Thorax

Unit 1 principles of anatomy and physiology Describe the structure and function of the skeletal system: The skeletal system consists of the axial skeleton, the appendicular skeleton and many different bones. The axial skeleton is part of the skeleton, it consists of eighty bones; twenty eight in the skull and fifty two in the torso. These bones can be found in the skull bones, the ossicles in the inner ear, the hyoid bone, the rib cage, sternum and the vertebral column. The picture on the right shows

Honeybees are considered a keystone species because of the extremely important role they play in supporting and pollinating a large variety of ecosystems. Human beings are also reliant on the services that honeybees provide, and often use them in commercial greenhouses and orchards to ensure proper pollination. Although much research has been done to try and discover the cause of the dying bees, no single factor has been determined. However, if the problem remains unsolved, it could lead to disastrous

Florida, 65-year-old Mary Ann Stephens is shot in the head in front her husband's eyes. Ninety minutes later, 15-year-old Brenton Butler is arrested who is formally identified by the only eye-witness, Mr Stephens. Butler was beaten on the face and thorax by the detective Glover, then he was forced to sign a confession that detective Darnell wrote, it seems that Butler did not say anything. With those two evidence and for misleading

platelets for blood clotting and regulate body temperature, pH fluid, and water content of cells. It’s a closed system, and the main organs associated with the cardiovascular system is the heart and the blood vessels. The heart is located in the thorax, between the lungs, and is about the size of your fist. It’s only function is to pump blood. The right side of the heart pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs, where gas exchange occurs, and the left side of the heart

which Mantegna uses to portray Christ body. The painting appears with Christ body in the center lying on a marble slab with Virgin Mary and St.John by his side. From the viewer’s angle, one can see the anatomical details in Christ body especially his thorax. It is because Mantegna uses “foreshortens and dramatizes the recumbent [of Christ] figure” (). However, Christ’s feet are smaller in the size so that they cannot interfere the view of Christ body. If Mantegna draws Christ’s feet in proper size, it

like flat disks. Their bodies are divided into three parts – head, thorax, and abdomen. The head is typically dome-shaped with five pairs of appendages. Among these five are two pairs of antennae; there is a small pair and a larger pair. The smaller pair of antennae serves as a sensory function and the larger one is used for swimming. The other three appendages’ purpose is to secure food they intake. (Michael Hutchins, 2003) The thorax holds four to six pairs of legs that are used for gathering food

Have you ever seen a bee acting weird? They act weird because of parasites.The authors propose of writing this article is to inform the readers about ants turning “zombie-like” before they die and how they get infected. In the article, it states “Dr. hafernik first discovered something eerie was happening to the bees on his campus in 2008 when he stumbled upon several of them staggering in circles along the sidewalk. For weeks he picked up a few of them in a glass vial with plants to feed his pet

across its body and becomes covered in short bristles called setae. It is at this stage where the tentacles start to form. One pair grows from the abdomen and another from the thorax, or the middle section of the body. The larva gets bigger and the bands become more pronounced and the tentacles more elongated. Legs on the thorax change into a smaller pair closer toward the head and the pair at the abdomen grow larger. The caterpillar starts eating the edges of the leaves from where they were hatched

The killer shrimp is a combination of shrimp and a pray mantis. They are dangerous and have incredible abilities, having an incredible strength compared to their size. They got powerful appendages that can be used for hunting or for self protection. The mantis shrimp is a territorial animal, and the individuals of that specie usually fight for shelters. Their appendages work like hammers, what provides a strong impact force. They have different predators, and sharks can be one of them. Their body

Mechanical ventilation is the treatment for patients who show the sign of acute respiratory failure. Patients would get acute respiratory distress from inadequate oxygenation or ventilation that associated with hypoxemia without or with hypercapnia. Mechanical ventilation is used for these patients based on when the patients’ partial pressure of oxygen in arterial (PaO2) is less than 50 mm Hg and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) greater than 50 mm Hg.1 Under normal condition, when patients
