This assignment will describe the role of energy in the body and explain the physiology of two named body system in relation to energy metabolism. It will explain where energy comes from‚ how the body uses energy‚ what is metabolism/catabolism and anabolism and also it will explain cellular respiration aerobic/anaerobic is. Energy is necessary for muscular activity and movement however‚ energy is also necessary to circulate blood and lymph and tissue fluid throughout the body; for breathing and

REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 6 Cardiovascular Physiology NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: 1. Define each of the following terms: • autorhymicity- The heart is autorhythmic. This means it generates its own rhythmic action potential independent of the nervous system. • sinoatrial node- is the impulse-generating (pacemaker) tissue located in the right atrium of the heart‚ and thus the generator of normal sinus rhythm. • pacemaker cells- are specialized cells that cause involuntary muscles and tissues to

* “So You’ve Got to Write a Term Paper in SST 251" When your instructors for SST 251: Anatomy and Physiology of Speech and Language got together to decide the term paper requirements‚ we asked ourselves several questions. First‚ how can we make this project meaningful and not just "busy work?" Second‚ because this is an online section‚ how can we grade the term paper in a way that rewards students who do a commendable job? The third and final question we asked ourselves was‚ "How can we make

WEEK 1: AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology‚ and explain their relationship using an example of a human structure with its corresponding function. - Anatomy is the study of the structures and relationship between body parts. Physiology is the study of the function of body parts and the body as a whole. The kidneys remove wastes and water from the blood. 2. List‚ in order from least to most complex‚ the levels of structural
