The different chemicals that were used in this experiment were Pilocarpine, Atropine Sulfate, Epinephrine, Digitals, Potassium, Sodium, and calcium ion concertation. Pilocarpine stimulates the effect of parasympathetic nerve stimulation by enhancing acetylcholine release. Atropine Sulfate is a drug that blocks the effect of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine which is liberated by the parasympathetic nerve endings. Cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle are both different in functionally and in fine…

In all my years of growing up, I was raised to be a strong, mature adult with enough perseverance to go around the world. In all complete honesty, that is how everyone in this world should be raised; having the strength to push through the absolute limits without passing the thought of giving up or throwing it all away due to weakness in the mind. Giving up is something that should rarely visit the human brain unless it is completely necessary; it should always be a last resort. From a personal…

Abstract Respiration for life and respiration for speech while similar are very different. The two roles of the respiratory use the same structures and muscles yet they have very different outcomes. One results in breathing which is vital to life while the other produces sounds that make communication between two individuals easier. Therefore, the structures and muscles in the respiration for life help to deliver oxygen to the different parts of the body. Along with this, the main function of…

Barrett’s esophagus is a complication in the esophagus from a reflux disease predisposing patients to esophageal adenocarcinoma. Esophageal adenocarcinoma is a tumor in the esophagus that has increased up more than 7-fold over the past few decades. Since there has been such a significant increase in esophageal adenocarcinoma, the topic of endoscopic screening and surveillance for GERD and Barrett’s esophagus is being heavily debated. Barrett’s esophagus is a result of chronic gastro-esophageal…

Have you noticed that Physical Education seems to be a narrowing field? I strongly believe that there is a reason we need to keep PE in schools and in society today. Unfortunately, I feel as though many of the educators and teachers today aren’t taking it seriously. They aren’t doing enough to help the students become physically active, instead, the teachers just sit there because it is a job to them, nothing more. If the teachers had a better personal philosophy on what they actually want to…

Most practitioners of aroma-therapeutics hold this opinion: THE most effective use of essential oils for health is for the prevention and treatment of infectious illness. Aromatherapy in the USA is still mostly relegated to New Age "hocus pocus", and some pretty-smelling little bottles of liquid. However, in recent years scientific researchers have compiled HUGE amounts of data regarding the effectiveness of essential oils in combating bacterial and viral infections. The oils protect us from…

Kennedy was no stranger to ghosts. They were a familiar part of her childhood, woven into all of her images of her old house. She had distant, dusty memories of the hushed voices in her attic that her mother brushed off as imagination. Their house was situated on the edge of the town’s oldest cemetery, and Kennedy’s view each morning was rows and rows of graves. She, her little brother, and the neighbor boys would even play in there before dark most nights – hide and seek mostly, but sometimes…

Respiratory systems vary from species to species but the basic anatomy for Serpentes suborder is straightforward. The average Serpentes respiratory system has two external nares, two internal nares, and a nasal cavity. While Serpentes have a nose, their nose is only meant to be another pathway for respiration. They are not used to smell like a human nose is used for. Serpentes have a glottis that is a vertical slit because it is always closed. The glottis is situated right behind the tongue and…
