Olfactory system

complete neurological assessment, most of the cranial nerves are evaluated to help determine the proper functioning of the brain (Neurological Examination, 2014). Each cranial nerve is paired and is present in each side of the brain. Cranial nerve I (Olfactory) is the sensory nerve of smell. Cranial nerve II (Optic) is the sensory nerve that carries vision to the brain. Cranial nerve III (Oculomotor) is responsible for pupil size and certain movements of the eye. Cranial nerve IV (Trochlear) is…

Systems thinking (ST) is a concept to understand how a complex system (e.g. health management) functions as a whole by examining how the components (subsystems) of the entire system are connected and interact dynamically instead of as individual stakeholders. Historically, ST was developed and used by various disciplines in the twentieth century to transfer methods across disciplines known as interdisciplinary (Peters, 2014). Multiple disciplines can collaborate about methods and conceptual…

Our body as we know it is a complex system as well as the class room environment where skill learning takes place. This is due to the multiple moving parts inside the systems. Complex systems also have other facets to them such as having multiple levels to them, having attractor states to do things in certain ways, having self-emergent discovery, affordances constraints, as well as things working together independently but together as a whole. Our bodies being complex as well as the class room…

Helen Keller essay By:Tiarra Sorey It is often said that the human body system is very complex, all of the many different structures has its normality just as much as it has its disorders. The eye is the organ of vision, the process in which vision is produced can be affected by things such as increased pressure, exposure, or just simply age. When this process is affected eye disorders such as glaucoma, cataracts, myopia, astigmatism, and many more, come into place. The ear…

She experienced stumbling gait preceded by heat intolerance which led to a tendency to fall. She also experienced a periodically change in her visual acuity. Two months ago she had a real stressful time: preparing the upcoming exams for her…

As a rule, the gill area is greater in fast-moving crabs (Portunids) than in sluggish bottom dwellers; decreases progressively from wholly aquatic, to intertidal, to land species; and is greater in young crabs than in older crabs. Often the gills are enclosed in protective chambers, and ventilation is provided by specialized appendages that create the respiratory current. As in cephalopod mollusks, oxygen utilization is relatively high—up to 70 percent of the oxygen is extracted from the water…

Introduction Systems thinking, as defined by today’s scholars, has been around for decades and continues to grow as researchers turn to the past, present, and future to gain a better understanding. In fact, concepts found in systems thinking go back to the time of Aristotle (Mele, Pels, & Polses, 2010; Ing, 2013). This method points out how systems have no ends, are all interconnected, and that it is impossible to completely comprehend anything (Senge, 2014). Since humans tend to want to…

The cranial nerves are made up of twelve categories with different functions. These categories are numbered with Roman numerals. The first cranial nerve is the Olfactory nerve which is involved in the sense of smell. The function of sense of smell works when the receptors in the epithelium of inside the nose sends signals to the brain (World of anatomy and physiology, 2007). The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve which is involved with the ability to see. The third cranial nerve is the…

Many wonder if vaccinations are really necessary or if they are even safe. Vaccinations are what allow people the American Dream because it saves lives which enables an individual to achieve happiness. While vaccinations help prevent diseases in America, some believe the potential harmful effects carry too high a risk. Limiting vaccinations would cause an outbreak in diseases because vaccines prevent the disease from forming. Vaccinations have lowered the risk of getting a disease, but the…

My History As A Writer Throughout my lifetime I have come to love and absolutely hate writing. The reasoning of the assignment or topic has a lot to do with my affinity and disgust. Although learning new things, like writing, was something that I loved doing in elementary school, that all changed when it was daily implemented. As an art form I recently come to love writing down my thoughts, ideas, opinions and stories. A struggle for me while attempting to write an essay or report is grammar.…
