certain distance. This paper also aims at reducing road accidents by detecting consumption of alcohol by the driver. This can be implemented using alcohol sensor module which contains skin sensor‚ breath alcohol sensor and proximity sensor. The skin sensor and breadth alcohol sensor detects the presence of alcohol content and the proximity sensor helps in detecting any kind of malpractice. The novelty of this paper is to effectively reduce the energy consumption of the street lights by controlling

heart block? What would the EKG tracing of someone with third-degree heart block look like? Third-degree block‚ also known as third-degree atrioventricular block is “a cardiac conduction system where there is no conduction through the atrioventricular node” (Budzikowski 2014). The patient will have severe bradycardia with independent atrial and ventricular rates. These patients may suffer from ventricular standstill‚ which

Because of this‚ lymph is essentially recycled blood plasma. Lymphatic organs also play an important part in the immune system‚ having a considerable overlap with the lymphoid system. Lymphoid tissue is found in many organs‚ particularly the lymph nodes‚ and in the lymphoid follicles associated with the digestive system such as the tonsils. Lymphoid tissues contain lymphocytes‚ but they also contain other types of cells for support.[3] The system also includes all the structures dedicated to the circulation

Cancer is a very general term for over 100 diseases grouped together. There are many different types of cancer; almost anything in your system and body is susceptible to this disease. Your body is made up of millions of cells; normal cells grow and then divide into newer ones causing the old ones to die. When a person is growing‚ in the early stages of their life‚ cells divide faster than usual helping the individual grow. As a person becomes an adult‚ a lot of cells divide so they then can replace

filters lymph‚ filters the blood‚ and fights infections. Unfortunately‚ as the lymphatic system goes about its regular duties‚ cancer can appear in the lymph nodes. There are two ways cancer can appear in the lymph nodes of the lymphatic system. Cancer either starts there or spreads from somewhere else. Cancer that starts in the lymph nodes is called lymphoma.There are many types of lymphoma. One type is called Hodgkin’s lymphoma‚ “formerly known as Hodgkin’s disease” (Staff). In Hodgkin ’s lymphoma

lymph nodes in the neck. If you are worries about an unexperienced lump anywhere in your body‚ you are most likely to start off by going to your doctor but in most cases it will not be the disease since it is so rare. If the lymph glands stay enlarged with no other obvious cause they may refer you to a hospital for tests. One test that can be done is a lymph node biopsy and this will be able to show if it is enlarged by removing it and looking at it under the microscope. If the lymph node is close

6 Cardiovascular Physiology NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: 1. Define each of the following terms: • autorhymicity- The heart is autorhythmic. This means it generates its own rhythmic action potential independent of the nervous system. • sinoatrial node- is the impulse-generating (pacemaker) tissue located in the right atrium of the heart‚ and thus the generator of normal sinus rhythm. • pacemaker cells- are specialized cells that cause involuntary muscles and tissues to contract or dilate. • vagus

dermatologist when you get a mole removed from your head‚ only to find out after testing that it was positive for melanoma. I remember a minor surgery was performed on the neck and two lymph nodes were removed to be tested. Great news everybody‚ they were found to be cancer free! Now‚ stop and think how many lymph nodes are in your body. After many doctor visits for what was thought to be a sinus infection‚ I can remember the look on my dad’s face when we were scheduled to have an ultrasound performed
