1. Using the correct terminology, describe the normal structure, function and location and interrelationships of each of the major body systems. Also evaluate how the relationships between different body systems affect and support healthy functioning. This should include:
a) Body regulation including:
1. Maintenance of body temperature
2. Fluid and electrolyte (including PH) balance
3. Elimination of wastes from the body
4. Maintenance of blood pressure
b) Protection from infection
c) Physical activity – active and passive
After a 30 min Weight Lifting Session (Muscle, Cardiovascular)
1) Identify the specific disturbance(s). What is being moved away from set point or resting values?
2) How is (are) the changes detected? What are the physiological sensors?
3) How will body regulate the changes to return to normal?
4) Are there specific interactions between the 2 systems that help detection or help regulate the changes back to rest?

- . Discuss the effects of aging on various body systems.arrow_forwardHi, May I get help with this question for physiology? An explanation leading to the correct answer would be helpful! Scenario: You're taking a train from Istanbul to Zagreb, and there has been a murder! Fortunately, a world-class detective is on the train with you and the train's owner ask him take over the case. You are not a suspect, but you are an expert in human physiology. You examine the body for "rigor mortis" to estimate the time of death. Rigor mortis occurs because, at death, all the existing ATP is rapidly depleted and no new ATP is made. The lack of ATP prevents the cross-bridge cycle, and the muscles become extremely stiff. You explain all of this to the detective, Hercule P, but he's confused why the lack of ATP would make the body stiff rather than limp. After all, isn't the primary function of sarcomeres to build tension in muscles? You tell Hercule that the lack of ATP actually prevents:arrow_forwardPlease select a body system within the surgery section. Choose two (2) guidelines from this section/body system.

Angus is an 18-year-old young adult, who Is riding his skateboard in a city park. He is not wearing protective gear, including a helmet. When a friend distracts his attention, he runs head-on into a planter and is thrown over the planter b0x onto the concrete, landing on his left side. He immediately experiences pain in his left side, left wrist, and abdomen. His left wrist is angulated and obviously broken. A head-to-toe assessment demonstrates small, superficial scrapes on the patient's forehead and left cheek. His facial structures appear to be intact. Neurologically, he is normal, with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 14. He has no complaints of shortness of breath, and his chest wall shows no obvious external injury. An x ray of his left wrist shows a comminuted fracture of his left radius and ulna. Angus is taken to the operating room for orthopaedic repair of his left wrist. After surgery, he is admitted to the orthopaedic floor with orders for pain medication as…arrow_forward

- Legrning Tosk 7: Read and answer the given questions after the lesson. Homeostasis is the state reached when each part of the body functions in equilibrium with other parts. This is attained through the regulation of the bodily functions by the endocrine and nervous systems. Most body system maintain homeostasis by using feedback mechanisms. When the brain receives messages from the body about an internal change in ane of its systems, it works to restore the system to its normal state. The levels of hormones in the body are controlled by feedback. It is important that the amount of homeostasis in our body is kept at the right level. To achieve homeostasis, the nervous and endocrine systems maintain a normal range of the following variables: body temperature, amount of water in the body, amounts of metabollc wastes in the cell, blood calcium level, and hormones in the blood.
