The immune system is exceedingly complex in its constituent cells, molecules, and signaling pathways. Each major component of the immune system is critical for survival; immune activity protects against infections that would quickly be lethal without immune defenses and eliminates cells in the stages of cancerous transformation. Two scholarly article citation APA format 1. What […]
A 29-year-old female develops sepsis and, as a consequence, she experiences profound vasodilation. a) What effect does vasodilation have on the afterload? Explain why. b) What effect does vasodilation have on blood pressure? Explain why. How will her body try to bring her blood pressure back to homeostasis? Be detailed in your explanation and support […]

The lymphatic system plays a vital role in the body’s defense against pathogens. A key component of the defense system is lymph nodes. How do lymph nodes function to prevent infection and how do they differ from lymph nodules? If the body suddenly lost 50% of its lymph nodes, how do you think this would […]
Negative feedback mechanism Assignment- Homeostasis Read about Homeostasis, specifically “Negative Feedback Mechanism.” You may use/Google other sources and watch videos if you need more explanation. Your assignment is to give two (2) specific examples of a negative feedback mechanism, but summarize it in… short phrases listed in a bulleted, from the 1) stimulus to 2) […]
D3b Consider cell structure and functions, and the organization and function of the human body. When viewed together, this implies the functions of the human body are dependent upon cellular activity. Explain why this would be correct. An important cellular structure is the cell (plasma) membrane. Identify and explain a specific function of the cell […]
D4B Consider the integumentary system in detail. Explain the structures of this system that qualifies it to be termed a system. Identify one function of the integumentary system you feel is the most important and why. Hypothesize that the function you identified ceased to function – how would homeostasis be impacted?
Module 1 Assignment: Research and Report Structure dictates function. A change in the structure of a molecule affects the role it plays in a pathway. A slight change at the molecular level causes disruptions at the atomic level. This error is perpetuated throughout all higher levels of organization and presents as a sign or symptom […]
Consider homeostasis as a characteristic of life which means it must be an important factor in a healthy human body. What is the definition of homeostasis and what is a specific human body example? Explain what could happen if the body did not maintain homeostasis for an extended period.
