The Pathology of the Thyroid Gland Introduction The thyroid gland is the largest gland located in the neck. It is positioned in the anterior or front of the neck below the skin and muscle layers. The thyroid gland has the shape of a butterfly with the two wings being characterized by the left and right thyroid lobes which wrap around the trachea. The only role of the thyroid is to make thyroid hormone. This hormone has an effect on almost all tissues of the body where it augments cellular activity

Fantastic Voyage Unit 9 Project Anatomy and Physiology II Fantastic Voyage. Once again my mini-sub and I will be miniaturized (8 microns long) and witnessing another ‘Fantastic Voyage’ in a human body. This time I will be swallowed by George, a 55 years old man, while he is eating his meal consisting of a hamburger, French fries and a soda. I will pilot my mini-sub through George’s GI (gastrointestinal tract), which is the tube that starts with the mouth and proceeds to the esophagus, stomach

Case Study 1. What is meant by a "complete, comminuted, intertrochanteric fracture of the right hip"? A. Complete - refers to a fracture completely through the bone: B. Comminuted - refers to a fracture in which the broken bone has shattered into several smaller pieces: C. Intertrochanteric - refers to a fracture located between the greater trochanter and lesser trochanter of the femur: 2. Draw a picture of what you think Margaret's fracture looks like. 3. The radiologist reported signs of

fimbriae (fim′bre-e; “fringe”) that drape over the ovary. Unlike the male duct system, which is continuous with the tubules of the testes, the uterine tubes have little or no actual contact with the ovaries. An ovulated oocyte is cast into the peritoneal cavity, and many oocytes are lost there. However, the uterine tube performs complex movements to capture oocytes–it bends to drape over the ovary while the fimbriae stiffen and sweep the ovarian surface. The beating cilia on the fimbriae then create currents

4 Chapter 2 Background 2.1 Introduction Chapter 2 will describe the essential background information needed to understand this thesis project. A description of the biology of bone will be provided first and its focus will be limited to femurs and tibiae, since those are the structures we have used throughout this project. As well, we will briefly describe the analysis techniques that are currently used to evaluate bones. Furthermore the theory behind the used technique and instrumentation

Chapter 1 ELO’s Describe the basic functions of living organisms. A. Responsiveness – organisms respond to changes in their immediate environment (long term changes is adaptability) B. Growth – over a lifetime, organisms grow larger through an increase in size or number of cells. Differentiation is when cells have specialized functions C. Reproduction – Organisms reproduce, creating subsequent generations of similar organisms D. Movement – Organisms are capable of movement

The Origin, Etiology and Treatment of Syphilis “And this disease of which I speak, this syphilis too will pass away and die out, but later it will be born again and be seen again by our grandchildren just as in bygone ages we must believe it was observed by our ancestors.” – Fracastoro, 1538 1 It has been written about, debated over, and has affected every culture it has come into contact with. One can only be amazed when examining the microscopic syphilis bacterium. It traveled the seas of 1492
