Endocrine System Question 1: How does the insulin and glucagon secreted by the pancreas function in glucose metabolism? Answer 1: “Insulin and glucagon work together to keep glucose levels in the blood within the normal range. When there is an elevated blood glucose level, this stimulates beta cells in the pancreas to secrete insulin. The insulin facilitates the uptake of glucose by body cells, and the liver will uptake the glucose and store it as glycogen. These actions return blood glucose levels back to normal. When there is decreased blood glucose, this stimulates the alpha cells in the pancreas to produce glucagon. The glucagon travels to the liver and facilitates the conversion of glycogen to glucose. This glucose is released in the bloodstream to return levels back to normal.” (M.U.S.E.) 2. Cardiovascular System Blood flows through the body in two distinct pathways: the pulmonary pathway...

...The Mammalian Circulatory and Gas Exchange Systems Radwa Abdallah Professor Yan Xu Fundamentals of Biology II Lab February 20, 2014 Objectives The objectives of the Circulatory System laboratory experiment included observing and learning to identify the structural characteristics, mostly arteries and veins, in the chest cavity of the fetal pig, which would further the understanding of the heart and lungs in most other mammals; another objective was to understand blood pressure and heart rate and the factors that affect it. The objectives of the Gas Exchange laboratory experiment was to observe the respiratory system in the fetal pigs, thus gaining an understanding of the respiratory system in most other mammals; another objective from the portion of the experiment that included measuring the respiratory volumes of humans and understanding the capacity of the human lung. Introduction There are two kinds of circulatory systems, an opened circulatory system and a closed circulatory system. The circulatory system is made up of an internal body fluid that is either hemolymph or blood, a pump system, and a vascular system that is made up of tubular vessels that move fluid from one location to another quickly(Dolphin 377). Hemolymph is the fluid found in the open circulatory system and blood is the fluid found in closed systems. In open circulatory systems the fluid leaves the heart through the arteries and returns through open sinuses rather than veins (379)...

...endocrine respiratory, circulatory, immune, digestive, excretory, skeletal, muscular, and the reproductive systems. They all work together in harmony and unison to keep us alive. The nervous and endocrine systems are what control most of the body. The nervous system includes the brain, spinal, cord and nerves. The endocrine system consists of various hormonal glands such as the pituitary. These two systems interact closely since they both have a part in controlling the body. They work together to aid the body in performing its numerous functions and giving it commands. The respiratory and endocrine system works with all the system by controlling their actions and how they perform their tasks. It moves the muscles of the muscular system and controls all motor movements. The endocrine builds up the bones of the skeletal system and produces the hormones that make the reproductive system mature. The nervous system helps the circulatory system by controlling the amount of glucose in blood and blood pressure. It also regulates breathing for the respiratory system. The digestive system is also aided by the sensory nerves in the mouth which help it decide if food should be released back upward. The nervous and endocrine systems are the "control centers" of the body. The respiratory system is also interacts with other organs. It is made up of the lungs, nose, trachea, and mouth. This system supplies the body with a steady flow of oxygen. The respiratory system...

...cardiovascular system is also known as the circulatory system Roberts, (2010). The whole meaning cardiovascular system can be explained as a system consisting of the heart, blood vessels, arteries and veins which carry blood around the body and takes oxygen and nutrients to the body tissues and removes wastes products from the tissue cells Roberts, (2010) that make up the body’s other ten systems. These consist of Integumentary (skin, nails and hair), skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine (hormones), lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary and reproductive The cardiovascular system depends on all the systems above functionally normally as it is the body's key transport system Peters, (2004) The Respiratory system consists of the upper and lower respiratory tracts and thoracic cage, it also consists of the nose, the pharynx, trachea and our lungs Peters, (2004) where in addition to the maintaining exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs and tissues, the respiratory system helps regulate the body’s acid base balance Peters, (2004). Every cell in the body needs oxygen to help release energy into the body Sang, (2005) and needs to get rid of waste product such as carbon dioxide to function; the respiratory System allows this to happen by breathing air into the lungs allowing the cardiovascular System to transport the oxygen and carbon dioxide between the cells and lungs Sang, (2005). The heart and the circulatory system (arteries and veins) make up the cardiovascular...

