MT 13 – GH 1 year, 1 month agoThe nephron is the functional unit of the kidney that generates urine while eliminating waste and excess chemicals from the bloodstream. Each human kidney contains approximately 1,000,000 nephrons. The kidneys (pronephros) of primitive fish, amphibian larvae, and more advanced vertebrate embryos include the most rudimentary nephrons. The nephrons…[Read more]

MT 13 – GH 1 year, 1 month agoThe respiratory system is essential for delivering oxygen to the body and expelling carbon dioxide, both of which are critical for cellular function and overall health. Air enters through the nose, where it is filtered, warmed, and humidified, before traveling down the throat (pharynx) and voice box (larynx). From there, air moves through the…[Read more]

MT 13 – GH 1 year, 1 month agoWhat are the three main differences between arteries and veins?
Primarily, arteries carry blood away from the heart, and veins carry blood towards the heart. Second, with the exception of pulmonary blood vessels, arteries carry oxygenated blood and veins carry deoxygenated blood. Lastly, arteries have thick walls with muscle tissue. Veins have…[Read more]

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 1 month agoWhat are the two types of veins?
The two types of veins are pulmonary and systematic veins. Pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from your tissues to the heart. There are also four (4) pulmonary veins in total
Systematic veins, on the other hand, are veins that carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart. They are further divided into deeps…[Read more] - Load More
