Lymphatic vessels eventually converge to empty back into the bloodstream via the right lymphatic duct, emptying into the right subclavian vein and the thoracic duct, emptying into the left subclavian vein. Lymphatic vessels on the right side of the head, neck, chest and the right upper limb converge into the right lymphatic duct while the rest of the body’s lymphatic vessels converge into the thoracic duct. The lymphatic organs, which consist of the tonsils, the spleen, the thymus and the lymph…

interact. Spoken language can be recognised through articulatory phonetics. Linguistic can be represented through articulator movements that in return make speech a way to transfer information. This can only happen with various parts of the chest, neck, and head. These various body parts are all part of the respiratory organs. The lungs and the muscles give assistance to the diaphragm and the muscles between the ribs help to create speech sounds. In order for humans…

“His brow is furrowed; the tendons in his neck are taut, as are the muscles in his nose and lips; and his eyes are focused on something in the distance. Despite this mental concentration, he stands in a relaxed contrapposto position, with his sling casually thrown over his left shoulder. This combination…

First off, the constants of this time period should be addressed. The number one thing that remained unchanged were the themes used in the art—biblical stories. Biblical stories have been used in a wide array of art since the Roman ages, and artists continued to use them throughout the Renaissance. They can be seen in pieces like “David”, “The Annunciation”, “Gates of Paradise”, and “The Tribute Money”. These pieces, while revolutionary in so many other ways, were still a product of what humans…

School administrators suck. When they informed me their system glitched and I was signed up for the wrong type of Anatomy class, I handled it rather well. When they told me that I couldn't switch and that I and I quote, 'will have to suck it up and deal with it,' I thought, I handled it just as well. Only if you count that the head of baby Cupid in front of the main building would be kicked into the parking lot and knocking a freshmen out cold, handling it well. I felt really guilty that,…

Rivers of Rhetoric I can feel the eyes of my peers on my neck and my cheeks are burning bright red. The buzzing from the fluorescent lights fog my thoughts as I squirm in my seat, not used to being confined to a typical elementary school desk. I can’t stop getting chills, not because of the incoming blast of fog chilled north coast air, but because I’m nervous of what Ms. Morton will say. Her lips are pursed as she looks my scrawny sixth grade self up and down before she blithely asks, “what…

Can you imagine life without having pets or not having a companion with you to make you feel better when you 're upset or sick? Imagine if you raised a dog since birth and took care of it as if it was your own child and one day animal control just takes them away because of the type of breed they are. For years there has been a stereotype on pit bulls,stories about them attacking people,and even now there are many myths about them that are not true. For example, according to the article “ Pit…

With the resent increase in interest in individuality, self expression, and achieving a desired self image, public interest in body modifications has also increased. Body modification is defined as the deliberate altering of the human anatomy or appearance; these alterations can range from small changes such as minor piercings and tattoos to major modifications such as implants and removals (The art and History of body modification, lightspeedmagazine.com).

Like race is a huge part of everybody’s story, Virginia Johnson remarked that also the anti-social behavior or racism, the negative side of differentiating races, plays a huge part in everybody’s life. When she was young, Washington was a very segregated city, and even though her father worked for the Navy Department, he had a long history of battling with racism in institutions. Same as the majority of coloured dancers, she found out that ballet was a very closed white world and she never…

characters are The Three Graces who are splendidly intertwined into one another. Focusing back on Venus, she expresses modest mannerisms which can be seen from the calmness of her raised hand with the subtle and relaxed contrapposto of her figure. Her head is slightly tiled towards one side of her body which shows the delicacy of the womanly persona. It is believed that the characteristics of Venus derives from a letter written by Marsilio Ficino to Lorenzo which uplifts Venus as the figure of…
