HUMAN CIRCULATORY SYSTEM

๐Ÿ˜ŽHuman Circulatory System๐Ÿ˜Ž



  1. Human circulatory framework, additionally called the blood vascular framework comprises of a strong chambered heart, an organization of shut fanning veins and blood, the liquid which is circled. 
  2. Heart, the mesodermal determined organ, is arranged in the thoracic hole, in the middle of the two lungs, marginally inclined to one side.
  3. It has the size of a held clench hand. It is ensured by a twofold walled membranous sack, pericardium, encasing the pericardial liquid. 
  4. Our heart has four chambers, two moderately little upper chambers called atria and two bigger lower chambers called ventricles. 

  5. A slight, solid divider called the interatrial septum isolates the privilege and the left atria, while a thick-walled, the between ventricular septum, isolates the left and the correct ventricles. 
  6. The chamber and the ventricle of a similar side are likewise isolated by a thick stringy tissue called the atrio-ventricular septum. 
  7. Notwithstanding, each of these septa are given an opening through which the two offices of a similar side are associated. 
  8. The opening between the correct chamber and the correct ventricle is protected by a valve framed of three strong folds or cusps, the tricuspid valve, while a bicuspid or mitral valve monitors the opening between the left chamber and the left ventricle. 
  9. The openings of the privilege and the left ventricles into the pulmonary vein and the aorta separately are furnished with the semilunar valves. 
  10. The valves in the heart permits the progression of blood just one way, i.e., from the atria to the ventricles and from the ventricles to the aspiratory vein or aorta. 

  11. These valves forestall any retrogressive stream. 
  12. The whole heart is made of cardiovascular muscles. 
  13. The dividers of ventricles are a lot thicker than that of the atria. 
  14. A specific cardiovascular musculature called the nodal tissue is likewise disseminated in the heart. A fix of this tissue is available in the correct upper corner of the correct chamber called the sino-atrial node (SAN). 
  15. Another mass of this tissue is found in the lower left corner of the correct chamber near the atrio-ventricular septum called the atrio-ventricular node (AVN). 
  16. A heap of nodal filaments, atrioventricular group (AV pack) proceeds from the AVN which goes through the atrio-ventricular septa to arise on the highest point of the interventricular septum and quickly isolates into a privilege and left pack. These branches offer ascent to minute strands all through the ventricular musculature of the particular sides and are called purkinje filaments. 
  17. The nodal musculature can create activity possibilities with no outer improvements, i.e., it is autoexcitable. 
  18. Nonetheless, the quantity of activity possibilities that could be created in a moment change at various pieces of the nodal framework. 
  19. The SAN can create the most extreme number of activity possibilities, i.e., 70-75 min–1 , and is liable for starting and keeping up the musical contractile movement of the heart. 
  20. In this manner, it is known as the pacemaker.
  21.  Our heart regularly pulsates 70-75 times in a moment (normal 72 thumps min–1).

ELECTROCARDIOGRAPH

  Electrocardiograph (ECG)  You are probably familiar with this scene from a typical hospital television show: A patient is hooked up to a monitoring machine that shows voltage traces on a screen and makes the sound “... pip... pip... pip..... peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee” as the patient goes into cardiac arrest.  This type of machine (electro-cardiograph) is used to obtain an electrocardiogram (ECG). ECG is a graphical representation of the electrical activity of the heart during a cardiac cycle.  To obtain a standard ECG, a patient is connected to the machine with three electrical leads (one to each wrist and to the left ankle) that continuously monitor the heart activity.  For a detailed evaluation of the heart’s function, multiple leads are attached to the chest region.  Here, we will talk only about a standard ECG.  Each peak in the ECG is identified with a letter from P to T that corresponds to a specific electrical activity of the heart.  The P-wave represents the electrical excitati

AIR POLLUTION

AIR POLLUTION   We are dependent on air for our respiratory needs.  Air pollutants cause injury to all living organisms.  They reduce growth and yield of crops and cause premature death of plants.  Air pollutants also deleteriously affect the respiratory system of humans and of animals.  Harmful effects depend on the concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure and the organism.  Smokestacks of thermal power plants, smelters and other industries release particulate and gaseous air pollutants together with harmless gases, such as nitrogen, oxygen, etc.  These pollutants must be separated/ filtered out before releasing the harmless gases into the atmosphere.  Electrostatic precipitator There are several ways of removing particulate matter; the most widely used of which is the electrostatic precipitator, which can remove over 99 per cent particulate matter present in the exhaust from a thermal power plant.  It has electrode wires that are maintained at several thousand volts, which p

Solid Waste

 SOLID WASTES  Solid wastes refer to everything that goes out in trash.  Municipal solid wastes are wastes from homes, offices, stores, schools, hospitals, etc., that are collected and disposed by the municipality.  The municipal solid wastes generally comprise paper, food wastes, plastics, glass, metals, rubber, leather, textile, etc.  Burning reduces the volume of the wastes, although it is generally not burnt to completion and open dumps often serve as the breeding ground for rats and flies.  Sanitary landfills were adopted as the substitute for open-burning dumps.  In a sanitary landfill, wastes are dumped in a depression or trench after compaction, and covered with dirt everyday.  Landfills are also not really much of a solution since the amount of garbage generation specially in the metros has increased so much that these sites are getting filled too.  Also there is danger of seepage of chemicals, etc., from these landfills polluting the underground water resources.  A solution t
