This action primarily aims to preserve relative constancy in the body when severe changes occur in the external environment‚ as it very important for the body to maintain homeostasis in order to survive. If conditions happen to drift too far‚ certain biochemical reactions are ignited

Endocrine Case Histories - Case 28 A 21-year-old noncompliant male with a history of type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus was found in a coma. His blood glucose was high‚ as well as his urine glucose‚ urine ketones‚ and serum ketones. His serum bicarbonate was <12 mEq/L. His respiration was exaggerated and his breath had an acetone odor. His blood pressure was 90/60 and his pulse weak and rapid (120). ------------------------------------------------- Top of Form 1. Define noncompliant

Inside our brain‚ there is this system called the human nervous system. There are two types of nervous systems: the peripheral and central nervous systems. The peripheral nervous system includes the nerves connecting the central nervous system to the rest of the body. It has two subdivisions: somatic nervous system and autonomic nervous system. Somatic nervous system controls skeletal muscles and interacts with the external environment. An example is walking through a park. You are using your motor

The nervous system is made up of millions of neurons and interconnected nerves that are comparable to a wiring system. The nervous system is composed of the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The nervous system functions like a corporate giant. The CEO is the leader in the CNS and the officers and delegates are the PNS. The CNS gives the commands and the PNS follows the commands. The Central Nervous System The central nervous system (CNS) is
