Increased humidity put a great level of strain on the circulatory system. Humidity makes our bodies feel as if the temperature is higher. This is the result of a slower evaporation process because the air is filled with water and cannot hold much more. As a result‚ our bodies will produce sweat in order to cool off‚ but it will take longer to evaporate making the body only hotter and wet with sweat. An increase in temperature & humidity would mean a greater cardiac output to the skin to remove heat

2. Describe how these three branches are supposed to interact. The three forms of government‚ the Legislative‚ the Executive‚ and the Judicial branches interact with each other through the system called‚ check and balance. Check and balance allow the feral branches to check on one another to ensure that each branch has equal power over their citizens’ rights. This eliminates a branch from consuming too much power and becoming more dominant than the other branches. Each Branch is given their own specific

Period 1 Physiology September 16th 2014 Lab 1: Homeostasis Background Information The conditions in our bodies do not really change at all. Our body temperature has to stay within a certain range in order to function. We maintain these function through a process which is called homeostasis. Homeostasis is the process of maintaining a constant internal environment such as body temperature‚ blood pressure‚ and heart rate. An analogy to help explain homeostasis is a student walking up the down escalator

M1 Explain how to manage an outbreak of infection in a health or social care setting To help the prevention of infection spreading is by knowing the method of washing your hand because we carry most bacteria sue to the open air that we come in contact with.

This is usually encouraged by means of interesting things that the child shows interest in‚ it can then be fun for the child and they learn how to communicate at the same time. For example: The use of puppets‚

1. Describe the general structure and function of the nervous system. The Nervous System is a "network" which delivers information and monitors the processes taking place in our bodies at all times. The nervous system in all its aspects allows us to function as a single controlled and coordinated unit. The basic nerve cell nerve cell is a neuron; a chain of neurons is actually a "communication cable "inside our bodies. Neuron structure is basically the cell nucleus‚ the dendrites which receive information

How organelles work together: The organelles have to work together‚ in cells‚ in order to carry out functions. One main process that requires the organelles to work together for is protein synthesis. Most animal cells make proteins. The nucleus is the organelle in the cell which contains the material needed to produce a protein. The nucleus holds DNA. A copy of part of the DNA is made which is called mRNA. This leaves the nucleus and interacts with ribosomes which are located in the cytoplasm or
