Thorax

The nurse should look at the thorax for the rise and fall with respirations, noting the rate, depth, and pattern (Ignatavicius & Workman, 2013). The nurse should assess the patient’s chest expansion by places their thumbs together on the patient’s back at about the ninth rib. The patient

Ants are usually thin and skinny insects. They all have 3 pairs of legs and their bodies are divided into three main part: head, abdomen and thorax. They are narrowly connected to their abdomen and thorax. Their antennae are bent in the middle and have chewing mouthparts. The mouth is an essential working tool for almost every ant. It consists of two sets of jaws: the outer two, used for carrying food and building the nest and the inner one is used for chewing. Adult ants are able to swallow

Sarah Awolesi - 159804 M2 - Explain the need for a transport system in a multi-cellular organism The Heart The heart is a hollow muscle organ that pumps blood through the circulatory system by contractions and dilation. There may be four chambers in humans with two atria and two ventricles. The heart is responsible for providing the body with blood that has been resupplied with oxygen so that the body can continue to function which is a continuous process. On the right side of the heart, the

1. Explain the process of natural selection. Natural selection involves the adaptation of a species to better survive in their designated environment. When organisms reproduce, they pass down their DNA to their offspring. For example, a child that is tall is the result of their parent being tall as well. Parents pass down traits to their children. When it comes to survival, some organisms are better at it than others based on the traits that they have acquired. Some organisms can camouflage from

damp places is because they have gills that must be kept moist. The gills are located on the thorax, which is covered by large exoskeleton plates. The thorax is also where the pillbug’s seven pairs of legs are located. The pillbug also has the nickname “roly-poly,” this is because the pillbug has a defensive mechanism where it rolls into a tight ball, using the large exoskeleton plates of its thorax to protect its head and underside. Purpose:

Blue Dashers are very popular and beautiful dragonflies. Their abdomens are blue with a dark spot at the end. They may have patches of yellow or green on their thorax. Adult Blue Dashers have 4 wings with 2 dark stripes. They grow to between 1.02 and 1.77 inches long. They have very large metallic looking eyes. Slow moving water is a common spot to find Blue Dashers. Usually they are found in North America. Males can be found along the edge of the water defending their territory from other males

The drosophila melanogaster is the model animal of choice due to the fact that they have a short reproduction time. They are sexually active after only two days of emerging from their casing. They then mate and can lay up to hundreds of eggs which take about a week to hatch. This makes them easy test subjects that way different generations can easily be studied. They are inexpensive and require a simple diet of carbohydrates and proteins. They are about 3mm in size, therefore they can easily

2.2.2 Bright-Blood Sequences Gradient echo sequences are typically bright-blood sequences. They have fast acquisition time and hence can be used to obtain physiological information such as myocardial function, velocity and blood flow measurements. They are sensitive to metal artifacts and inhomogeneities in the magnetic field. [3] [5] Steady State Free Precession (SSFP) is a variation of gradient echo/bright-blood imaging where the RF pulses are repeated every TR (repetition time) with no spoiler

The class Insecta is comprised of six legged organisms which are divided into three sections, the head, thorax and abdomen. The head of most insects contains a set of antennas used for sensing and a mandible used for crushing or cutting food. The second section of the insect or the thorax of the insect contains all of the six legs and can contain the wings of some insects, it is a key part of the insect’s movements. Insects are the only the only known arthropods which can possibly have wings. The
