Circulatory system

The scientific term which is used to describe the temperature control in the body is called hypothalamus. Hypothalamus begins in your brain since your brain makes the choices for your body. This is very important because if you're too cold you can start shivering for long periods of time which can lead up to hypothermia. On the other hand, if you are too hot you and start to sweat a lot it can lead up to avoid disease. Here are the 3 different that your body can make in these tough situations.…

The cardiovascular system is the system in which it helps to circulate blood throughout your entire body. However, that's not its only function. It also helps to transport both oxygen and carbon dioxide, hormones, numerous cells, and also nutrients to the body's tissues and organs. This system consists of the heart, blood, and also blood vessels. The heart is a muscular structure that helps push the blood to flow throughout the body. It is composed of three layers the pericardium (around or…

To understand the collapse of the heart, first, the heart rate must be well understood. The heart rate in a fish is a combination of the intrinsic heart rate and the extrinsic modulations that act on it, such as excitatory adrenergic stimulations and inhibitory cholinergic stimulations (Nilsson, 1983). With the hypothesis that intrinsic heart rate might be the limiting factor, many have attempted to study the intrinsic cardiac functioning to further the understanding of the mechanical properties…

Abstract Whens humans exercise, their oxygen supply needs to be increased in order to produce the energy needed to sustain this workload. Humans will use a variety of cardio-respiratory mechanisms in order to supply and meet the oxygen levels the body needs during exercise. In this study we wanted to see how different individuals respond to exercise, specifically how long they can work and how efficiently they work. We predicted that females who exercise will have a higher relative-VO2, higher…

results on its impact to health, life, and the human body. Many studies have been done regarding the effects of repetitive participation in vigorous physical activities and the changes in the human body, especially in respects to the cardiovascular system and the observed changes of myocardial structure and function (Baggish & Wood 2011). But what is the impact of these changes? It is well known that exercise benefits the heart which, as important as it is, is a muscle and thus can be…

They can affect your urinary tract system and can cause several problems. They can form when minerals crystallize and get stuck together. Symptoms include pain in the back and/or side, pain when urinating, red or brown urine, nausea, urinating in small amounts, and cloudy urine. The treatments…

Cardiovascular Response: When exercising the muscles requires a constant supply of oxygen, it is the hearts job to make sure there is enough oxygen being pumped round the body for the muscles, the heart has to pump harder and faster as more oxygen is required to get round the body to the muscles in use otherwise they will fatigue quicker. If this is repeated regularly, then over time the heart will become stronger as will become more used to the higher demands. At the start of exercise, the…

The basic function of the human heart is to circulate blood around the body. It functions with the right ventricle, which pumps blood to the lungs, and the left ventricle, which pumps oxygenated blood throughout the whole body. Some children are born with a single ventricle defect, which means that they only have one ventricle working. There are three types of medical deficiencies attributed to a single ventricle defect: Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), Pulmonary Atresia/Intact…

Clear! The physics behind the electrical life savers, defibrillators “Defibrillation has become an integral part of the emergency response routine. In fact, the American Heart Association considers defibrillation a basic life support skill for paramedics and rescue workers.” (DIRECT QUOTE) The human heart is arguably the most vital organ of the human body, as its coordinated and controlled two-part pumping is necessary to supply blood to the entire body. This supply rate is regulated by the…
