1. Using the correct terminology, describe the normal structure, function and location and interrelationships of each of the major body systems. Also evaluate how the relationships between different body systems affect and support healthy functioning. This should include:
a) Body regulation including:
1. Maintenance of body temperature
2. Fluid and electrolyte (including PH) balance
3. Elimination of wastes from the body
4. Maintenance of blood pressure
b) Protection from infection
c) Physical activity – active and passive
Subject: Human Physiology
. Discuss the effects of aging on various body systems.

- Luke Marks is a 40-year-old male who was brought into ED by ambulance after he came off his motorcycle at 40km/hr after hitting a pothole in the road. The incident was called in by a bystander, an off-duty lifeguard, who helped to stabilise his c-spine by supporting his head (in a badly scratched helmet) and spoke to him until paramedics arrived. Handover from paramedics included: GCS 15, PERRLA, nil evidence of head injury despite a head strike, but Luke was unable to move his arms and legs and stated he had nil sensation in his legs and the sensation in his hands felt strange. The paramedics safely removed his helmet and safely secured a hard collar around his neck before transporting him to hospital. Luke reported pain of 8/10 in his cervical spine but nowhere else. His vital signs were as follows: RR 22, SpO2 98% RA, HR 59bpm, BP 125/63 mmHg, Temp 35.7 degrees. Paramedics administered 8mg IV ondansetron, 5mg s/c morphine and 250ml of NaCl (0.99%) en route.

Angus is an 18-year-old young adult, who Is riding his skateboard in a city park. He is not wearing protective gear, including a helmet. When a friend distracts his attention, he runs head-on into a planter and is thrown over the planter b0x onto the concrete, landing on his left side. He immediately experiences pain in his left side, left wrist, and abdomen. His left wrist is angulated and obviously broken. A head-to-toe assessment demonstrates small, superficial scrapes on the patient's forehead and left cheek. His facial structures appear to be intact. Neurologically, he is normal, with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 14. He has no complaints of shortness of breath, and his chest wall shows no obvious external injury. An x ray of his left wrist shows a comminuted fracture of his left radius and ulna. Angus is taken to the operating room for orthopaedic repair of his left wrist. After surgery, he is admitted to the orthopaedic floor with orders for pain medication as…arrow_forwardRole of Homeostasis in Human Physiology: A Review After reading the article, research what disorders result from loss of homeostasis.

- Legrning Tosk 7: Read and answer the given questions after the lesson. Homeostasis is the state reached when each part of the body functions in equilibrium with other parts. This is attained through the regulation of the bodily functions by the endocrine and nervous systems. Most body system maintain homeostasis by using feedback mechanisms. When the brain receives messages from the body about an internal change in ane of its systems, it works to restore the system to its normal state. The levels of hormones in the body are controlled by feedback. It is important that the amount of homeostasis in our body is kept at the right level. To achieve homeostasis, the nervous and endocrine systems maintain a normal range of the following variables: body temperature, amount of water in the body, amounts of metabollc wastes in the cell, blood calcium level, and hormones in the blood.

What are the two important organ systems help to maintain…arrow_forwardH.warrow_forwardHPI: An otherwise healthy nine-year-old boy developed flu-like symptoms (nausea/vomiting, decreased oral intake, lethargy, and weakness). After three days, the boy’s father called the pediatrician’s office at 8:00PM on a Saturday night. The on-call nurse practitioner returned the call (which was recorded). The father relayed the symptoms and said that Gatorade was making the boy nauseous, but he was still drinking some ginger ale. The father expressed concern about how tired his son was—he’d slept for 24 hours straight (from 8:00 p.m. the previous night). The boy woke up only to be carried downstairs to watch some TV for a little while. He felt a little better than the day before, but he also had some rectal bleeding and some bleeding from his mouth. The NP acknowledged the boy’s symptoms and said that most of it sounded like a viral illness, but that the rectal bleeding could be something different. She asked the father several questions in order to get a better understanding of the…arrow_forward
