The human body is made up many different systems like the respiratory system and the digestive system or the skeletal system. The skeletal system is the system that really allows us not to be a puddle of organs and skin on the floor and the skeleton protect they also shape, support and move our bodies. Yet the skeleton does not move by itself other elements move it and those elements are things like muscles and tendons those things are part of the musculoskeletal system muscles work in pairs these
The function of the skeletal system is to hold the body in an upright position, maintain its form, and provide movement. The muscular system provides the force and power needed to move the body. During an amputation, the surgeon must divide muscles in the remaining part of the limb, in order for a prosthetic limb to fit the residual
Neuromuscular junctions are important for joining skeletal muscle fibers and motor neurons together. These junctions link the muscle and nervous system to one another. A motor neuron is a nervous cell that controls the contraction or relaxation of muscles. Motor neurons are also referred to as efferent neurons. Efferent neurons carry information from the CNS to the muscle system and other systems. The neuron is composed of 3 different parts: the dendrites, soma (cell body) and the axon. The dendrite
1. INTRODUCTION : 1.1 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) : Frequency of the Neurodegenerative diseases keeps on increasing with increasing age. Neurodegenerative disease is a common term for various conditions because of chronic breakdown and deterioration of neurons(Houghton and Howes, 2005). Alzheimer’s disease is one of the prevalent neurodegenerative disease. Alzheimer’s disease was named after its discoverer Alois Alzheimer in 1906 who is a Bavarian neuropsychiatrist(1-1) Ageing is the main risk factor
repairs and combat diseases. Our body is subject to abuse by external elements and also by usage. There are various external agents, such as chemicals and harsh climate that damage our body cells. In addition, there can be various other reasons, such as smoking and over consumption of alcohol, that can add to the damage done to the body. Lifestyle and over usage may accelerate the frequency of damage to the body. Like our skin, which is the most delicate and exposed part of the human body. Apart from
glucose levels down by transporting glucose molecules into cells, and also serves as a medium in which proteins can be transferred into cells. Insulin also promotes cell growth, DNA synthesis and cell replication. [2] —PROBLEMS WITH INSULIN— Many humans face the problem of low insulin levels, where instead of transporting glucose into cells, the glucose is allowed to build up in the bloodstream, resulting in hypoglycemia or diabetes. This can cause symptoms such as double vision, fast heartbeat,
INTRODUCTION The major problem, the largest human calamity in the world is the health. Health is undeniably a basic requirement and an key factor of human life. Good health is known as a critical component of life, entrée to good health is renowned as a basic human need and a primary human right. A healthy population is more productive and efficient component of the society. Good health imitate lower morbidity levels as well as decreasing the burden of diseases in a population. Improved health status
important factors that assist in understanding crime scenes. Forensic anthropologists, as depicted by the Smithsonian Written in Bone exhibit, they use their knowledge to unlock clues that are hidden within the deceased. Forensic anthropologists allow the human body to guide them into the life of a person who may have lived a hundred years ago or even just yesterday. By digging up
The Belize Barrier Reef is included in the Mesoamerican Reef System, which stretches from the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula to Honduras and Guatemala. It is located in the Caribbean Sea in the Mesoamerican region in Central America. It has a latitude of 16° 50' 10.5" N and a longitude of 88° 1' 0" W. The Barrier reef is approximately 300 kilometres and consists of boundless geographic features including barrier reefs, fringing reefs, sand and mangrove cays, estuaries and lagoons. However, the focus of
diabetic patients is hypertension. (Epstein et al., 1992) Cardiovascular disease is most common type of diabetes complication of type II diabetes and represent 50-80% of the deaths among patients with diabetes. Therefore, prevention of this complication is an important goal for treatment of diabetes (Li, Y et al., 2014). Hypertension is a risk factor for coronary artery disease, heart failure (HF), stroke, and chronic kidney disease. (Lithovius et al., 2013) When hypertension is coexists with diabetes
