Mason’s objective that he wanted to cover was to “Know the stages of bone development and repair”, found in unit 4 which covered the skeletal system. He focused on the bone deteriorating disease osteoporosis and how growth and sex hormones play an important roll in the health and development of …
A stroke occurs when something disrupts the blood supply to part of the brain. Two types of strokes can occur (CDC, 2023). However, most strokes are ischemic strokes. An ischemic stroke occurs when blood clots or particles block the blood vessels in the brain (CDC, 2023). The brain controls our movements, …
A central idea in physiology is the sliding filament model of muscle contraction, which describes muscle force and movement. The process involves the interaction between thin actin and thick myosin filaments in muscle fibers. Tetanus is a disease that interrupts this natural occurrence caused by the so-called tetanus toxin and …
The Growth of Skeletal Muscles after Repeated Exercise of Specific Muscles Hello everyone! This is my short summary explaining the image below! I selected the muscles of the skeletal system, and how they change with repeated exercise. This process of change is long and complicated, so we are in for …
My art project is on Glenohumeral Joint Instability and the objective I am covering is ‘relate the interaction of muscles and the skeletal system’. In my project I have shown a young male athlete having trouble with his shoulder while swimming. When he goes to his doctor for help, he …
Haleah Schmidt Steam Project F11 I chose to do my research project on the nervous system; more specifically the frontal lobe. I dove into the nervous system focusing in on the pre frontal cortex (the front part of the frontal lobe). The pre frontal cortex is connected to symptoms such …
How do fractures affect bone integrity following the initial healing? How long do fractures affect the bone density? Researching these questions has helped me understand bone remodeling and repair more thoroughly. One of the most common types of fractures in geriatric patients is a femoral neck fracture and it is …
My STEAM project describes the integumentary system tissues and functions in healthy skin. Once establishing healthy skin, I explain the presentation and physiology of psoriasis. My project is a cake that captures the integumentary system when it is functioning normally as well as how it presents with psoriasis.
