Plasma and red blood cells transport substances to or away from cell. White blood cells and platelets are parts of the immune system. Blood plasma is mostly made up of water which is from respiration and is absorbed from the large intestine. Water can also be reabsorbed from the kidney. This is very important as this allows osmosis occurs in our bodies.
The left and right side of the heart are separated by the posterior interventricular sulcus. The right side of your heart receives blood from the body and pumps it to the lungs. The left side of the heart does the exact opposite and receives blood from the lungs and pumps it out to the body. The Cardiovascular System works with the body’s Circulatory System and is responsible for distributing blood and nutrients throughout the body to maintain homeostasis. It then helps to pump blood around the body, to supply tissues with oxygen and nutrients and to transport waste products away from the tissues.
Therefore, platelets undergo degranulation the exocytosis of their cytoplasmic granules and release of factors that promote hemostasis. Aggregation is occurs when serotonin (vasoconstrictor), ADP (attracts more platelets and stimulates their degranulation), and thromboxane A2 (stimulates degranulation and vasoconstriction) are released. Thus it can quickly seal a small break in blood vessel. Coagulation is the last process of the hemostasis. It has three ways; intrinsic, extrinsic and common pathways.
In the exogenous path the Epithelial, cell lining also known as the small intestines, readily takes in lipids from the food. These lipids including phospholipids, cholesterol and triglycerides, merge with apolipoprotein B-48. In their circulation via the lymphatic vessels, the nascent chylomicrons pass the liver circulation and draining through the thoracic duct and into the bloodstream follows. In the bloodstream, High Density Lipid particles donate apolipoprotein E and apolipoprotein C-II to the nascent chylomicron that is now mature. Through apolipoprotein C-II, the mature chylomicrons activate lipoprotein lipase (LPL).
The cystic artery’s function is to supply passage of oxygenated blood to the gallbladder neck and the common bile duct. 16. What is the function of the portal vein? The portal vein carries blood that contains digested food from the small intestine to the liver. 17.
3/24/2014 Structure of the Kidney: Basic Diagram of the Kidney of the human body Renal hilus: The renal hilus is an indentation near to the centre of the concave area of the kidney. This is the area of the kidney through which the ureter leaves the kidney and the other structures including blood vessels (illustrated), lymphatic vessels, and nerves enter/leave the kidney. Renal capsule: The renal capsule is a smooth, transparent, fibrous membrane that surrounds, encloses, and protects the kidney. Each kidney has it's own renal capsule (outer layer), which helps to maintain the shape of the kidney as well as protecting it from damage. The renal capsule is itself surrounded by a mass of fatty tissue that also helps to protect the kidney by damage by cushioning it in cases of impact or sudden movement.
The Pituitary Gland The body contains a system for communicating, coordinating and controlling the bodies work. This is known as the endocrine system. The endocrine system works together with other systems and glands in the body to maintain and control body energy levels, reproductions, growth and development, homeostasis and responses to stress and injury. To maintain these functions, a network of glands and organs produce, store, and secrete certain hormones to complete different body functions. Hormones, which are chemical messengers, transfer information from one gland to another for important body functions.
Muscle tissue contract to produce active movement. Neural tissues conduct electrical impulses and carries information. The protected regions of our body for example our kidney tubes, the lining of the ventral body cavities and the lining of blood vessels are called simple squamous epithelium, they protect regions in which absorption takes place or where a slippery surface reduces friction. Stratified squamous epithelium protects when there are severe mechanical stresses the lining of the mouth and esophagus are prime examples of the epithelium. I believe that if the cutaneous membrane was damaged it would heal in time after all it is our skin and we know that in most people it heals with the help of red blood cells.
Samuel Lee Medical Terminology Secition 05 Susan Elizabeth RESEARCH PAPER ON THE URINARY SYSTEM The urinary system consists of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder and urethra. The paired kidneys are located retroperitoneally against the posterior body wall. They receive blood from the renal arteries, filter the blood and return it to the general circulation through the renal veins. Each kidney is surrounded by a tough fibrous capsule. Within the capsule, the kidney is divided into an outer cortex and an inner medulla.
When the cell become in contact with each other and a new adhesion molecules formed, the migration process stops. Furthermore, the keratinocytes release protein to rebuild the basement membrane. Re-epithelialization process is triggered by many wound associated signals include nitric oxide (NO) which produced by macrophages during early stages of wound healing [16], growth factors including epidermal growth factors (EGF) KGF, IGF-1, and nerve growth factor (NGF) that released from many cell kinds in the wounds. Angiogenesis is a process by which new blood vessel formation is established to supply the damaged area with oxygen and nutrient which are important during wound healing. Angiogenesis is started by by growth factors such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and the serine protease thrombin.
