Essay On Peristalsis

Dissections are performed on preserved animals donated specifically for science education in order to provide a hands-on experience to observe and study anatomy of an animal in three dimension, unlike a textbook, and how the organ systems are interconnected. In this particular dissection a fetal pig was used because the organs present in a pig, and their position in the body are similar to those of humans which provides insight on how human organs systems work overall and why they are essential to life.

Meat sources are a staple of the bearded dragon diet, these include crickets, waxworms, and mealworms. ‘Gutloading’ prior to feeding the dragon is important. Insects should be fed to the dragon at least every other day. A rule of thumb is that the insect shouldn’t be any bigger than the space between their eyes. This is important as the digestive tract has a lot of ‘sharp turns’ and twist that the food could get stuck in.

Feeding occurs in the Veiled Chameleon using a tongue shooting mechanism. Structured on the hyoid bone, the tongue is made

INTRODUCTION: In this essay I will consider how I would use a nursing concept, respect whilst undertaking elimination needs. I will give clear definition of the concept (respect) and a nursing skill of my choice which is elimination needs. I will also, identify how the concept and skill is relevant in nursing.

Therefore, when either system fail, normal elimination does not take place.

24. Acid chyme produced by stomach is neutralized In the intestine by which of the following?

P4 Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body

Gastric bypass surgery makes your stomach smaller. This causes you to feel full with less food so you consume fewer calories. The procedure also bypasses part of your small intestine, so fewer calories are actually absorbed into your system. Fewer calories will ultimately lead to weight loss.

The food then travels into the oesophagus. Your oesophagus is located near your trachea (windpipe). The epiglottis separates the nasal cavity and the lower airway from the passage of food whilst swallowing. The contractions of the muscles in your oesophagus push the food down your oesophagus and into your stomach. Your stomach is a hollow organ that holds food whilst it is being broken down by the enzymes. There is also strong acid released by the glands in the lining of the stomach which helps break down food into a more useable form and also aids in the destruction of most ingested bacteria. After the contents have successfully been broken down they are released into the small intestine. The small intestine is a 22 foot long tube that helps to break down the food with enzymes released from the pancreas and bile released form the liver. In this organ the process of Peristalsis is at work, pushing the food further and further through the small intestine towards the colon. These movements are stimulated by the presence of chyme. The small intestine begins with the duodenum which has the large responsibility of continuing to break down the food. The jejunum and ileum are

This article was about Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. This is relevant to our course because in order to treat diseases like this we need to know how the body works in order to create treatment plans such as the ones in this article. I know of a few different people who suffer from inflammatory bowel disease. It really is not as uncommon as I thought. Reading this article kept me interested since I know people who have it. This made it easier to learn about because I would think about my family members and how they each have to deal with this disease. I wanted to learn more information so I could better understand what is going on with my family members who have Crohn’s disease. Since I was the only student who participated in the group discussion, I would have liked it better if I could have heard other students’ tell their personal relationship with someone who has inflammatory bowel disease. Also, I learn better if a student explains a complicated concept to me rather than a textbook or teacher. Sometimes if a classmate says something, then that helps me to

The human body is an amazing thing made up of many different parts. These parts are cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems. For starters, one type of cell makes up one type of tissue. Next, two or more types of tissues make an organ. Then, a few organs working together make an organ system. Each of the organ systems in your body have a certain function, or job. Working together, all of these organ systems make up an organism. In other words, cells make up tissues, tissues make up organs, organs make up organ systems, and organ systems make an organism.
