What is lung capacity? The total lung capacity (TIC) is the most air that you can inspire into your lungs. It is made up of the following: Tidal volume (TV): the usual amount of the air that you breathe in and out of your lungs with a normal breath. Secondly, the Inspiratory Reserve Volume (IRV); additional air that you can force into your lungs after you breathe in the tidal volume.There is also the Expiratory Reserve Volume (ERV): after you breathe out normally, the ERV is additional air that you
female deaths are linked to this dangerous beverage. It can be the body’s greatest enemy. Binge or Long-Term drinking can hurt heart muscles, making it nearly impossible for them to contract, and can prevent the protective white blood cells in the body from attacking bacterial invaders like they’re supposed to making it easier to catch infections and diseases. Not only does it affect the heart and blood cells, but it also hurts the bloodstream and flow. It increases the flow to the face, causing
ANATOMY OF THORASIC WALL The thorax is the upper part of the trunk, which consists of: a) External musculoskeletal cage (The thorasic wall) ; and b) Internal cavity (That contains heart, lungs, oesophagus, trachea, thymus etc.) Surface Anatomy of Thorasic Wall There are several landmarks and imaginary line to facilitate anatomical descriptions, identification of parts/ areas and to describe lesions and perform dissection. Some of the important landmarks relevant forensic pathologist/ expert are
Human Heart: Facts, Information’s, Anatomy and Functions INTRODUCTION: Today I will talk about the human heart which is one important organ of the human organism. More specific I will discuss what is the human heart and general information. Also I will talk about the facts, the anatomy ,the functions and the most important which is the heart diseases and the preventions of the human heart. WHAT IS THE HUMAN HEART: The human heart is the most important organ in our organism I believe these because
The cardiovascular system can be thought of as a huge pumping station for the blood we use in our bodies. The human heart weighs about 11oz. The heart can pump nearly 1.5 gallons of blood through the body per minute. This hollow organ is made up od four hollow chambers that fill up with blood and pump it though the body. These chambers are called the left and right atria and the left and right ventricles. The atria receive the blood from the major veins and the ventricles discharge the blood through
Megaesophagus is a rare condition that can develop in animals and rare cases humans. My concentration will be on dogs in general and touch on other animals. Megaesophagus, also known as esophageal dilatation, is where the esophagus becomes enlarger, not allowing food to enter the stomach correctly. The food can become trapped causing infections or regurgitated and inhaled into the lungs causing aspiration pneumonia. There is no cure at this time. Research is ongoing to determine the cause and
of running affect the heart rate? Introduction “This is an experiment to find out how the heart rate is affected by a change in the amount of running we perform.” Heart rate is an essential part of your body system. Human beings need to have a heart to pump blood and oxygen all over our body. This happens by contracting and retracting because cellular respiration requires oxygen. It is also called heartbeats or pulse. It is most frequently worked out as the number of heartbeats in one minute and
atom of the body. The path of these radiations is straight line in all possible directions from its origin. Both types of radiations are harmful to organisms and human being. Today in modern world, man has created a number of devices which serves as the source of radiations. From nuclear weapons to home use instruments we are surrounded by radiations. Even the cooking instrument microwave oven also produce radiations. All these have increased the risk of radiation exposure on human body and made it
Secondary pollutants are not emitted directly to the atmosphere but are formed when primary pollutants react in the atmosphere (Green Facts, 2004). Unlike the primary pollutants that are emitted directly to the atmosphere, secondary pollutants are a combination of gases with oxygen and sunlight. The secondary pollutants can be classified into different forms of pollutants. The examples includes: Ozone, acid rain, photochemical smog, nitrogen dioxide, sulphuric acid, these are discussed in the essay
The human brain is made up of 95% of water, our blood is 82% water and the water in our lungs is 90%. Our bodies can control over-heating through sweat from the sweat glands in the skin. Our bodies take in water from food and drinks. We even get some water when we respire by burning glucose to release energy. It is crucial that we drink approximately 7 glasses of water each day, so that the kidney can clear toxins and waste products effectively. Dehydration is a deficiency condition that occurs when
