What I know about the Nervous System
The nervous system is primarily composed of the brain, nerves, and other supporting tissues. This system is responsible for coordinating communication within our body. Whenever we feel something from the environment or within ourselves, the information is transmitted through our nerves till it reaches the brain…[Read more]

What I know about the Circulatory Sytem
The circulatory system is include the heart, blood vessels, and lungs. These organs are responsible for circulating blood throughout the body so that all are organs are given oxygen and other nutrients. Wastes and other byproducts are transported as well.

Why is Histology important?
As I’ve learned in biochemistry, the shape or structure of a biomolecule dictates its function. The same principle applies to tissues. The morphology of the cell that constitutes a tissue tells us a lot about what that tissue can do. For example, the cells present in our respiratory tract are coated with cilia that a…[Read more]

The circulatory system refers to the circulation of blood throughout the entire body. It is composed of the heart, blood vessels, and the blood that they transport. The heart pumps blood to all parts of the body delivering the necessary gases and nutrients.

The blood vessels have two kinds: the arteries and veins. The arteries transport…[Read more]

The nervous system is the body’s command center. It is composed of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It communicates by transmitting electrical signals between the brain and the rest of the body. The nervous system monitors what’s happening inside and outside of the body and it determines how to respond to any situation.

The main function of…[Read more]

Whenever I encounter a challenging concept in anatomy and physiology, Crash Course comes to the rescue! In his educational discourse on the urinary system, he breaks down the part called nephrons in our kidneys. These tiny guys do a big job by cleaning waste from our blood and keeping our body’s b…[Read more]

Inside our bodies, we have a special system that moves blood around. It’s like a team of tubes, the heart, and the lungs working together. The heart’s right side sends dirty blood to the lungs, where it gets cleaned up with oxygen. Then, the left side of the heart pushes this clean blood throu…[Read more]

The nervous system is like our body’s texting system, and it’s made of nervous tissue. This tissue acts like super-fast wires that help us move, feel stuff, and think. So, nervous tissue is what makes our texting system work. It sends messages really quick to keep our body doing its thing.

Why is histology important?
Histology is important because it helps us understand how our body tissues are built. Think of it as a kind of “microscope anatomy.” By looking at tiny slices of tissue under a microscope, scientists and doctors can see what’s normal and what’s not. This is super h…[Read more]
