Blood Critical Thinkings Samples For Students

I’m in the Princeton Art museum, in the exhibit “Weapons Throughout Time: Remarkable Instruments of Survival and Warfare.” It’s a small carpeted room where the AC creates a quiet hum over my head and chills my body. Glass cases lined with hatchets, spears, shields, and arrows surround me as my eyes dart around quickly taking in the deadly weapons enclosing me. I sip my coffee to warm myself, enjoying the sweet taste of creamer as it flows down my throat. My eyes finally focus on an arrow that was used by the Lakota Sioux in the 1800’s. Its ...

Congestive heart failure and cardiomyopathy in general terms are complications of heart diseases: a good example is heart attack which damages heart muscles. Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the myocardium or heart muscle where the heart loses the ability to beat at a normal rhythm and pump blood normally. Cardiomyopathy and Congestive heart failure result from various complications and heart diseases such as heart valve disorders, arrhythmias and hypertension (Ghosh, 2010, p. 49).

In a study in 1982, Rosenblatt et al. described following the antibody levels produced against rubella in one patient over seven years (81). They found that the levels cycled in a regular pattern over 365 days, suggesting that the production of antibodies by the immune system varied in a regular way according to season. Another study has found a correlation between melatonin levels and antibody production in mice (Cernysiov et al., 25). Because these cycles could have implications for the timing of voluntary treatments, such as vaccinations, it would be useful to determine if this is actually the case in humans with a study ...

Cholesterol is mainly of two types: high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and low-density lipoproteins (LPL). The first is good cholesterol while the second is the bad cholesterol. Cholesterol plays a big role in the daily functioning of our bodies. This is mainly because it has been known to help make cell membranes. It is also a major composition of the hormones such as estrogen. Production of cholesterol for use in the body occurs in the liver. However, a large percentage of this cholesterol is consumed in people’s diets. Both HDL and LDL are Lipoproteins with a slight difference in structure. In every other essence, ...

Bone marrow is that part of long bones and spongy bones in the medullar cavities which is highly vascular. It produces blood cells ranging from red cells to white cells and platelets. Hence, cellular, active bone marrow is referred to as red marrow. As an individual ages, the red marrow is turned into yellow marrow.

Red marrows are composed of quite a number of capillaries, red cells, white cells, platelets, little fat cells, lymphocytes, water and some minerals.

The red marrow contains both pluripotent stem cells and committed stem cells. The pluripotent cells have the ability to produce various cell ...

The esophagus is simply a tube that transports food to the stomach after being swallowed from the mouth (Cleveland Clinic, 1). Swallowing ensures that epiglottis in the throat is closed hence the food moves down the esophagus, preventing it from moving down through windpipe to the lungs. The contraction and relaxation of the muscles within the esophagus enables the food to move down hence this serves as its anatomical adaptation. This paper traces the pathway of food from the esophagus to the stomach, indicating the anatomical adaptations of each organ involved (Cleveland Clinic, 1).

Abstract

Plasmodium falciparum is the parasite responsible for the deadly disease, malaria. The parasite is transmitted through the injection of sporozoites into the human blood stream. These sporozoites are transported in the blood stream to the liver. The sporozoites invade the hepatocytes and differentiate into merozoites. The merozoites invade the RBCs of the host; starting the blood stage of infection. The trophozoite stage ingests and degrades approximately 80% of the hemoglobin in the host cell. The hemoglobin is broken down into peptides due to enzymatic action by a metalloprotease and cysteine and aspartic proteases. Haematin is first released as a byproduct of ...

Describe the Hemoglobin Digestive Process

P. falciparum, is the parasite responsible for the malaria, a disease that causes approximately one million deaths annually. It undergoes the process of erythrocytic schizogony which is responsible for the clinical manifestations of malaria. The trophozoite ingests and degrades approximately 80% of the hemoglobin in the host cell (Brayl 2005). As the trophozoite continues to develop, its endolysosomal system takes up the cytoplasm of the host cell using cytosomes which contains host hemoglobin. Cytosomes are formed by an invagination formed from the PVM (parasitophorous vacuolar membrane) and PPM (parasite plasma membrane) from which transport vesicles are pinched off. These vesicles ...

In advanced nursing, acute care of pregnant women is an important part. The challenge that is common in this field of nursing is that the nurse must consider the wellbeing of the developing fetus in addition to that of the mother before taking any interventions. One of the first cases I handled was that of Mr. & Mrs. Peterson. I met Mrs. Jessica Peterson, 31 while she was 4 months pregnant after she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus.

In the discipline of nursing, professional advancement and development models are often used as frameworks for recognizing and acknowledging nurses’ clinical expertise, especially the nurses who provide direct care to patients (Gentile, 2012). Most of the earlier models revolved around the tasks that nurses were expected to become familiar with and master as their careers progressed. However, subsequent models went beyond the element of tasks and incorporated elements of leadership, continues education and reflective practice (Gentile, 2012). One of these models is Benner’s Novice to Expert model. This model applies the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition and describes ...

Just to begin with, I would like to note that aneurysm is a terrible disease which can easily lead to death of not well treated. This particular illness always occurs especially when a particular blood vessel such as the artery or the cardiac muscle swells or if the walls of the blood vessels are weak. This implies that as the blood pressure builds up, the weak points of the blood vessels bulges outwards or swells as this disease grows, an individual is exposed to the risk of rupture. This in turn may lead to severe hemorrhagic and then eventually sudden death.

Yes, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters that Asa Philip Randolph led was successful because aside from bringing awareness to the deceitful nature of blacks holding the occupation of car porters, the resulting struggles gained black labor unions federal rights. First, the African American populace considered car porters the elite individuals of the communities because they apparently had “steady jobs and traveled around the country” (Wormser, 2002, par. 2). Contrastingly, as the organization asserted, the occupation merely reverted blacks to the status of slaves meant to serve the Caucasians. After all, car porters earned meager wages for very hard ...

According to Zion and Kozleski (2005), culture refers to “The system of shared beliefs, values, customs, behaviors, and artifacts that the members of society use to interact with their world and with one another” (p. 3).

This is because it makes people who are healthy feel less healthy and this can ...

Politics of Abortion Accessibility

(Author Note)

Abstract

This paper explores five peer-reviewed articles that report studies on the effects of abortion on the well-being of women who underwent abortions. It also reviews an ongoing study that touches on the effects of denied abortions. The paper examines arguments of the health effects, briefly touching also on the economic effects, of abortion and if these effects have great implications whether or not to limit the access of abortion to the female public.
