings have very little outdoor space for dogs to excerise. These buildings are generally surrounded by streets with sidewalks‚ pedestrians‚ and traffic. Dog owners must keep their dogs leashed at all times in this setting by law to prevent dogs from being hit by vehicles‚ bikes‚ or
