Since we have a good deal in common‚ it is very helpful for us to study these animals both anatomically and physiologically. We do this when we test medicines on pigs‚ perfect surgical procedures on pigs‚ and even when

Cervical cancer begins with the abnormal growth of cells lining the cervix. The cervix is located in the lower‚ more superficial‚ region of the uterus. The two types of cells that make up the cervix include nonkeratinizing‚ stratified squamous cells on the exocervix and mucus-secreting‚ columnar cells on the endocervix. The transformation zone contains the squamocolumnar junction where the columnar and the squamous cells meet. This area is the embryonic cell population that is involved in cervical

Kidney stones are a collection of proteins and mineral salts that aggregate into a solid crystalline structure. The stones structure is made of two phases‚ crystalline
