5 The Integumentary System FOCUS: The integumentary system consists of the skin‚ hair‚ nails‚ and a variety of glands. The epidermis of the skin provides protection against abrasion‚ ultraviolet light‚ and water loss‚ and produces vitamin D. The dermis provides structural strength and contains blood vessels involved in temperature regulation. The skin is attached to underlying tissue by the hypodermis‚ which is a major site of fat storage. CONTENT LEARNING ACTIVITY Hypodermis ❛❛The hypodermis

Wireless Communication Daniel W. Bliss‚ Keith W. Forsythe‚ and Amanda M. Chan ■ Wireless communication using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems enables increased spectral efficiency for a given total transmit power. Increased capacity is achieved by introducing additional spatial channels that are exploited by using space-time coding. In this article‚ we survey the environmental factors that affect MIMO capacity. These factors include channel complexity‚ external interference‚ and channel

supervisory control of the system and uses this control to evade auditing and access controls or to suppress audit collection. Approaches to intrusion detection: 1. Statistical anomaly detection: Involves the collection of data relating to the behavior of legitimate users over a period of time. Then statistical tests are applied to observed behavior to determine with a high level of confidence whether that behavior is not legitimate user behavior. a. Threshold detection: This approach involves

immune system must recognize the pathogen as foreign and dispose of it. The overall immune system is divided into two separate systems that do work together to protect the body. The Innate system‚ is the initial immune response from childhood which functions in the same way whether or not the individual has already encountered the same pathogen. Whereas‚ the Adaptive system matures with a person as it adapts to the first encounter with the pathogen

he nervous system is the communication network of the body. It consists of a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells‚ called neurons‚ that transmit messages across the different parts of the body in order for it to function and react correctly. They are known as the building blocks of the nervous system. Structurally they have long extensions that extend out from the cell body. There are two types of these extensions; dendrites‚ which are extensions of the neurons that receive signals

to read the functions of Hypothalamus since this also forms a part of the limbic system and the class has been taken separately There are other areas in the structures near to the limbic system that are intimately connected to it – namely cingulate gyrus‚ basal ganglia‚ ventral tegmental area of the brain stem (just below the thalamus) and prefrontal cortex. So their functions are also needed to be studied alongwith this. LIMBIC SYSTEM 16th April‚ 2014 History • Paul Broca (1824-1880):

Compare the Circulatory system and the Lymphatic system Closely connected with the blood and circulatory system‚ the lymphatic system is an extensive drainage system that returns water and proteins from various tissues back to the blood stream. When blood reaches the arterial end of the capillary beds in the body tissues‚ fluid from the plasma is forced out of the capillaries by the blood pressure in to a space between the capillaries and the tissue cells. This fluid‚ called tissue fluid‚ is plasma

HOSE SYSTEM FUKO is a specially designed and patented solid core PVC Injection Hose System which is installed in concrete joints to waterproof and seal any cracks or voids in the joint area. The FUKO System seals joints watertight and offers a complete maintenance program if leakage appears in the future. When Portland Cement‚ Microfine Cement‚ or Duroseal Injection Resins are selected‚ the FUKO System can be used for multiple re-injections – a significant advantage over any other hose system available
