Paranasal Sinuses: They are four paired air-filled spaces located within bones of the skull and face‚ composed of maxillary‚ frontal‚ and sphenoid sinuses and the ethmoid air cells. They have various functions such as lightening the weight of the head‚ humidifying and heating inhaled air‚ increasing resonance of speech‚ protecting vital structures. Some sinuses diseases have the same symptoms as odontogenic diseases‚ and vice versa‚ odontogenic diseases have the same symptoms as sinuses diseases

inborn response that prepares the body to "fight" or "flee" from perceived attack‚ harm or threat to our survival. I decided to test the question how this fight and flight response effects the body. How it effects the cardiovascular system ( pulse rate) ‚ the respiratory system‚ And Watch out for angry red faces‚ cold and clammy skin‚ signs of a dry mouth‚ increased breathing rates and jitteriness from activated muscles‚ etc. It really interested me because my brother asked me " why do we get scared

question one: For O2 in the atmosphere to be inhaled there must be a contraction of 2 sets of respiratory muscles. The diaphragm forms the bottom of the thoracic cavity and the external intercostals muscles which are located between the ribs. The contraction of the diaphragm causes an increase in the vertical dimension of the thorax. The contraction of the external intercostals muscles cause an increase in anterio-posterior and transverse diameter of the thorax. Together this causes a decrease in

airborne droplets and by direct contact. A varicella patient is probably infectious from shortly before the appearance of vesicles to about 5 days later. Contact infection is less common in zoster‚ perhaps because the virus is absent from the upper respiratory tract in typical cases. Zoster patients can be the source of varicella in susceptible children and can initiate large outbreaks. Uncomplicated varicella is a mild disease. Very few patients require hospitalization; less than 1% of those

recommended such as antibiotics like amoxicillin or doxycyline. Patients can also use a bronchodilator to assist in easing the pain. The bronchodilator dilates the bronchi and bronchioles; this causes the airflow to increase and the resistance in the respiratory air passage to decrease. An individual experiencing chronic bronchitis may also take cough suppressants‚ corticosteroids‚ theophylline or go through oxygen

activity are you simulating when you click the ERV button? What additional muscles are used? Maximal exhalation; internal intercostal and abdominal wall muscles What does the pump rate simulate? The number of beats per minute (BPM) stimulates respiratory rate How did changing the radius effect FEV (%)? FEV decreased in response to decrease in radius What effect does the addition of surfactant have on the airflow? AIrflow increases because resistance is reduced. Why does surfactant affect
