Assignment Brief Course Title: Extended Diploma Level 3 in Health and Social Care Unit : 5 Assignment Title: Anatomy & Physiology Scenario/Vocational Context: This unit introduces core knowledge of cellular structure and function, and the organisation of the body as a whole, and then builds on this to develop a more detailed knowledge of the fine anatomy and physiology of the systems involved in energy metabolism. Functional Skills Development: This assignment will give you the opportunity

behaviour and interaction. Consequently, I have built my degree plan to represent both viewpoints in development. Physiology, the study of life and how cells and tissues in the body work together, works to answer how cells interact with each other and how this establishes the interactions between human populations. The following courses also focus on this thought. Biol 361: Physiology of Sensory, Nervous and Muscular Systems will introduce the various systems in the human body, including neurons and

credited with the discovery of how blood works inside the human body. This discovery and many of the discoveries during the Enlightenment are essential to today 's knowledge. William Harvey impacted his time period with contributions to anatomy and physiology, which laid the foundation for modern medicine. Harvey was born in Folkestone, England on April 1,1578 (William Harvey Biography, paragraph 1). He graduated in 1597 and decided to study medicine, travelled through France, Germany then to Padua

of the reasons I wanted to major in Exercise Science was because of my intentions to become a Physical Therapist. The course work of the Exercise Science programs entails a strong understanding of functional human anatomy, kinesiology, and human physiology, which are all relevant coursework for Physical Therapy school. One major benefit of this major is the senior internship that all students have to find in order to graduate with a B.S. Secondly, another major that interests me but is underrepresented

determined to absorb what I needed to for my artwork and ace the class at the same time. But as the class endured, I craved the information more and not just for the sole purpose of my artwork, but because it completely enthralled me. Human Anatomy and Physiology opened my eyes to detailed elements that compose the human body that I had never seen before in my life or in my art. Furthermore, I was able to articulate a connection between my hobby in art and my fascination with anatomy. The brachioradialis

Homeostasis The term I would like to introduce today is Homeostasis. This term is used in psychology and means having balanced body or life. A simpler definition to keep things constant, or in a balanced flow. This could be an organ in the body, your mind, or simply the area of your life. It is important for us to know what homeostasis is because, we all need balance in our lives. Psychology today says “Homeostasis is critical to survival. If our bodies do not maintain themselves within certain

The start of a great adventure, begins with the idea of becoming more then yourself. The first time I started thinking about what career I wanted was in third grade as a kid. Are teachers just simple asked us who do you want to be when you grow up? I was probing my mind for this answer, but couldn’t not found the answer. I said the basic thing every kid would say “ I would like to be a veterinarian.” I figured that would be good career because I loved animals and it doesn’t pay to bad. My mind kept

psychology, maths, chemistry and English. The subject that I’m most enjoying is biology. I have completed the unit animal physiology giving me a basic insight into how the human body functions. I am looking forward to completing the genetics unit this term. I believe this will provide a solid basis to my studies at university, especially when we study the anatomy and physiology of the body in more depth. Learning how our body works is something I find highly intriguing and will provide a solid basis

(129-217 AD) used animal experimentation to advance human understandings of anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology. -Ibn Zuhr (12th Century) tested surgical procedures on animals before applying them to human patients. Intro: Animal testing has always been a controversial topic. In the 17th century, it was argued that pain during vivisection (operations on live organisms) rendered results concerning animal physiology unreliable. Also, some believed that the benefit to humans did not justify the

Physiology of Epilepsy With a basic understanding of neurons and how the nervous system works, it should be known that the brain is a very delicate system; something seemingly minor can cause catastrophic complications. There are two key functions for the neurotransmitters of the brain, one is responsible for communication between cells the other is used to stop or slow it down. Sometimes this complex system becomes out of control and causes a “glitch” in the electrical system of the brain – resulting
