that a famous scientist once called it "the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe.” The brain works in many different ways through sleep‚ sleep deprivation and memorization. Before we get to those we first need to understand the anatomy of the brain and how it works from day to day. Everyone knows what the brain looks like

INTRODUCTION Give a brief description in your own words of the objectives and aims of this practical. The aim of this practical was to understand how the autonomic nervous system has an effect In the ileum. Through this‚ we can delve deeper by understanding how nerves‚ through the actions Of various neurotransmitters affect the motility of the gastrointesital tract. Furthermore‚ we can investigate The effects of drugs‚ and their uses in replicating effects of autonomic neurotransmitters

There are three types of muscle skeletal which are voluntary‚ smooth muscle which are involuntary and cardiac muscle. Muscle is made up of protein filaments‚ myosin and actin. These filaments slide past each other to produce a contraction which changes both the length and shape of the cell. The primary function of the muscle is to produce both movement and force. Skeletal muscle is composed of bundles of muscle fibres containing myofibrils of thick and thin filaments (myosin and actin). Skeletal

The anatomy of the spinal cord is very unique. Externally‚ it is initially surrounded by the vertebral column. The vertebral column is divided into the cervical‚ thoracic‚ lumbar‚ sacral‚ and coccygeal regions. These different vertebrae protect the spinal cord from damage and form a type of shell around it. The spinal cord appears as a long‚ thin cord of nerves. The peripheral nerves that extend out to many parts of the body arise from the spinal cords thirty-one segmental pairs of nerves. The cervical

Musculoskeletal response: Increase blood supply: The increase in blood supply might happen as your body starts to work more efficient than usually . The blood supply has to increase because the blood has to go to the parts in your body which you are exercising the most .For example: If you go for a run‚ the blood supply will increase because your legs will need more energy‚ therefore there will be more blood going into your legs than normal because you are overworking them. Increase in muscle
