Adreleane "fight or flight"
pupils dilate
inhibits flow of salvia
accels heart beat
dilates bronchi

"rest and response" (faint)
Stimulates flow of salvia
slows heartbeat
constricts bronchi
stimulates release of bile
contracts bladder |
|

Organs in digestive system |
R.U.Q
Liver (solid organ): helps food digest, produces a substance called bile, which aids in digestion.
Right Kidney: The primary function of the kidneys is the excretion of waste products resulting from protein metabolism and muscle contraction
Gall Bladder (hollow organ): connected to the underside of the liver, stores bile until required for digestion
Colon (large intenstine, hollow organs) the parts of food that cannot be adsorbed by the body are passed as waste products from the small intenstine to the large intenstine.
Pancreas (solid organ) : produces insulin and pancreatic juices that also aid in digestion
R.L.Q
Appendix
Colon
Small Intestine
Ureter
major vein and artery to right leg
L.U.Q
Stomach (hollow organ) secretes gastric juices that begin to convert food to a form that can be adsorbed by the body
Left Kidney:The primary function of the kidneys is the excretion of waste products resulting from protein metabolism and muscle contraction
Spleen (Solid organ): helps in the production of red blood cells and filtration
Colon
Pancreas (solid organs) produces insulin and pancreatic juices that also aid in digestion
L.L.Q
Colon
Small Intestine
Ureter
major vein and artery to left leg
|
|
Intercostals |
contract and open chest cavity
relax and closer chest cavity
|
|
Expiration |
Breathing out "positive pressure" active movement of air |
|
4 Blood components |
1. Red Blood Cells (erythocytes)
carry oxygen from heart and lungs to other organs
2. White Blood Cells (leukocytes)
part of the immune system, defend againgst disease, virsus, bacteria etc
3. Platelets
responsible for blood clotting, seals cuts and wounds and forms scabs
4 Plasma
clear liquid that the other 3 travel in |
