of the trace elements in our bodies can equally threaten human health. Iron is an integral part of your hemoglobin in the blood. One of its most important functions is to transport oxygen from your lungs throughout the body. Iron is found in various enzymes and is extremely vital for brain function‚ growth‚ healing‚ and your immune system. Excess iron in your body can lead blood in your stool‚ vomiting‚ and in severe cases liver failure. A deficiency of iron in your body is called Anemia‚ whose symptoms

cardiovascular systems to hypoxia. Second there are long term responses called acclimatization‚ which refers to the changes in body tissues in response to long term exposure to hypoxia. While long term responses occur within a cell‚ the acute physiologic responses are necessary for letting the cells adjust. The most significant acute response to hypoxia is sustained hyperventilation triggered by chemoreceptors in the carotid and aortic bodies. With this prolonged hyperventilation a high alveolar P02 is produced

EXPERIMENT NO. I BLOOD TYPING AND CROSSMATCHING A. BLOOD TYPING DISCUSSION: 1. Explain why there are different blood groups and how does the principle of blood typing work. Why is this important to know? Existence of different blood groups is the result of the presence of different antigens and antibodies in blood. Blood typing is performed by mixing blood with agglutinins/antibodies. If a sample of blood agglutinates with a serum containing anti-A antibodies‚ the blood contains A antigens

Question 1 Skeletal System The skeletal system is a strong yet light‚ flexible living framework that supports the body‚ protects delicate internal organs and makes movement possible. In addition‚ our bones store minerals while red bone marrow produces blood cells. Support The skeleton provides a frame that shapes the body and holds it up. Within the skeleton different characteristics of support can be identified. As the body’s main axis‚ the backbone provides support to the trunk with its upper

RED CELL PAPER When I think how I would plan out a terrorist attack the first thing that comes to mind is when I worked for a private security company that did security for a nuclear power plant here in Cordova‚ Iowa. They had somewhat of a strong security team but lacked in the areas of the plant that needed the most security. They lacked security for the cooling towers which without could cause the whole plant to come unstable. So there for I’m going to explain how easy it would be to execute

Canyon University Pathophysiology and Nursing management of Clients Health 410-V Professor Kathleen Ellis June 8‚ 2015 . Anemia is the most common blood condition affecting over 3 million people in the United States. It is a medical condition where the red blood cell count or the hemoglobin count is below normal and there are no enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to the tissues. The normal level of hemoglobin in male and females are different. In men a hemoglobin level of less than

Beta-thalassemia‚ also known as Cooley’s anemia‚ is the most common thalassemia affecting approximately 1000 patients in the United States. Alpha-thalassemia affects persons of Chinese‚ Vietnamese‚ Cambodian‚ and Laotian decent. Blacks are affected

Hemoglobin is found in red blood cells‚ and it normally consists of four protein subunits. Beta-globin can be found in two of these subunits. The two beta-globin subunits attach to heme‚ a molecule containing iron. This iron molecule in the center of heme can bind to one oxygen molecule. This allows hemoglobin
