stuffs really matter. [WHAT?]

i miss messing up this blog SOOOOOOO much. :((

i wish i still have the assignment to BLOG what i am learning every meeting. argh. my Bio1 (GenBio) Professor just give inputs. Unfortunately, I really don't understand what she's saying :(

argh. i really miss AdvBio so much :|

general steps. :)

this is my video for the fourth and last quarter. :)

gulp swallow. :D

scappie.

gastrointestinal system is composed of mouth, teeth, tongue, salivary glands, esophagus, pharynx, stomach, liver, pancreas, gall bladder, small intestine, large intestine and anus. some of the organs are called the accessory organs because they take part of the digestive process by not entering into them. they are teeth, salivary glands, liver, pancreas, and gall bladder. anyway. i got this interesting because this is the system that goes with my favorite pasttime: eating. okay okay. the digestive process starts with ingestion of food. ingestion is the process of intake of food in the mouth. mastication takes place when the mechanical churning of food by the use of teeth. the food turns into bolus, a ball-like structure of food. when bolus was transported into the stomach, digestion or chemical churning of food happens. in this part, bolus will become chyme, the milky substance of food. when it goes through the small intestine, secretion happens. it is secretion because certain hormones are produced in order to get the nutrients from the food taken. when the nutrients are absorbed and the chyme is transported to the large intestine. it performs the process of absorption. in this stage, the large intestine absorbs the excess water in the chyme, and therefore turns into feces. when it goes to the anus, they execute excretion or disposal of waste products.

doo.

honestly, i understood this because of reading, not because of the one who reported this stuff. i found deficiencies in his report. but then, i liked how sir answers our question and at the same time, to simplify the topic into an easier one.

scooby.

if i were to teach this, i would use pipes here. :) easy demonstration. :D

immunity. :D

*characharadii.

lymphatic system. hmm. it is a system, along with the immune system, that helps the body to be immune and protect from various diseases, viruses and bacteria. well. there are two kinds of immunity: innate and adaptive. innate is the first line defense, but it couldn't remember what it had attacked before so it might attack our own healthy cells. :) adaptive, on the other hand, take care of the viruses and bacteria if innate haven't killed them. they remember what they had previously attacked, so they are capable of knowing what to do about those viruses they have experienced. well, there is a substance called lymph fluid that looks blood for me and goes around the body. it goes this way: blood to tissue to lymphatic capillaries to lymphatic vessels to lymph nodes to lymphatic vessels to lymphatic trunks to collecting ducts to subclavian veins and circulates again. and wait, there's more. :) there are some components that helps immunizing the body. they are barriers, cells, inflammation and fever. i want to focus more on cells because of the white blood cells. there are different kinds of white blood cells. wait. let's divide WBCs. it can be like this:

WBC - polymorphonuclear granulocyte - neutrophils

basophils

mast cells

eosinophils

WBC - agranulocyte - monocytes - macrophages

dendritic cells

WBC - agranulocyte - lymphocytes - natural killer cells

T lymphocytes

B lymphocytes

almost same explanation as what i have done in cardiovascular. the difference is that there's no pumping station [heart.] :)

*power!

if i were the teacher, i would give some interactive and educational clips and games so that it would be nice to be done not only for the students, but also for the teacher so that it will not be BORING. :)

breathe.

okay okay.

the respiratory system composes of nose, pharynx, trachea, bronchi and lungs. this system, with the cardiovascular system, is collectively known as cardiopulmonary system since they compliment each other regarding the collection and transportation of oxygen throughout our body. honestly, i didn't understand this from the reporter. at the same time, my head got short circuit, resulting to overstress and fatigue that make me no interest on the topic anymore. anyway, where am i? oh. lungs are cone-shaped organs that takes up the most space in our chests. in it happens the exchange of gases and wastes to the blood and vice versa. what our body needs in order to live is the oxygen. but everything has its by-product after it was processed. in our case, the by-product is the carbon dioxide. in lungs, as oxygen approaches the lungs, particularly in capillaries, carbon dioxide go out from the blood to the lungs and be transported out from the system. btw. ventilation is different from respiration. when we say ventilation, it is the process where air fills our lungs. on the other hand, respiration is the process where the actual exchange happens. interesting? i got twisted by this terms, too.

duh, right.

i will explain this with the use of an aspirator, the one used in cleaning keyboards, etc. ? i will continuosly press and release it to let the one who doesn't understand can understand how we breathe. series of careful explanation, non-ending drills, and powerful discussions [not angry-wise. :) ]

ows?

if i were the teacher, i would be in front of them and give them inhale-exhale procedures. after that, we will have some discussions on how everything in the respiratory system works. :)
