Anatomy

Skin A third-degree skin burn extends through the entire epidermis, dermis and hypodermis, but leaves the underlying muscle and bone tissue in a functional state. Skin is made up of three layers: the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. The epidermis is ectodermal in origin. It is relatively void of ECM except for the basal membrane and has a distinctive keratinized layer produced by keratinocytes. Other artifacts of the epidermis include melanocytes, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and sweat…

many different anatomical parts of your body and physiology to get the oxygen where it needs to go. There is also pathophysiology that will play a role in the system and the way that things may go wrong and oxygen may not get where it needs to be. Anatomy and Physiology of the Upper Airway Brining oxygen into the body There are two ways in which a person brings oxygen into the body:…

In Egypt, three men supposedly went in for a job interview and oddly were subjected to medical examinations. The doctor “discovered” that they all were suffering from a kidney infection requiring emergency surgery. They later woke up in the hospital missing a kidney (Bassoul). These types of stories were believed to be urban legend until true accounts like this surfaced. I wish the stories were just urban legend. There are also stories that involve kidnapped children as well as adults. In…

Comparative morphology is the study of the anatomical patterns of structures within an organism’s body and how it allows the taxonomical categorization of a species. The anatomy of an organism is significant to the functions of that particular body part of the organism (Kardong, 2015). To be able to compare the structures of an organism allows emphasis in particular themes of the vertebrae structures. The functional morphology of an organism includes the study of the relationships between…

Animal experimentation is the use of animals to test new drugs and products before they are used on humans to ensure that they are safe. This may seem to be a beneficial technique to humans, but it is the opposite for the animals. They live their lives in confining cages and suffer from extreme abuse and ultimately death. Animal testing has been an immense part of scientific research for years, but new technological resources of this generation prove that it is not only unethical but unnecessary…

Bleeding simply it's a process when the blood come out from anywhere in the body, due to any reason . Hemostasis: Prevention of blood loss after injury. Pathophysiology of hemostasis accrue by 3 main phases Vascular phase : which is the primary hemostasis by vasoconstriction of the arteries and vein injured. Platelet Phase: aggregation and stabilization of a hemostatic platelet on the site of injury. Coagulation phase (secondary…

just to survive. We want love. We want success. So we fight...to get those things. Anything else feels like death” (Season 7, Episode 21 “I Will Survive”). This is merely one quote from Meredith Grey―title character and series protagonist of Grey’s Anatomy―that depicts her hero-like qualities. The medical drama television series follows interns and residents as they become seasoned surgeons, through both their professional and personal lives. The show focuses on Meredith, who is the head of…

course, the technology for successful bionic integration was not unveiled for a few years after the book was written, but Perkowitz was not focusing on the bionics of it. Instead, he he chose to focus on the history that surrounded it and the human anatomy that the bionics would be inserted into. Perkowitz goes as far back as to Greek Mythology to talk about Hephaestus, the lame god of fire and how he created wings to assist him in his work (19). Perkowitz also tells that in the 1818 book…

Liberal education is often incorporated into universities’ undergraduate programs. It is an approach to learning that prepares individuals for complexity, diversity and change. Liberal education curriculum provides learning in multiple disciplines and also offers an in-depth study of a chosen major. Undergraduate programs inforce this broad education with general education courses that require me to remain open to new experiences, ideas and people. Liberal education encourages me to think beyond…

Physician-Scientists like Aristotle and Erasistratus have performed experiments on living animals. Many years later, Galen, another Greek Physician who had a major role in medicine history, experimented on many animals to advance the understanding of anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology (Hajar 1). In the twelfth…
