Energy Systems The body contains three different types of energys systems which all work together to help us to contract our muscles and perform a variation of movements. ATP-PC ATP-PC is an energy source for the body. ATP is a molecule called Adenosine triphosphate it is an energy source for all movements. The ATP-PC Adenosine triphosphate phosphocreatine is for sudden or immediate movements at high intensity‚ this energy source only last for a few seconds around 8-10 seconds. Muscle cells contain

Imperial System is one of many things holding back the world from complete unison. The US is the only country now that hasn’t begun switching to the Metric System. The Metric System is more logical and is easier to use than the Metric System. It causes many problems with the rest of the world. The US should switch to the metric system because all units logically fit into each other and more countries use it than the Imperial System which forces car manufactures and maps to display both systems.

Family Systems Mary A Foerster Liberty University Family Systems The family acts in many ways like a living organism. The human body‚ to maintain function‚ works to maintain homeostasis. Homeostasis is defined as the optimal balance (Hinson‚ 2014). The family also operates on the principle of homeostasis. When one of the parts of the body is out of balance the body fights either through the immune system or through body reactions to bring the part back to a balance or homeostasis with

Structure of the heart: The heart is at the centre of the cardiovascular system. It is a hollow muscular pump that drives blood through the arteries‚ which allows it to reach the working muscles and tissues. The heart is split into two halves. The right side of the heart is separated from the left by a solid wall known as the septum. This prevents any blood on the right side coming into contact with the blood on the left side. The right side of the heart sends deoxygenated blood to the lungs in

(Intro. To Operating Systems) Assignment: CSC 334 A – Project 1 Jae Hyung Chang Before I began on what type of “Operating System” I’ve researched I’ll start by explaining what an operating system is. An operating system is a collection of software that manages computer hardware resources and provides common services for computer programs. The operating system is a vital component of the system software in a computer system. Application programs usually require an operating system to function also

The prescription system is great because‚ it helps patients take the right medicine‚ and they are able to find out the condition of the patient (Robert 1). Some want to get rid of this system‚ due

The Origin of the Solar System A cloud of interstellar gas and/or dust (the "solar nebula") is disturbed and collapses under its own gravity. The disturbance could be‚ for example‚ the shock wave from a nearby supernova. As the cloud collapses‚ it heats up and compresses in the center. It heats enough for the dust to vaporize. The initial collapse is supposed to take less than 100‚000 years. The center compresses enough to become a protostar and the rest of the gas orbits/flows around it

THE SOLAR SYSTEM T The Solar System consists of the Sun and the astronomical objects gravitationally bound in orbit around it‚ all of which formed from the collapse of a giant molecular cloud approximately 4.6 billion years ago. The vast majority of the system’s mass (well over 99%) is in the Sun. Of the many objects that orbit the Sun‚ most of the mass is contained within eight relatively solitary planets whose orbits are almost circular and lie within a nearly flat disc called the ecliptic

The major functions of the urianry system are produces urine‚ stores urine‚and elimintes urine. The organs of the urinary system work to help the body get rid of wastes and excess water in the form of urine. Other urinary system organs help transport urine or store urine and release it when it is time. The organs of the urinary system include the two kidneys‚ two ureters‚ a urinary‚ bladder‚ sphincter‚ and the urethra. The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs‚ each about the size of a fist. They
