Data regarding the cardiovascular system of older adults is slightly limited, due to the fact that older people are usually not included in clinical trials. However, enough research has been done to identify common physiological changes in the geriatric cardiovascular system, such as: increased heart weight; decreased number of myocardial cells with enlargement of remaining cells; increased left ventricle wall thickness; increased arterial stiffness; increased elastin levels; increased collagen…
This may cause accumulation of errors rapidly in the cell and its progeny. * Those in signaling (endocrine) machinery of the cell. This leads transmission of the error signals to nearby healthy cells as well. * Those that allow the cells to migrate and disrupt more healthy cells away from the primary site of origin. * Those that make the cell immortal so that the abnormal cell refuses to die. Hormonal changes Notable among these are changes in the female hormone levels estrogen. Excess…
UNIT 11 ASSIGNMENT 2 Anjelina Qureshi P3 Average Beats per Minute I took 3 reading of my beats per minute (BPM) to ensure I got an accurate result.
