Urinary system

and Contrasting the Organ Systems By Tiffany Steele The Integumentary System is the largest organ system that will defend the body from things such as damage to the skin, hair, nails, and scales. The skin is the first line of protection against infection and temperature change. The variety of functions of the Integumentary System include waterproof, cushion and protect the deeper tissues, expel wastes, and control the body’s temperature. The Integumentary system has sensory receptors to identify

Also Identify the female parts and vice versa if you have a female 3. For the female identify the ovaries, oviduct, uterus, vagina, and cervix Nervous System 1. Remove the skin from the skull and back and cut open the bone to expose the central nervous system 2. For the brain identify: cerebrum, medial fissure, cerebellum, medulla oblongata, and corpus callosum 3. For the spinal chord, cut it open and identify gray and white matter. IV. Data and Observations

Introduction. In this essay we are discussing the Anatomy and Physiology of the following systems within the body of Dogs, Cats and Birds. All the systems described have an important role to play in maintaining Homeostasis which means the body is actively regulated to remain nearly constant in its functions. Cardiovascular System (Dogs and Cats). Anatomy. The Heart is a four-chambered muscular organ that pumps the blood around the body. The Heart lies in the Mediastinum, within the Thoracic Cavity

How is the tissue of the kidneys structurally modified to aid in filtration? 26. B. What is important functionally about transitional epithelium? 27. C. What is the function of the ureter

According to the authors, Bernstein & Lynn (2013), “A common and devastating condition, sepsis has significant healthcare implication worldwide.” The authors elaborate on the different types of sepsis and the complications that arise from them along with the pathophysiology and risk factors. Bernstein and Lynn emphasized the importance of a proper nursing assessments, recognition of septic progression and nursing interventions. An individual can get a septic infection from many sources, such as

body. A majority of organ systems in the body contribute to homeostasis, however there are two very important organ systems that play a massive role within this process, and they are the endocrine and nervous system. Both are crucial as they permit communication in the body and the integration of cells as well as tissue functions. The body’s internal environment is regulated by three components, they are known as the feedback systems of homeostasis. The feedback system is made up of the receptor

The endocrine system is made up of cells and glands that make hormones and release them into the blood. These hormones help to regulate reproduction, sleep, metabolism, cell growth, and development. The word endocrine is a derivative from two Greek words: “endo”, which means within or inside, and “krinis”, which is a verb for secrete. In the endocrine system, there are different glands that each excrete different hormones. All of these glands are ductless, and secrete their hormones straight into

can be especially catastrophic. The body systems, or specific categories that most processes in the body are attributed to, are what must be held to perfection. The major body systems each play a key role in helping to maintain the internal homeostasis of the body. To begin with, the four major body systems that deal with life systems, the respiratory, cardiovascular, and immune system, all play separate roles to maintain homeostasis. The respiratory systems function is to provide the body with oxygen

Once again we have been miniaturized in the submarine to continue the fantastic voyage of the digestive system. We will be touring a 55-year-old male. The host will be having a hamburger, French fries, and a root beer. We will be tracing lunch through the digestion process. Digestion is the process of turning the food that is ate into energy needed to survive and involves creating waste to be eliminated. (Mohan, 2010). The digestive tract is a long twisting tube that starts at the mouth and ends

the virus remains in the kidneys and other parts of the urinary tract but is inactive (latent). BK virus very rarely causes problems in healthy people. People may live with this inactive virus for years and never have any more symptoms. If you have a weak immune system, the BK virus may become active again. If this happens, the virus can cause inflammation in the urinary tract and damage the kidneys. What are the causes? A weakened immune system can reactivate the BK virus and cause an infection. This
