The Lungs: A Fictional Narrative

Police officers are constantly being faced with the unknown dangers all around them. Police face the danger of getting shot in almost any situation. Policemen could get shot during a building search, or even at a simple traffic stop. For example in San Antonio, Texas, a dash cam video was released showing that an officer was making a routine traffic stop because a man in a truck ran a stop sign. When the truck pulled over, the driver hopped out of his truck and began shooting at the officer. The officer began to return fire and in doing so he shot and killed the driver. Reports state that the Officer stopped Michael Bradley because he didn 't come to a complete stop at a stop sign. As the Officer conducted the stop, Michael Bradley fired four shots from his vehicle. The President of the San Antonio Municipal Officers

It was a very tragic situation, an officer should always know who/what they are shooting at every time they pull the trigger. It is a hard story to read and the radio talk amongst the police is even worse. After the officers had fired their weapons, in the graphic footage from one of the officers body cams, you could hear the two officers talking. An officer can be heard in the footage

Diving is something that many consider as their hobby. This is given credit to Jacques Cousteau because he invented the Aqua-Lung. In the article “The Aqua-Lung—Bringing Ocean Exploration to New Depths” by Jess Therell, it informs readers about the invention of the Aqua-Lung and the development of the creation of this. The different inventions that are made before the Aqua-Lung was invented greatly impacted the creation of the Aqua-Lung. Some of these inventions were by Captain Yves Le Prieur and by Emile Gagnan. The contrasts between the Aqua-Lung and other inventions are that the Aqua-Lung controls with the air pressure unlike the other inventions and it can allow humans to remain underwater for a longer period of time.

Good morning everyone! Signing on, India Hornsby with ASAP Health. I will be reporting live inside Mrs. Frizzle. She has been under the weather for about two days now. A bacterium is invading the lower lobe of her right lung. It’s my job to pilot the invasion and do a live report on what I see. I will enter from the right femoral vein and follow a path to the lower lobe of the right lung via the right pulmonary artery. I will be describing the structures that I pass by and through. Once I have reached the lung, I will describe the structures that I see and discuss how the body fights against

The police officer turned to me and took a step towards me. He raised his baton and I thought about my kids and wife. This might be the last moment I have with them. I looked at the police officer one last time. Blood was running down my face and onto the ground.

Last month, a man named Alton Sterling was gunned down by police in front of a convenience store. The police were originally called to the scene because they were told Alton had a gun and was threatening someone. When the police arrive, a struggle ensues with Alton. They approach Alton and they wrestle him to the ground. One officer yells, “Gun!” and then you hear the gunshots rang out. Alton laid on the ground, lifeless. A gun was found on Alton, but Alton never pulled the gun on the officer.

Meanwhile Amy ,Nick,ron,and I Were standing in the jungle of our lawn . All of the Sudden we heard a thundering sound that was so loud it loud it shook the earth we were standing on . I was thinking that it might be the last day of my life .

“Damn. This. Stupid. Thing.” Freddy grumbled under his breath, wiping the beads of sweat that had begun accumulating on his brow. Frustrated, Fred interlocked his fingers behind his back, resulting in a loud CRACK from his spine. He sighed heavily as he dropped his hands to his side.

“Freeze! Put your hands in the air!” I yelled as a bullet whizzed past my ear and into my partner’s chest. “Niko! Are you ok?” I cried as I shot the shooter in the hand, making sure that he couldn't hurt me. As I call dispatch he tells me: “Ryan, tell the chief that I died bravely” “Ok.” I said with a tear falling from my eye. “You're under arrest! You have the right to remain silent, anything can and will be used against you in a court of law. If you can not afford a lawyer the city will provide one for you!” I said putting handcuffs on the man who shot my partner.

For a second, I actually thought she was going to come back, but what am I thinking! Why would she come back after what I had done to her, her family, and this nation? I have destroyed England and possibly all of Human. My lungs feel like they are going to burst from all the smoke attacking my lungs. I feel like I am going to faint, but not just from the smoke, but also from the fact that I do not have a right hand and I am bleeding to death.

Once we ran for a short amount of time we finally saw the rundown house in the distance. Once we got a little closer we saw a brown fence blocking our path. We walked around the fence until we found a small opening. It was just big enough for us to get through. Once we all got through the fence we could barely see the house, because the grass and weeds were so tall. We pushed our way through the weeds and grass and finally made it to the back of the house. We tried to look through the filthy windows, but they were boarded up. Before I opened the door, I asked everybody “Do we really want to do this?” Alexis being the brave one said “Just do it.” Jada is the scared one asked “Are we really going to do this?” And me being the curious one I wanted to see what was inside the house. Once we got in the house we felt a cold burst of air.

There are several factors that oppose and promote alveolar collapse, including the transmural pressure gradient, pulmonary surfactant, alveolar interdependence (all opposing factors), alveolar surface tension and the elasticity of stretched pulmonary connective tissue fibres (promoting factors). I will discuss these different aspects of lung physiology here.

The lungs are one of the most vital organ in the body. Without the lungs, the body will not be able to oxygenate the organs needed to sustain life. Oxygen is the primary driving force that living organisms need to oxidize food, produce adenosine triphosphate and metabolize energy. Despite the importance of this organ, millions of Americans acquire pneumonia which ultimately leads to injury and damage of this vital organ. Although, there are treatments for pneumonia, education is the most critical aspect we can teach our patients. Through education, we can enhance patient knowledge and promote self-care behaviors. According to Hinkle, “Influenza and pneumonia were the eighth leading cause of death in the United States in

“There’s no time for questions. We gotta go! Here, take this. We need to protect ourselves,” she quickly replied. Eva shoved a knife into my hand and then ran down the stairs. I got a glimpse of my parents, who were lying on their bed. The blood oozing from their bodies stained the cotton linens. The window was open with the moonlight illuminating the horrific scene. We were still in our sleeping garments as I followed her into the stillness of the day. The earth was not quite awake yet.
