    Central Line‚ Adult A central line is a soft‚ flexible tube (catheter) that is used to give medicine or nutrition through a person’s veins. The tip of the central line ends in a large vein (vena cava) just above the person’s heart. Medicine given through the central line is quickly mixed with blood because the blood flow within this large vein is so great. This dilutes the medicine so it is swiftly delivered throughout the body. A central line may be placed because: You need medicine that

    PANCREATIC CANCER Pancreatic cancer is a disease in which cells become abnormal and multiply without control or order and form a malignant tumor in the tissues of the pancreas. The pancreas is a gland about 6 inches long that is shaped like a thin tadpole lying on its side. It lies behind the stomach and in front of the spine. The wider end of the pancreas is called the head‚ the middle section is called the body‚ and the narrow end is called the tail. The pancreas has "exocrine" cells that

    particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Because of the selective permeability of the membrane only water and other very small particles (iodine) can be diffused through simple diffusion. The solution out of the dialysis tubing had a higher distelled iodine concentration of solutes (iodine + H2O) than did the starch solution. So iodine move into the cell and react with starch molecules to formed starchiodine‚ the blue compound‚ with a specific rate. The test show
