While studying and learning about the blood portion of the cardiovascular system in BIO 211, we learned that major function of this particular system is transportation of oxygen, waste and nutrients throughout the body. However, the specific part of the circulatory system that I would like to focus on are the erythrocytes. The erythrocytes, located in our bloodstream and blood vessels, which have the function of transporting oxygen to all parts of the body when tissues become deoxygenated. The…

WARNING: Niacin Max may surprisingly set higher levels of your full potential and increase your overall body efficiency. Many products have been produced and their production has greatly increased over the years due to continuous exploitation of new research techniques and needs in every field of life. Irrespective of the products and ideas born, the human needs of 21st century are endless and cardinal. It’s the creativity…

proven to be effective, because as altitude increases and the pressure exerted by oxygen decreases, the partial pressure of gases in the body decrease. This change in pressure elicits physiological changes in the body, such as an increase in red blood cell count. Ventilatory acclimatization is an advantageous adaptation to a change in altitudes by protecting the alveolar partial pressure of oxygen. In sum, altitude training may be highly beneficial to elite athletes, but it does not come without…

Why performance enhancing drugs should not be banned in sports. Performance enhancing drugs, such as anabolic steroids, blood doping and hGH(human Growth Hormone) have been found to be used in sports since as early as 776BCLee, (Yu-Hsuan, 2006), where the Ancient Greeks used opium juice in the early Olympics for an advantage in their sport (Sportsanddrugs.procon.org, 2016). PED’s have the potential to drastically alter the state of the human body(Health.nsw.gov.au, 2016). Athletes in today’s…

alterations in the conveyment of oxygen in the blood, pulmonary ventilation, usage of oxygen at tissue level, movement of oxygen from blood to tissues and lastly lung volume and pulmonary diffusing capacity (Martin et al., 2008). Inborn lowlanders have their typical red blood cell counts alternating from 5 to 8 million per cubic millimetre in comparison to 4.5 million at low elevation (Hurtado, 1964). In conjunction with a rise in the red blood cells, the haemoglobin is increased at high…

respiratory system is a vital factor of gas exchange due to its structure. The structure provides an efficiency to the process due gas exchange requiring an efficient system. Gas exchange requires an efficient system because it is a process through which blood circulates around the body, collects oxygen, delivers the oxygen to the organs that require it and releases carbon dioxide. Oxygen enters the body, and carbon dioxide exits the body in opposite the direction. Gas exchange occurs across a…

By advancing the view of particular organs, blood vessels or tissues, contrast materials aid physicians identify medical…

because they don’t produce enough red blood cells, prematurely gray hair, walk unsteadily, are short of breath, endure chronically swollen tongues, and suffer from numbness in their hands and feet. The new wave of research began after World War I, and doctors now took advantage of scientific method and new medical technologies. Doctors examined blood samples of anemic patients and found that they had low amounts of red blood cells. To try and fix this, they used blood transfusions.…