...system and the musculoskeletal system and between the circulatory system and the lymphatic system. It will then explain the roles of the circulatory and lymphatic systems in the immune response and the role of hormones in metabolism. Human Body Systems The human body is made up of 11 separate but interconnected systems (Sherwood, 2007). These are the skeletal, muscular, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, excretory, nervous, integumentary, immune, endocrine and reproductive systems. The success and survival of the human body is dependent on the ability of separate body systems to work together. The skeletal system provides structure for the human body, stores minerals, produces blood cells and provides protection for delicate organs (Kelly, 2004). 206 bones are connected with ligaments, muscles and tendons, with cartilage, a softer cushion like material, providing protection in jointed areas. Body movements are controlled by the muscular system, with these muscles being connected to bones via tendons (Adams, 2004). Stimulation of these muscles by the nervous system causes contraction and the resulting movement of bones to which they are attached. A number of involuntary muscles ensure the respiratory and circulatory systems continue with contraction of the heart and lungs (Adams, 2004). The heart is central to the circulatory system and acts as to pump blood through arteries, veins and capillaries. The circulatory system is responsible for delivering nutrients and oxygen...

Intro The cardio-respiratory system is made up of the combination of both the Cardiovascular System (Circulatory) and Respiratory System. This combination includes the heart, blood, blood vessels and the lungs. These work together to transport blood and other nutrients through the body and perform gaseous exchange between oxygen, carbon dioxide and other by-products, as well as removing heat from the body. These two systems work with every other system of the body to keep the body stable and functioning, performing different functions with each. Cardiovascular System The cardiovascular system is made up of the heart, blood and blood vessels, and is in control of transporting oxygen and the other nutrients carried throughout the body where it is needed.

...UNIT 05 LO2- P4 Explain the physiology of two names body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body. Our body requires energy so the body functions. This energy mainly comes from carbohydrates and fats that we take as food. Carbohydrates are decayed into glucose, glucose is soluble in blood. It is transported by the blood cells to various parts of the body where it reacts with oxygen in a series of steps producing carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O) and energy. The burning of food in the cells results in the free of energy is called respiration. Carbon dioxide and water, which are formed during respiration, are transferred through various organs of the body. The energy released in respiration fulfils the energy needs of the body. Aerobic Respiration Aerobic respiration is the process that takes place in presence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration break down molecules to get hold of bio-chemical energy and has oxygen. Molecules used by cells in aerobic respiration are glucose, amino acids and fatty acids. Glucose + Oxygen →Energy + Carbon dioxide + Water The aerobic respiration is an energy making process. During the process of aerobic respiration as many as 38 molecules of ATP are produced for every molecule of glucose that is utilized. Aerobic respiration process breaks down a single glucose molecule to yield 38 units of the energy storing ATP molecules. Anaerobic respiration. The term anaerobic means without air, which takes place without oxygen. Anaerobic...

...functions of the circulatory system are to move blood and lymph throughout the whole body, which transports nutrients and oxygen to cells of the body and removes waste products like carbon dioxide, and to keep temperature and pH levels regulated. 2) What organs are part of this system? The organs that are part of the circulatory system are the heart, the blood vessels, the arteries, the veins and the lungs, which aren't actually part of the circulatory system organs, but do help the circulatory system in doing its job a lot. 3) What do each of these organs do? Each of these organs do a different but very important job for the human body. The arteries take blood that is rich in oxygen from the heart and spread it all around the body. The veins take blood that is poor in oxygen back to the heart. The blood vessels take oxygenated blood from the heart, gives oxygen to the and nutrients to the body's cells and gives back the deoxygenated blood back to the heart. The lungs, which aren't actually technically part of the circulatory system but they actually make it possible for the heart to function properly. The lungs give oxygen to the body and send blood...

...Homeostasis within the body can be measured by the main vital signs: heart rate, temperature, respiratory rate and blood pressure. pH is also important to measure homeostasis, but cannot be readily measured without drawing blood. Each of these measurements are controlled by body systems, that work together to maintain proper ranges. The metabolism is a measurement of the chemical energy needed to run these systems, which are fueled by cellular respiration, a process that breaks down glucose and converts it into ATP while releasing waste. ATP allows our muscles to move, and since every organ in our body is a muscle, we must have ATP! This ATP primarily comes from the breakdown of food; each organ system must be properly working for our cells to have the correct fuel needed to perform respiration. However, it is a circle because cellular respiration is a mini-form of homeostasis that must be maintained at a cell level for the rest of the body to have the necessary energy to carry out the physiologic processes for survival....
