The nervous system consists of both the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) (Ohana, et al., 2014). The CNS includes the brain, spinal cord, and retina. (Ohana, et al., 2014). The PNS includes all other nervous structures. Such structures include nerves, ganglion, various receptors, and motor …
Rhabdomyolysis, in its simplest definition, is a condition where the intracellular components of skeletal muscle cells are released and enter the bloodstream. An article published in Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine in March of 2010 defines it as “…..the rapid break-down of striated muscle.” (Cervellin, Comelli, & Lippi, 2010) To …
Parkinson’s disease is a chronic and progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects movement and control. Over 8.5 million people, 1% of the population over the age of 55, are affected by Parkinson’s, making it the second most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide.

Over the course of our lives, it is extremely likely that at one point we are going to break a bone. For some of us that comes when we are young, perhaps 18 or younger. For others, we may break a bone later in life, perhaps at the age of …
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease that causes the neurons in the brain to degrade over time, which has a variety of effects (Datta 2024). I chose mostly to depict what the stages of the disease are and what it might look like as the disease progresses. …
The human skeleton undergoes profound changes during puberty, driven by hormonal regulation at the growth plates. This STEAM project visualizes these processes through an artistic representation of a long bone, highlighting the key areas involved in growth and development. By combining art and science, the project bridges complex biological concepts …
Two photos above are the process of my art and the cover photo is the finished painting of different types and states of bone relating to bone infection (osteomyelitis). My project covers the course objective of knowing the stages of bone development and repair. Osteomyelitis is a microbial infection of …
STEAM Project Isabelle Soden Professor Larson Anatomy & Physiology November 21, 2024 Fracturing or breaking a bone is a very common yet unfortunate situation. Humans and animals are very active organisms and sometimes their bones can accidentally break, whether due to physical activity or health issues. There are many reasons …
