Other conditions that cause anemia are HIV/AIDS, cancer, kidney disease, and sickle cell anemia. Primary polycythemia is caused by unregulated erythrocyte production. Polycythemia may occur because of hypoxia. When this occurs the body senses low oxygen levels and produces more erythrocytes to carry more oxygen to the body
Pressure overload usually results from an obstructive lesion, such as COA c. Decrease contractility can result from problems such as sever anemia, asphyxia, heart block and acidemia. d. High cardiac output demands occur when the body’s need for oxygen exceeds the heart’s output
Carbon Dioxide: May be an indication that the SBO is affecting the diaphragm and CO2 exchange within the lungs. (Complication of upper SBO.) }. BUN: Kidneys are no longer processing your waste, indicating that the SBO may have moved or caused obstructions in other areas. It could also be an indication the patient is not getting adequate fluids and may be dehydrated.
The discoloration is measured in percent transmittance of light over 30minutes at 5 minute intervals. The change in dye color is the associated with cellular respiration activity, and will be used to record the cellular respiration rate in mitochondria isolated from pulverized lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus) and subsequent effects of different substrate concentration, pH, and metabolic inhibitors . If the difference of light percent transmission produced by (DPIP) can be recorded over time associated with the cellular respiration rate then the rate of cellular respiration of mitochondrion in varying substrate concentrations, pH , and metabolic inhibitor solutions can be tested. The results from these experiments can be generalized and applied to other organisms with similar reactions to such substances. Materials and Methods The procedures employed in this laboratory are described in Cell Physiology and Metabolism Lab
Find the mass of the 5 dry pennies, then record the data. 2. Add 5 more pennies to the first group for the mass of 10 pennies, record mass. 3. Repeat step two, then continue adding 5 dry pennies each step to balance until you have used all 30 pennies 4.

Blood spun in a centrifuge is composed of ____45_______ percent RBC and ___55______ percent plasma. 4. 5. Blood chemistry includes __acidity___ (acid-base balance), _glucose_ (sugar), _lipids_ (fats), _fibrinogen _ (protein) and enzymes. 7.
Alcohol is very high in calories and if you do not do regular exercise you can gain weight very quickly. This can then strain your body especially the cardiovascular and respiratory system. Alcohol interferes with the brains communication pathways, also affecting the way the brain looks and works. This can disrupt
Stress also increases the heart rate and can lead to the increase of blood pressure, thus Hypertension and can lead to Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). Although this disease can be caused by the indirect effects. Indirect effects of stress are associated with the bad habits that stress causes us to take part in, these included smoking, poor diet and alcohol abuse. These poor habits can thus lead to ill-effects on one’s health. These issues are more related to chronic stress rather than acute stress and it occurs for a long period, thus affecting health for a longer period.
In addition, having this type of anemia causes the red blood cells (RBCs) to become hard and pointed. Since hemoglobin (found inside RBCs) normally carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues, anemia leads to hypoxia (lack of oxygen) in organs. As a result, the RBCs function abnormally causing small blood clots, and can get stuck in the blood vessels. When this occurs, circulation in the blood
