Fluid‚ Electrolyte‚ and pH Balance 1. The maintenance of normal volume and composition of extracellular and intracellular fluids is vital to life. List and briefly describe the kinds of homeostasis involved. In males and females‚ intracellular fluid has a greater proportion of total body water than does extracellular fluid. Give-and-take between the ICF and the ECF happens across plasma membranes by osmosis‚ diffusion‚ and carrier-mediated transport. The kinds of homeostasis involved are fluid

Anatomy and body type plays a significant role in determining the proper weightlifting strategy; there is no one weightlifting plan that would work for all members in a group‚ not only because people have different physical traits‚ but also different diet and living habits. There are three major body types: Ectomorph‚ endomorph and mesomorph. People who are described as Ectomorphs usually have lean muscle mass; they have small frames and do not gain weight easily‚ and therefore‚ have a slim appearance

There is a problem that seems to be surrounding our community that is having an effect on the health of our neighbors. Our community is new and we have grown to become something like one big family so this problem will take its toll on all of us.

The first thought that I had was that the developer of the community had done something wrong

1. Consider the equation F = DP/R. It describes the flow (F) of fluid in a tube in which there is a pressure difference (DP) between the two ends and a resistance (R) to flow. The equation indicates that(2.0 Score ) A.the flow of fluid from point A to point B in a tube depends upon the difference in pressure between A and B. B.the flow of fluid in a tube depends upon the absolute pressure at the beginning of the tube. C.the greater the resistance to flow in a tube‚ the greater the flow for any

Unit 5: Anatomy and Physiology (P4) Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body In this task I am going to discuss the three systems involved in energy metabolism in the body. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + O2 = E + CO2 + H2O OR Glucose + Oxygen = Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water In order to release energy we need glucose which is a simple carbohydrate that is produced after digestion of food and we also need oxygen

1. Q:Collect Balance Sheet of five different companies. Try to analyse it in your own words. Analysis can be in terms of change in profit‚ asset‚ liabilities. Etc ZYNGA [pic] The First comapny we’ll be looking at is Zynga. Let’s jump right into it. Across the board‚ the Total Current Assets is less than the previous year‚ more more than other earlier years. This could indicate that the company may have liquidized some of their assests within the year. Total Assests is greater than the

Laboratory – Muscle Physiology A. MUSCLE TONUS Observations‚ Report and Conclusion: A. Define muscle tonus and give its importance * Muscle tonus refers to a state of slight muscular contraction maintained by synchronous impulses of low frequency‚ discharged by the spinal motor neurons. * Reflex in nature. * Muscle tonus is a small amount of tension in the muscle due to weak‚ involuntary contractions of its motor units. Muscle tonus is important in a sense that it governs the

Jogging Activity and Cardiovascular Fitness Today‚ people are becoming more aware of the importance of physical activity. There has been a recent increase in the popularity of fitness activities as hobbies. However‚ despite this increasing popularity in health related activities the large majority of the American population maintains a sedentary‚ unhealthy lifestyle that had led to increased obesity and morbidity rates. According to David Chandler‚ “The largest [obesity] increase has occurred in
