The Anterior Compartment of the forearm This paper will discuss the anterior compartment into details and the nerves and arteries that innervations it. The anterior compartment composed of three layers namely: the superficial, the immediate and the deep layer. The superficial layer consists of four muscles i.e pronator teres, flexor carpi radialis, palmaris longus, and flexor carpi ulnaris. The immediate layer comprised of one muscle, the flexor digitorum superficial muscle. The deep layer…

1. The three major layers that make up healthy skin are the epidermis, dermis, and the subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis). The epidermis is a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium that resists abrasion and reduces water loss. It consists of four distinct cell types and five layers. The dermis, the second major skin region containing strong, flexible connective tissue. It is composed of dense irregular connective tissue. Also, the dermis contains the blood vessels, nerve fibers and lymphatic…

movement has been completed, the cells will configure themselves into the three different layers. Each of these layers will have an assign role in the inside, outside, and the middle of the process. The three layers will help to develop tissues and organs. Starting on the blastula’s vegetal pole, cells at pole will detach from the ring of blastula cells and move to the blastocoel. The movement of the cells will cause the vegetal pole to pinch inward, moving the vegetal pole halfway towards the…

The skin is said to be the largest performing organ in the body due to its three layered skin which all perform different tasks simultaneously. The epidermis (outer layer) and the dermis (inner layer) are the two main top layers of the skin followed by the lower subcutaneous tissue. The epidermis is the main component of the skin because it contains millions of important cells called melanocytes (Gohara and Perez 1). These melanocytes produce melanin which provides the skin with pigment (skin…

Planaria are triploblastic acoelmate flatworms that inahabit marine and terrestrial environments and belong to the phylum Platyhelminthes. Though they are relatively complex creatures, as they possess an extremely branched gastrovascular cavity, a brain, hermaphroditic reproductive abilities, Planaria are best known for their regenerative capabilities (Rink, 2012). This is not a recent discovery, however. Peter Simon Pallas first described this regeneration 230 years ago in 1766, and Dalyell…

Understanding the anatomical map of structures such as the phrenic nerve is vital for medical treatments. G.S. Muller Botha mapped the phrenic nerve and described her findings in The Anatomy of the Phrenic Nerve Termination and the Motor Innervation of the Diaphragm. Sleep apnea is a common disorder caused by under stimulation of the diaphragm from the phrenic nerve, O. Oldenburg and team described alternative treatments for the apnea in Effects of unilateral phrenic nerve stimulation on tidal…

I pick the integumentary system. The organs with this system are skin, hair, nails, and oil glands. The skin is the body’s outer covering and forms a barrier to protect the body from chemicals, disease, and physical change. Hair and nails protect it from infections. The oil glands produce sweat and moisturize the skin. This elps with dehydration and regulate body temperature, and throws away waste. A few possible ailments are *acne* where the skin on the body become clogged and look like…

Name: Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease AKA: Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) – Common Organ: Cysts form in the proximal convoluted tubules, Bowman’s capsule and collecting ducts of the kidneys. With time, the cysts enlarge. Patients can also present with cysts in the liver, pancreas, lungs, spleen, ovaries, seminal vesicles, testes, epididymis, thyroid, uterus, and bladder. Labs: Proteinuria (50% of patients), azotemia, hematuria, anemia Signs and Symptoms: Abdominal and…

The heart is one of the major organs in the body that is essential. The heart is considered a pump that helps the blood flow, continuously, throughout the body. The heart is located under the rib cage, between the lungs, and more on the left side of the breastbone. It has two major coronary arteries, electrical impulses, four chambers, and four valves to help the blood flow one way. Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium from the superior and inferior vena cava. When the right atrium…

Epidermis is the tough outermost layer of the skin, and is made up of the stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale. It is mainly comprised of the protein keratin, squamous epithelial cells and melanin. The epidermis acts as a waterproof barrier and the melanin absorbs ultra violet light to prevent burns, inflammation, and swelling of the skin. Dermis is the lower layer of the skin that contains collagen, nerve fibers, lymph vessels, and blood…
