reticulum is to synthesize lipids in the cell. The smooth ER is also helpful in the detoxification of harmful substances in the cell. Golgi complex- It is organelle in the cell that is responsible for modifying and sorting proteins into vesicles for secretion or transport. These vesicles then deliver the proteins to other cell organelles and to the plasma membrane for cell

protein-digesting enzyme‚ mucus‚ and strong acid” (Reece‚ Taylor‚ Simon‚ & Dickey‚ 2012‚ p. 436) The result of this process occurring in the stomach produces a thick acidic liquid called chyme‚ which is the partially digested food and the digestive secretions. Peristaltic waves will continue to push the chyme toward the small intestine. The small intestine has two major functions; to break down food into smaller molecules and to absorb these molecules into the blood

skull and vertebral column‚ which protect the central nervous system- few pathogens are able to penetrate bone. The skin also is a major anatomical barrier to microorganisms. The surface layer of dead‚ hardened cells is relatively dry‚ and skin secretions make the surface somewhat acidic. When sweat evaporates‚ salt is left behind on the skin. All of these conditions (low moisture‚ low pH‚ and high salinity) prevent most microorganisms from growing and multiplying on the skin. The major medical challenge

High Fructose Corn Syrup vs. Sugar: Which is Better? High Fructose Corn Syrup is commonly known as the cost-effective sweetener used in most processed foods and drink beverages‚ making it popular for production and caused it to sweep over the sweets industry.

in-line stabilization of the neck. If you find food‚ blood‚ vomitus‚ or other debris‚ suction the airway quickly to prevent aspiration. To better remove secretions‚ you may need to carefully logroll the patient to his side. Manually stabilize his neck and spine as you do so. If the patient can’t maintain a patent airway because of copious secretions‚ an impaired level of consciousness‚ or other critical injuries‚ he’ll need endotracheal intubation.

1. What is the composition of latent print residue and how does it affect the viability of latent prints. The composition of latent finger print residue is the natural secretions of sweat from the eccrine glands that are present in epidermal ridges of the finger. It contains water‚ ammonia‚ urea‚ salts and sugars. They also contain lipids‚ amino acids and proteins. Other chemicals can be found in the sweat depending on what the person has ingested. Developing fingerprints takes time and patience
