“Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!” - Audrey Hepburn (Audrey Hepburn Quote). Audrey Hepburn was a British actress, but she was highly loved and cherished in America, too. Even though Audrey wasn’t an American citizen, today people still mourn her young death at only 63. Audrey was born in Brussels, Belgium during the April of 1929, and died in Tolochenaz, Switzerland in 1993. When Hepburn was the young age of eleven, she was in the German Occupation of Holland and those
thin, round metal disk called a diaphragm. When a person talks into the telephone, the sound waves strike the diaphragm and makes it vibrate. Behind the diaphragm lies a small cup filled with tiny grains of carbon. The diaphragm presses against these carbon grains. Low service electric current travels through the grains. This current, comes from batteries at the telephone company. A loud sound causes the sound waves to push hard on the diaphragm. In turn, the diaphragm presses the grains tightly together
During the stretching of the diaphragm upwards, the gap between the diaphragm and the abdominal organs is decreased laterally and the contact surface between the inferior diaphragmatic lateral face and the abdominal organs is increased. This situation increases the risk of inadvertent abdominal injuries
laparotomy and the diaphragmatic defect was repaired primarily. Conclusion: Spontaneous acquired diaphragmatic hernia due to lax and thinned out diaphragm is very rare condition and very difficult to diagnose unless a very high index of suspicion is kept in mind. Surgical repair is the definitive treatment. Keywords: Spontaneous Diaphragmatic Hernia; Lax Diaphragm Introduction
component that has two plates with voltage between them) built-in to convert sound waves into electrical energy. Inside a condenser microphone, you’ll find components such as the Diaphragm (or the front plate), the back plate, a built-in battery. When a sound wave strikes the diaphragm, it causes a vibration within the diaphragm which then causes a change in capacitance within the capacitor, which also changes the voltage. In order to get the capacitor working, a voltage has to be sent through it, this
along the right side of the descending thoracic aorta. Below, as it inclines left, it crosses anterior to the aorta and enters the abdomen through the diaphragm at the level of the tenth thoracic vertebra. From above downwards, the trachea, right pulmonary artery, left main bronchus, pericardium (separating it from the left atrium) and the diaphragm are anterior. The vertebral column, longus colli, right posterior intercostal arteries, thoracic duct, azygos vein and the terminal parts of the hemiazygos
assistance of the pleural membrane, where pleural membrane impresses the lungs when they are at rest, as a result the air will flow into the lunges in order to rise up the lunges pressure until it matches the atmosphere pressure, at this point the diaphragm will contract and more air can be inhaled, meanwhile the contraction of external intercostal muscle will cause an increment in the thorax volume, so as a feedback the lungs pressure will go lower than the atmosphere pressure
Intro: Speakers, the magical electronics that let you enjoy your favorite music. Such as “It’s Raining Men”. Without speakers, you won’t be able to enjoy your video games, your music, or talk to your friends through the web. How do these magical equipments actually work? It might surprise you how simple the mechanics of a speaker is. Curious yet? I will teach you about these 2 main topics, how sound works, and how speakers work. Speakers create sound waves, but what is sound? Inside the ear, there
movement of the diaphragm to lengthen and shorten the chest cavity and (2) by elevation and depression of the ribs to increase and decrease the back to front diameter of the chest cavity (figure given below) Normal quiet breathing is accomplished almost entirely by movement of the diaphragm . During inspiration, contraction of the diaphragm creates a negative pressure (vacuum) in the chest cavity and air is drawn into the lungs. During expiration diaphragm simply
quality of products, mercury technology is one of the most expensive technologies when it comes to electricity consumption, which makes it very unsustainable. While Diaphragm Cell Technology has been around for a while it is still one of the most common methods of chlorine production in the United States. Similar to Mercury Technology, Diaphragm Cell Technology does not require purification of the brine. It solely required the brine to be
of breathing takes place in this part of the system). The organs of the lower respiratory tract are located in the chest cavity. They are laid out and protected by the ribcage, the chest bone (sternum), and the muscles between the ribs and the diaphragm (that constitute a muscular partition between the chest and the abdominal cavity). The nostrils form the main exterior opening for the respiratory system and are the first section of the body’s airway. Nostrils are involved in the intake of air
causes the gaseous exchange to occur rapidly. Oxygen gets to the blood as it passes from the alveoli into the blood. While carbon dioxide passes from the blood and goes into the alveoli. Diaphragm - splits the chest from the abdomen and the contraction of the diaphragm expands the volume of the chest cavity. The diaphragm is considered to be the most important muscle that is implicated in breathing as during respiration, it pulls air into the lungs. Intercostal Muscles (Internal and External) - lie between
Introduction In the past, it has been vital to distinguish the identities of microorganisms in the world. Knowing their identity has aided in diagnosing numerous diseases and has discovered the most beneficial treatment. Lately, it has been vital to differentiate the identities of microorganisms worldwide. Recognizing their identity has aided in diagnosis numerous diseases and has discovered the most beneficial treatment. To study in microbiology, it is crucial for us to use microscope for microorganism
Furthermore, the regulation of the respiratory center can be modified in response to inputs from other brain regions, receptors in the peripheral nervous system, and other factors (chemoreceptors, voluntary control, etc.) in order to preserve the homeostasis of breathing. The respiratory center comprises of dispersed clusters of neurons located near the brain stem that modify the breathing muscles of the thorax by transmitting nerve impulses from centers in the brain which signals either contraction
with the pathogens moving up the ureters to the kidneys. Anything that reduces bladder emptying or irritates the urinary tract can cause UTIs. Many factors can put someone at risk. Gender, sexual activity, bathroom hygiene, Spermicides, Condoms, Diaphragms, Diabetes, Loss of Estrogen and Prolonged Use of Bladder Catheters are the risk factors that can cause UTI. Women tend to get urinary tract infections more often than men because bacteria can reach the bladder more easily in women. The urethra is
and medulla oblongata play a key role in breathing. The medulla helps set the respiratory rhythm by receiving and sending impulses to a bundle of neurons called the ventral respiratory group to the phrenic nerve to bring about contraction in the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles. All this only happens though due to the sensors of the chemoreceptors. The chemoreceptors located in the medulla and carotid and aortic bodies detect a rise in carbon dioxide (CO2). There are many effectors when
“P1V1 = P2V2” shows that as the volume increases, the pressure of the gas decreases in proportion, as long as the temperature stays the same. The relationship between pressure and volume was first noticed by mathematician and astronomer Richard Towneley and experimenter Henry Power. Robert Boyle, a chemist and physicist, confirmed the discovery and published the results in 1662. According to science historians, Boyle’s assistant, Robert Hooke, built the experimental rig. The law is based on air
The Respiratory and Cardiovascular systems work together in order to complete specific roles in the body. The Respiratory System is composed of specific organs responsible for inhaling oxygen and gas exchange throughout the lungs and body tissues. The Cardiovascular System is a circulatory system that is powered by the hardest working organ in the body ,the heart, it is responsible for moving nutrients, oxygen, cellular waste products ,and hormones. “Oxygen is required for cellular functions”, (Lysis
are three types of microphones used in audio production– dynamic, ribbon, and condenser. The dynamic microphone features a thick Mylar diaphragm with a voice coil wrapped around it. These parts are enabled through electromagnetic induction. As the sound wave reaches the diaphragm, the pressure moves the voice
Relations with the diaphragm and heart liver supplement neighboring organs. The base of the liver opens into the hepatic hilum, which is but the entrance area of the omentum (omentum) lower with the portal vein, hepatic artery and hepatic duct outlet. The omentum (omentum) lower
