of intubation‚ as the subglottis cannot stretch to accommodate the endotracheal tube (ETT). While many acquired SGS happen from 2 weeks to 10 years old‚ the majority of these are before the age of 1 (Santer & D’Alessandro‚ 2016). Anatomy and Physiology: In an individual not requiring a tracheostomy‚ oxygen would enter through the nose or mouth and into the trachea. There is a natural gag reflex‚ coughing and swallowing capabilities that protect

Physiology of fitness Acute exercise lasts for the length of a training session. During this time our bodies respond to the exercise and physical stress of the physical activity in lots of different ways. These are called acute responses. Acute responses immediate responses to exercise‚ such as an increase in body temperature and heart rate. Musculoskeletal response The musculoskeletal system allows and enables the body to move through a system of muscles‚ bones‚ tendons‚ cartilage and

Analyzing the differences in carbon dioxide output in the field cricket (Gryllus bimaculotus) and house cricket (Acheta domestica). Discussion In the experiment‚ the field cricket (Gryllus bimaculotus) and house cricket (Acheta domestica) were tested for their carbon dioxide output. The results showed that the field cricket produced significantly more carbon dioxide than the house cricket. As a species that flies‚ exists outdoors and is larger than the house cricket‚ it follows that the field

Introduction Astrand-Rhythmic test is a test conducted to find the maximal oxygen uptake also known as the VO2max of an athlete. It can be used on elite athletes and individual athletes. This test helps to measure the ability to perform. The test can be done on an ergometer or on a treadmill. The measurement of the VO2max is the best measure of the cardiorespiratory system. This is important information as it indicates the body’s ability to transport and consume oxygen. There are two ways to measure

Foliar and Root Anatomy of Evergreen Tree‚ Citrus Limon (Rutaceae) Abstract: Foliar and root anatomy were obtained from a Citrus Limon to be studied upon and the main focus were the stem‚ petiole‚ leaf and root. Plant material was obtained from Manila Seeding Bank Foundation Inc. and was brought to Ateneo De Manila University. Sections were subjected to staining and dehydration‚ after which they were viewed under a light microscope and measured using a light microscope. The young stem has a periderm

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF HUMAN HEART The human heart is a cone shape‚ hollow‚ muscular organ located in the mediastinum between the lungs. It is a about the size of an adult fist. The heart rests on the diaphragm‚ tilting forward and to the left in the client’s chest. Each beat of the heart pumps about 60ml of blood‚ or 5L/min. During strenuous physical activity‚ the heart can double the amount of blood pumped to meet the increased oxygen needs of the peripheral tissues. ANTERIOR VIEW
