Corona Radiata
Corona Radiata is a collection of nerve fibers present in the brain that carries messages between the brain cells of the cerebral cortex and the brain stem. Both brain stem and cerebral cortex play a role in motor function and sensation and it is the cor…
Neuron Structure
A neuron is defined as the functional unit of the body system called the nervous system. It is significant in transmitting signals that include receiving and sending the signals from a portion of the brain. The neurons are considered specialized cells in…
Afferent Neurons
Neurons are electrically excitable cells in the body specialized for receiving and transmitting information. They are referred to as the structural units of the nervous system. The important parts of a neuron include the cell body, dendrites, and axons.
Motor Homunculus
The term homunculus is Latin and is referred to as ‘little man’. In neuroanatomy, the cortical homunculus is either the motor or sensory distribution along the cerebral cortex of the brain. It was discovered by the great scientist ‘Wilder Penfield and Ed…
Nervous System
The nervous system is the portion of an animal's body that controls and transmits signals between various parts of the body. The central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) are the two primary components of the nervous system in …

Summary Introduction

To determine: The position of heart and the way by which it is oriented in the thoracic cavity.

Concept introduction: The circulatory system refers to the cardiovascular system of the body. This system includes heart and the blood vessels. Blood vessels are of three types; arteries, capillaries, and veins. The heart is a muscular organ of the circulatory system that pumps blood throughout the body and the blood vessels carry the blood within them. Circulatory system provides oxygen and nutrients to all the cells of the body through blood vessels.

(This is a 2-part work, Part 1 is done, only Part 2 is to be worked on at the bottom)Part 1 (Done): Describe the levels of structural hierarchy for the human body, starting with the organismal level and ending with the chemical level. In addition, you should make sure you link each level to the previous level, emphasizing the structural relationships. The human body is organized into a structural hierarchy that progresses from the macroscopic organismal level down to the microscopic chemical level. Each level builds upon the previous one, creating increasingly complex structures. Below is the hierarchy, from largest to smallest, with explanations linking each level to its predecessor:   1. Organismal Level The entire living human body.Relationship: All lower levels work together to sustain life at this highest level.   2. Organ System Level Groups of organs working together to perform major functions.Examples: circulatory, nervous, digestive systems.Relationship: The organismal…
