Cardiac Cycle The cardiac cycle is the sequence of events that occur in the heart during one heart beat. It is how the heart operates, and what exactly happens when it contracts and relaxes. The heart is equipped with four chambers and one-way valves that work with precision to pump blood to and from the body. The heart regulates blood volume to support efficient circulation to the cells, tissues, organs, and systems. It provides oxygen and nutrients to the bodies tissue while also removing metabolic waste from cells to disposal sites. It is ultimately responsible for many homeostatic actives that keep us alive and well. It beats roughly seventy-five beats per minute, which is less than one beat per second. During the single beat, the heart goes through a series of steps that is ultimately called the cardiac cycle. There are two phases that take place during this…

Water is how everyone lives, even plants, animals, and of course humans. Well what is a water cycle? Precipitation is how the water cycle starts, it is how water moves through the earth. The water from the Earth is always in movement, and the Earth's water cycle, also is known as the hydrologic cycle. This describes all the movement of the water, above and below on Earth's surface. The water cycle describes a continuous pattern of exchanged water having the cycle over and over again. Lakes,…

important to be well aware of the menstrual cycle and the irregularities and infections that can exist in the female anatomy. The menstrual cycle occurs in the female reproductive system and allows women to become pregnant. Women have the chance to face menstrual irregularities and premenstrual syndrome. Some cases of menstrual irregularities are known as Abnormal Uterine Bleeding (AUB). AUB occurs when the uterus has more blood than the regular monthly period. These anayulatory cycles can have…
In the cell cycle, there are many phases. These are always monitored for being properly functioning. For example, if a DNA strand is missing, it will be noticed in the process. This is what is called the NORMAL cell cycle. In the CANCER cell cycle however, things are a bit different. All cells go through a cycle, from the G0, to the M phase (mitosis). The initial phase, G0, is where cells “rest”, maintaining normal, non-division related functions. Cancer cells usually cannot or do not enter G0,…
It has the biggest amount of carbon on the planet. Terrestrial ecosystems such as plants, animals, soil, and microorganisms are all the organic compounds that ingest, create, and store carbon. From the atmosphere, plants use photosynthesis to create energy, which also becomes an energy source for animals that eat the plants. When those animals die, their bodies decay into the soil, which is how carbon is stored into the soil for many years. Deep-water formation can mix the soil and the deep…
The purpose of my project is to educate young women about the menstrual cycle and proper hygiene in both developed and third world countries through an interactive presentation because, on average 52% of the female population is reproductive and many are not aware of what is actually going on in their bodies (SSW). I’m proposing this because there are so many women, young and old that do not understand what their body is doing when they get older, nor do they know what to do or how to react…
Background According to Wagmiller, 45.3% of Americans who lived in poverty for at least half of their childhood will remain in poverty. The problem becomes even more acute when discussing African Americans since a single year of poverty can cause 27.1% to remain in poverty. This phenomena is known as the cycle of poverty and it runs counter to one of the ideals we hold sacred: meritocracy. Ideally, we would not see a correlation between a parent’s income level and the income level of the child.…
