Order nowAbstract Smoking addiction is a chronic addiction mental disorder and it is closely related to changes in brain structure. There are few studies on structural connectivity of the thalamus-cortical circuit in adolescent smokers. Therefore, this study used magnetic resonance imaging techniques and the four ethological scales of Fagerstrom test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND), Pack-years, Cigarette […]
1. What are the values for Mary’s tidal volume (TV) and the alveolar ventilation rate (AVR)? (Remember to consider the dead space of 150ml). Normal alveolar ventilation is 4.0-5.0L. How does Mary’s AVR compare with normal volumes? a. Tidal volume= Minute Ventilation Rate divide by respiratory rate (MVR/RR) MVR= 6.1L/min=6100ml?min RR=30bpm TV= 6100/30=203ml b. Alveolar […]
The respiratory system is the bodies system that introduces gases into the body and releases waste gases through breathing. The main function is to transport air into the lungs, facilitate the diffusion of oxygen into the blood stream, and exhale carbon dioxide from the blood through exhaling. The respiratory system consists of all the organs […]
The respiratory system is a system that is responsible for a few things. The respiratory system is responsible for the swallowing, speech, and most importantly the breathing. The body must inhale the oxygen and exhale the carbon dioxide. The respiratory system has the responsibility of getting the oxygen to the blood. The oxygen must enter […]
The respiratory system is a group of organs and structures that helps us breathe. It is made up of the lungs, airways, muscles, and linked blood vessels. The airways are the pipes that both carry oxygen-rich air to the lungs and carry carbon dioxide out of the lungs. These include the nose and linked air […]
The human body is comprised of multiple separate systems that work together to maintain homeostasis, regular, stable internal conditions. The maintenance of internal function depends on a variety of variables: body temperature, fluid balance, concentration of sodium, potassium and calcium ions, and blood sugar levels. The respiratory system is responsible for the function of a […]
Introduction Homeostasis is where the body is maintained at steady conditions. The method remains vital, and the body needs the situation to work. It keeps adjusting based on all things considered and temperature of the body cells to work in the environment. In the inner environment, together temperature and liquid sum continue changing because of […]
This system consists of “the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and their smaller branches, and the lungs which contain the alveoli” IMarieb, 2015). The nose is superior to the mouth. The pharynx is posterior to the nasal and oral cavities. The larynx is inferior to the pharynx and connects the pharynx to the trachea. The […]
The human body has many amazing systems. One of the most interesting components of the body is the respiratory system. The respiratory system is made up of many functions, these many functions are performed in everyday life as we inhale and exhale air. The respiratory system runs off an autonomic system subdivides into 2 systems […]
