I learned that when it seems like babies are copying what you are doing, an example being sticking out their tongue, they are copying you but they do not know they are doing it. That is called unconscious mimicry. Crying is the key to a baby’s survival. It is the only way they can get someone’s attention to do something for them since they cannot do things for themselves. An interesting fact was that at three weeks old baby’s most active muscles are the ones that control their eye, however they…

Abstract Objectives: The anticonvulsant effect of cannabinoid compound illustrated in various models of seizure and epilepsy. On the other hand, there are controversial findings about the role of large conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channels in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. Also, there is no data regarding the effect of co-administration of cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptor agonists and BK channels antagonists in the acute models of seizure in mice. In this study, the effects of…

various developmental characteristics we learned in class. Some of these characteristics include the palmar reflex which was immediately demonstrated as soon as I attempted to place a finger on the palm of his hand. The symmetrical tonic reflection was gone and not demonstrated as we have learned in class, about how as the child develops, various reflexes begin to disappear. The stepping reflex was also…

esophagus (Rubin et al 1990). If left untreated it could potentially lead to some esophageal problems which can include ulcers, bleeding, narrowing, and Barrett’s esophagus (Rubin et al 1990). Some of the factors that contribute to Gastro-esophageal Reflex Disease are hiatal hernia, obesity, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, Hypercalcemia, Scleroderma, and systemic…

't understand what was happening in front of me. In the emergency room, I watched my mother lay in front of me strapped to more machines than I could count at the time. I had so many questions. How could a dishwasher electrocute my mother? What is Reflex…

A 42-year-old male is admitted to the ICU for septic shock and hypotension. Vital signs include heart rate of 115 beats/min, respiratory rate 22 breaths/min, blood pressure of 82/40 mmHg, and oxygen saturation of 88% on 2L nasal cannula. A vasopressor is needed to address this patient’s hypotension. Prior to placement of an arterial line at the radial artery, which of the following describes the most appropriate diagnostic test? A. Instruct the patient to flex the elbow to 90 degrees while the…

1. Amphetamine abuse can cause various symptoms, for example, ludicrous misconceptions, a higher inclination to violence, extreme mood swings and hallucinations. Akin to amphetamine psychosis, paranoid schizophrenia demonstrates an immense resemblance. Amphetamine has the ability to keep the user awake for to 4 days which can cause irritability, aggression and paranoia. Therefore, conjectures have been made about amphetamine psychosis and paranoid schizophrenia having a common base, the…

Now, people can do some basic experiment on cells, but it can not reflex the complex reaction inside the body. For example, people have tried to establish a model of mouse’s brain which operate in 10 seconds, but the speed of model was 10 times slower than the original in fact. This model was designed by the most powerful…

repeated and reinfoced for many times until it becomes a habit. There are three behavioural learning theories that can explan how human learn new behaviour. The first theory is Classical Conditioning. Classical conditioning depends on unconditioned reflex responses (Coon & Mitterer, 2008). It helps human to develop emotional responses. The example is it easier for people to learn the fearful reactions if its associated with pains as the stimuli (Pressley & McCormick, 2007).The second theory is…
