Case Study 20: The Digestive and Urinary Systems 1) Marissa‚ a newborn with a cleft lip and palate‚ is the third child of Juan and Maria. Both Juan and Maria are “visually alarmed” at Marissa’s appearance; however‚ Juan is more distant and reserved. Maria is very concerned with Marissa’s wellbeing and future and seems to take blame for Marissa’s physical condition. 2) The incidence of cleft lip (CL) with or without cleft palate (CP) is approximately 1 in 800 live births. The incidence of CP alone

the night at bars and nightclub aren’t wondering how alcohol affects their nervous system. The main goal is to get drunk and have a good time. Yet alcohol inhibits the brain’s ability to send signals to the spinal cord and nerve endings. The nervous system slows down greatly because it is absorbed right into the blood stream. Alcohol works the same as a sedative without the benefit of going through your digestive system. Because it enters directly into your blood stream‚ it is very dangerous. Your

are several different organ systems in the human body. Two of those systems are the digestive system and the urinary system. Both systems remove waste from the body but in an entirely different way. They also maintain homeostasis within our blood stream. Both systems are critical for survival. This paper will describe how each of those systems works on its own and also how they work together to maintain homeostasis for the body. How the Urinary and Digestive Systems Work Together to Maintain

The Endocrine System Controls many body functions ~exerts control by releasing special chemical substances into the blood called hormones ~Hormones affect other endocrine glands or body systems Derives its name from the fact that various glands release hormones directly into the blood‚ which in turn transports the hormones to target tissues via ducts. Exocrine glands-transport their hormones to target tissues via ducts. Endocrine glands- secrete hormones into the bloodstream The Endocrine

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM The primary function of the respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body. The respiratory system does this through breathing. When we breathe‚ we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This exchange of gases is the respiratory system’s means of getting oxygen to the blood. Respiration is achieved through the mouth‚ nose‚ trachea‚ lungs‚ and diaphragm. Oxygen enters the
Premium Respiratory system Oxygen
Anatomy and Physiology of Respiratory System Overview Cells in the body require oxygen to survive. Vital functions of the body are carried out as the body is continuously supplied with oxygen. Without the respiratory system exchange of gases in the alveoli will not be made possible and systemic distribution of oxygen will not be made possible. Thetransportation of oxygen in the different parts of the body is accomplished by the blood of the cardiovascular system. However‚ it is the respiratory

A journey of a sausage roll through the digestive system A sausage roll is made up of puff pastry and sausage meat. The pastry is made up of carbohydrates‚ fat and a very small amount of protein‚ the sausage meat is made up of fat‚ and a small amount of carbohydrates and protein.

Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac
