Introduction: (Total: 10 pts) 1. Transpiration is critical for plant physiology. In your own words‚ what is transpiration‚ and why is this important in plants? (2 pts) Transpiration is the evaporation or loss of water through the pores (stomata) on the underside of leaves. Transpiration is vital to plants because it not only allows the plant to cool itself‚ but it also changes the osmotic pressure of cells allowing for nutrient transfer between cells‚ and between roots and stem. 2. Plants can

The study of the functions of organisms comes in many forms-plant physiology‚ cell physiology‚ microbial physiology‚ and animal physiology‚ to name a few. Human physiology focuses on how the human body works. 2. What does pathophysiology refer to? Pathophysiology refers to when normal body function is disrupted-to better

strongly consider an Exercise Physiology degree. It is a specialization within the kinesiology field where experts gain a thorough understanding of how our bodies react to physical activity as well the effects of sustained physical activity on the body. It is a great field if you are serious about exercise and would like to work in a field with numerous job opportunities that align with

A critical review of contemporary and popular reports within the ‘lay’ literature on the use of nutritional supplements for performance benefits. There is an endless list of ergogenic aids that claim to enhance sports performance that are religiously supplemented by amateur and professional athletes. Almost half of the general population have reported taking at least one form of dietary supplement‚ and the vast majority‚ if not all professional athletes use legal supplements‚ with a certain

coach told me‚ “you might fall behind‚ but the world keeps moving.” Exercise is something that has been talked about way before our time‚ but I will be writing about how exercise physiology has changed the world. The first thing I want to talk about is the positive and overall outcome of the growth of exercise physiology through science. Secondly‚ I will be discussing some of the negative effects including:
