Human heart

Extreme cold and heat temperatures can have severe consequences on the body as well as hinder the physiological processes of the human body in innumerable ways. When the human body is experiencing extreme levels of Heat; such as a heat wave, damage can occur to the brain, heart, lungs, kidneys, and liver. In cold weather, the body can lose heat faster than it is produced, which uses up stored energy and can lead to hypothermia. Hypothermia happens at extremely low temperatures while not wearing…

Before the sixteenth century, the practice of medicine bore no relation to the practice of medicine today. Medical practices rested solely on the writings of the second-century physician Galen because it gave a rational explanation on how the heart, liver, veins, arteries, and lungs provided nourishment for the body. In addition, the strong influence of the Catholic Church on the Western world only made small attempts to discover the world by experimenting frugal. Instead, Galenism became a…

In Joyas Volardores, Brian Doyle uses imagery and facts to compare and contrast the hearts of hummingbirds, whales, and humans, physically and emotionally. The initial reading gives the reader a surface view of comparing the hearts of these animals, it is not until I really analyzed the last paragraph that I saw the deeper meaning Doyle was trying to exemplify. Through size comparisons he shows…

Stage training is an organized and systematic method of cardiorespiratory training that gives athletes and clients defined parameters for exercise intensity. These parameters will illicit specific physiological adaptations while decreasing the risk of overtraining and injury (Clark, Sutton, & Lucett, 2014). It is important to properly understand what each training zone is designed to do and how they should be implemented to maximize their effects. Hans Selye’s theory of general adaptation…

There are different stages that happen to a human body after someone dies. The stages goes by hours after death. In the first hour all the muscles in the body relax, which is called primary flaccidity. The eyes start to lose their tension, the pupils dilate, jaw usually will fall open.

Although human and frog hearts do not look the exact same, they do act very similar. Human hearts have four chambers: two atria and two ventricles. Contrarily, frog hearts have only three chambers: two atria and one ventricle. Frogs are helpful in scientific research of the heart and its many functions because human hearts can obviously not be used. In this case, the frog hearts are helpful in determining the effects of different chemicals on the heart. Certain chemicals and agents effect the…

anatomy, oral cavity, neck, superficial muscles, thoracic cavity, abdominal cavity, and both male and female reproductive systems. By studying the systems of the pig, it helps understand the systems of the humans because humans and pigs are both mammals which we can assume that systems of pig and human are similar. Results The sex of pig was able to be determined by checking the urogenital opening. The major difference between male and femal pig is the location of urgenital opening.(Figure 1)…

Human body Today I will be talking about how the systems work together. One example is the the skeletal and the muscular system, they work together by Your bones and muscles work together through a series of impulses and signals communicated between the brain and skeletal muscles. In order to move, the nervous system then sends signals a skeletal muscle to contract. The muscular system is the mechanical force behind the digestive system. Beginning when you take a bite, your muscular system aids…
