Unit 1- Principles of Anatomy and Physiology Functions of the skeletal system There are five main functions of the skeletal system. To protect‚ to support‚ movement‚ cell production and storage. The skeletal system protects delicate and important organs from harm. An example of this is the ribcage. This protects your heart and lungs from anything that tries to harm it. Another example is the brain. The brain is protected by the skull. The skeletal system also provides support for the body as it

Anatomy of the human stomach The stomach is divided into five sections‚ each of which has different types of cells and functions. The stomach lies between the esophagus and the first part of the small intestine (the duodenum). It is on the left side of the abdominal cavity‚ the fundus of the stomach lying against the diaphragm. Lying beneath the stomach is the pancreas‚ and the greater omentum hangs from the greater curvature. Like the other parts of the gastrointestinal system‚ the stomach

They are postural synergy which is automatic and unconscious muscle activity. Then there is voluntary synergy which is the opposite‚ intentional activity. The researchers found out that dancers altered voluntary synergies involved in the performance of a selected dance movement. The conclusion of this study was stated

INTROduction TO THE HUMAN BODY 1. Define anatomy and physiology While anatomy provides us with a static image of the body architecture‚ physiology reveals the body’s dynamic and animated workings. Physiology often focuses on events at the cellular or molecular level. A. Anatomy – studies the structure of the body parts and their relationship to one another. i. Developmental – concerns structural changes that in the body occur throughout the lifespan. Embryology studies the developmental changes

and get him to a rehab center. A. Ions in the body break up into positive and negative ions and form a solution called an electrolyte. Dr.Kim was worried about Eugene’s electrolytes in regard to his heart and brain because they control nerve and muscle impulses. B. Bicarbonate will get rid of the excess hydrogen ions and return his blood to normal. C. Eugene’s vitals are: pulse rate 110/min‚ blood pressure 135/80‚ respirations 25/min‚ and blood oxygen saturation 97%. I know Eugene is an alcoholic

length-tension relationships represent an important part in the function of skeletal muscle. When skeletal muscle is stimulated‚ passive tissue rapidly changes into dynamic tissue which can produce force. Furthermore‚ during this process‚ the length of muscle may decrease‚ increase‚ or remain the same. Moreover‚ the amount of power a muscle can produce depends on its length‚ velocity and stimulation Powers & Howley (2015). Muscle velocity and stimulation are normally in a constant when creating a length-tension

Human Physiology Lab Special Senses Cutaneous Senses and Vision September 24/26‚ 2012 Our bodies are capable of sensing a wide spectrum of stimuli. We are consciously aware of some of the information our bodies perceive‚ but much of the information that is sensed is beyond our consciousness. Receptors responsible for perception of stimuli are found in many places: skin‚ eyes‚ ears‚ mouth‚ blood vessels‚ lungs‚ brain—frankly‚ every cell in the body has sensory receptors. These receptors are

Muscle spasms are involuntary contractions of muscles that are often very painful. Muscle spasms are also called cramps or referred to as a “Charley horse”. These contractions are most frequent on the leg muscles but can also occur in the hands‚ arms and abdomen. (www.webmd.com) Typically the muscles become very hard and tight. There are many causes of muscle spasms. The most common cause is overuse during athletic activities such as sports or general exercise. Other causes include not
