Little Celleste the cell was in the middle of his meal‚ when he thought for a minute about what he was eating‚ and how it had gotten there. The great Father Cellmas came to his mind‚ so he called out for him because he knew he could solve his answers. Since after all Father Cellmas was the man who knew all the questions you asked him about yourself. Father Cellmas was in the middle of a nap when he heard the yell of a small cell. “I wonder who is calling for me?” Father Cellmas wonders‚ and gets

WEEK 1: AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology‚ and explain their relationship using an example of a human structure with its corresponding function. Anatomy: The branch of science concerned with the bodily structure of humans‚ animals‚ and other organisms‚ esp. as revealed by dissection. Physiology: The branch of biology that deals with the normal functions of living organisms and their parts. Anatomy and physiology are connected in

1. How does a cell become differentiated? A cell becomes differentiated by using only the DNA that it needs. 2. Give an example of 2 differentiated cells. Two examples of differentiated cells are lysosomes and mitochondria. Lysosomes are small so they can move throughout the cell effectively. Mitochondria have a lot of surface area to make more energy 3. (Essay) What does it mean to be specialized? Explain how the structure of the cell determines its function. Give at least 3 examples. Being specialized

as previous studies have indicated that the end spurt in running is associated with an increase in the CMG signal‚ length of each stride and stride frequency. The third phenomenon is the protection of homeostasis. According to the Hill model‚ this does not occur‚ as it is the failure of homeostasis that causes fatigue and exhaustion. Contrarily‚ the key prediction of the CGM is that behaviour modification (e.g.‚ pacing strategies) ensures that homoeostasis is protected under

This bidirectional communication between the gut and the brain is known as the gut-brain-axis and is crucial for maintaining homeostasis and regulating digestion in the human body (Cryan & Dinan‚ 2015; Mayer et al.‚ 2014; Rhee et al.‚ 2009).
