The kidney is made up of nephrons‚ which are a kidney’s functional units. These nephrons collect fluid filtered from the blood. The kidney connects to the renal artery‚ renal‚ vein‚ and ureter. Purified blood leaves the kidney using the renal vein‚ urine leaves using a ureter and the renal artery carries blood from the aorta to the kidney. The nephron has a cup-shaped nephric capsule that surrounds a cluster of capillaries called the glomerulus. A good deal of fluid from the blood filters into the

Sports Massage Benefits to the Lymphatic system The Structure and Function of the Lymphatic System The lymphatic system originates from blood plasma and is a constant circulation. It consists of complex capillary networks which collect the lymph in various organs. There is an elaborate system of collecting vessels which travel the lymph from the capillaries through lymphatic vessels‚ lymph nodes‚ larger lymphatic vessels to lymph trunks and finally to the large veins of the neck at the junction

Cellular organelle structure and function Nucleus The Nucleus is comprised of the pore perforated nuclear membranes‚ nucleoplasm‚ chromatin and the nucleolus at the core. The nuclear envelope consists of an inner and outer membrane that forms the outer structure. Contained within the nuclear membrane are nucloplasm which is the fluid medium in which the chromatin is present‚ chromatin being the genetic material. At the core of the nucleus is the nucleolus‚ where ribosomes are synthesized. The

Functions and structure of plant terpenes Terpenes are an enormous class of organic compounds‚ that are produced by a wide variety of plants and fungi‚ especially conifers. Terpenes are also produced by some of the living organisms‚ like swallowtail butterflies. They emit terpenes from their osmeterium. Terpenes are important materials for a plant as components of its body and as a material to protect it from external enemies since it has a strong smell and colorless. Terpenes are found in biological

Hearing including Ear Structures and Brain Structures The ear‚ an organ for hearing and balance‚ is anatomically divided into three sections: the outer ear‚ the middle ear‚ and the inner ear (Henderson). Each section contains many distinct parts that assist in the task of detecting and interpreting sound which is otherwise known as hearing (Henderson). The outer ear is composed of the auricle (pinna) and the external auditory canal (ear canal) (Sisco). The outer ear functions to catch sound waves

The cell membrane is made up of fats‚ proteins‚ lipids‚ and carbohydrates‚ and is a permeable structure. However‚ this permeation is very discerning because it only lets certain things pass through it. The cell membrane has a layer of phospholipids with hydrophobic ends and hydrophilic tops. The “tails” are made out of phosphate‚ while the “heads” are made up of two strings of fatty acids. There are two layers of these phospholipids‚ called the “bilayer”‚ and the tips of each phospholipid are facing
