environment. The skin is a functional barrier with unique anatomic and physiologic features. The following essay will provides an overview of the key elements of the skin’s structure and functions to provide an in-depth understanding on the skins biology and how to apply this knowledge to the beauty industry. Knowledge of skin structure and promotion of skin health Function and role of the skin 1.1 Explain the Integumentary system The integumentary system covers the whole body and is made up of
Dissection Introduction The objective for this experiment is to study and provide a detailed overview of the physiology of the fish, Oreochromis Mossambicus. This experiment identifies and studies the unique physiological characteristics and adaptations that allow fish to survive and thrive in an aquatic environment. Besides that, this experiment is used to study anatomy. Anatomy is the study of the structure and function of the body. A dissection is the best way to learn about the parts of the body and the
abnormal temperature regulation, pineal abnormalities, carotid body irregularities, lead poisoning, elevated fetal hemoglobin, brainstem immaturity, and cerebral hypoperfusion. The following is an overview of these pathologies in their relation to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. As with most physiological processes, several intermediate steps can lead to a certain event, thus making the mechanism more controlled. However, as more steps that are required, there arises a greater number of possible problems
relation to water balance and possible treatments D2: Analyse the impact on the human body of dysfunctions in relation to water balance For P4, I’m going to outline the physiological overview of the kidneys and then I am going to explain the renal system. Also I am going to explain the kidneys in more detail. The physiological overview involves the kidneys processing blood by eliminating any excess mineral salts, urea and water as this provides homeostasis and it enables the body to work effectively

self and non-self. The pattern recognition receptors function to identify the molecule elements on microbes, which are acknowledged as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). The elements of microbes that are required for the survival of the microbe hence they are not easy to change (Akira, Uematsu and Takeuchi, 2006) . The PRRs are also expressed in the intracellular compartments and can be released into the bloodstream. The functions of pattern recognition receptors comprise opsonisation
Introduction 1. Normal mammary gland 1.1 normal mammary gland anatomies The normal breast sits on the chest muscle, consisting mainly of adipose tissue, also known as mammary fat pad. The mature mammary gland is composed of 15-20 lobes, which are each composed of smaller structure called lobules. Tiny Lactiferous ducts connect lobules to each other. (Fig. 1b) (Schneider and Bocker). A typical structure of duct is composed of a hollow lumen, enclosed by a layer of epithelial luminal cells that produce

pre-receptor control enzymes that modulate activation of the glucocorticoid receptor and the mineralocorticoid receptor via regulation of glucocorticoid hormones.15–17 Glucocorticoids (e.g., cortisol) are steroid hormones that regulate fat metabolism, function, and distribution, as well as carbohydrate and protein metabolism. Therefore, inhibition of 11β-HSD1 may prove useful in treating multiple glucocorticoid-related disorders and/or aspects of the metabolic syndrome. Examples include combatting
