Kanesha Brown Anatomy and Physiology 251L The University of Southern Mississippi Nervous System What is paraplegia? Paraplegia is the paralysis than can affect all or part of the bottom portion of your body, meaning the legs and pelvic organs. Paraplegia is a spinal cord injury that results from damage to the vertebrae, ligaments and disks (Mayo Clinic, 2016) For an injury to cause paraplegia one would have to suffer a traumatic injury to the spinal cord that may cause your spine to fracture,…

The gastrointestinal (GI) framework is comprised of the GI tract in addition to accessory organs. Basically, the GI tract is a long empty tube that reaches out from your oral cavity where sustenance enters your body, by means of the throat, stomach, small digestive system, internal organ, rectum, lastly to the rear-end where undigested nourishment is removed. The frill organs incorporate the salivary organs, pancreas and liver. These emit vital chemicals into the digestive tract. The nerve…

Lacteals Lacteals absorb fats from food passing through the small intestine in the villi. Spleen The spleen is the largest organ in the lymphatic system, it is important for maintaining a balance between body fluids. It is located below the ribcage, above the stomach. The function of it is to filter the blood of any foreign invaders, provide a reservoir of oxygen (rich blood) and to dispose of worn out erythrocytes. They also remove old and damaged blood cells. It acts as storage for the red…

All animals are provided with the raw abilities to properly capture and digest their foods. The anatomy of an animal will provide evidence as to which of the three main categories it falls under: herbivore, omnivore, or carnivore. Carnivores have the abilities to subsist on only animal products. A carnivorous animal’s frame of mind revolves around their instinct to hunt. When spotting potential prey, carnivores immediately “pour out copious amounts of saliva” (Tobias). No digestive enzymes are…

Once the protons have crossed the membrane, they are secreted into the gastric fluid, which eventually becomes stomach acid. In moderation, stomach acid is a valuable contributor to aid in the process in digestion. However, when stomach acid is overproduced, it can irritate the esophagus and cause Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease or initiate the development of ulcers in the stomach and duodenum. Through regular use of proton pump inhibitors, acid reflux into…

mouth (top and bottom). Premolars - The teeth have cusps and are in front of the molars. Molars – Blunt cusps located at the back of the mouth. Thick mass of skeletal muscle covered in mucous membrane. Physiology Allows mechanical and chemical digestion to occur. It predominantly…

involved in the creation of the Enviropig come from two very different sources. The first gene was taken from the bacteria Escherichia Coli and codes for that’s species ability to create phytase. Phytase is an enzyme that allows for the breakdown and digestion of phytic acid, an indigestible form of phosphorous found in grains. The second gene was taken from mice and promotes the continuous secretion of proteins in the salivary glands. By combining the two genes together successfully within the…

There are two forms of inflammatory bowel disease. One is called Crohn’s Disease and the other is called Ulcerative Colitis. Crohn’s can occur in any region of the gastrointestinal track which includes ulceration, fissures and fistulas. Some of the symptoms of Crohn’s disease are diarrhea, rectal bleeding, fever, abdominal pain, fatigue, reduced appetite and weight loss. Some of the complications of Crohn’s disease are that overtime it forms scar tissues inside the gastrointestinal track which…

nucleus controls the cell activities inside the cell. Mitochondria are needing to give energy to the cell and tissue. The columnar and squamous epithelium cell are found in the lining of the oesophagus.The mitochondria and lysosomes is used in the digestion system as an organelle is that the lysosome act as an enzyme which helps to break down the food or any of the…

#And How Are The Best Essential Oils Produced? The processes involved in the extraction of the best essential oils from plant matter are fairly simple science. In steam distillation, the plant is placed in a special apparatus over boiling water and the steam passes through the plant and basically cooks it. The vapor produced by the steam traps the volatile aroma compounds, the mix is captured and cooled and the oils are then filtered out of the concoction and bottled. Expression is another…
