Tissues in the Body Unit 5 – Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care Epithelial Cuboidal – cube shaped‚ prominent nucleus. Can be found in medulla of kidney. Does not allow for passive diffusion easily. Columnar – tall‚ vertical‚ thick cells. Can be found in the small intestine. Does not allow passive diffusion easily. Active transport is needed. Move nutrients from intestine to blood = absorption! Can have microvilli to increase surface area. Squamous – large‚ thin and prominent

Determining the Latent Period 1. Click Clear Tracings to erase the oscilloscope display. The voltage should be set to 5.0 volts. 2. Drag the 200 msec button to the right edge of the oscilloscope. 3. Click the Stimulate button once‚ and allow the tracing to complete. 4. When you measure the length of the latent period from a printed graph‚ you measure the time between the application of the stimulus and the beginning of the first observable response(increase in force). The computer can’t “look ahead

An Analysis of the Main Causes of Cardiovascular Diseases There are a great number of diseases such as cancer and HIV around the world. However‚ cardiovascular disease (CVD) is now arousing public attention due to its increasing effect on populations. ‘Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the name for the group of disorders of heart and blood vessels such as hypertension‚ coronary heart disease‚ stroke‚ and peripheral vascular diseases’ (WHO‚ 2012). CVD has enormous impacts on health and kills an estimated

P5 – Describe the Structure and Function of the Cardiovascular System Changes in Stroke Volume Stroke volume is the amount of blood pumped out the left ventricle‚ every beat your heart makes. It can differ from your resting heart beat and your heart beat when exercising. Normally‚ when exercising‚ your heart rate increases meaning the stroke volume also increases. The blood pumped by the left ventricle is oxygenated‚ and will deliver oxygen to the muscle. The more blood injected in a heartbeat means
