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).

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 m...

RADIOACTIVE WASTES

  RADIOACTIVE WASTES  Initially, nuclear energy was hailed as a non-polluting way for generating electricity.  Later on, it was realised that the use of nuclear energy has two very serious inherent problems.  The first is accidental leakage, as occurred in the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl incidents and the second is safe disposal of radioactive wastes.  Radiation, that is given off by nuclear waste is extremely damaging to biological organisms, because it causes mutations to occur at a very high rate.  At high doses, nuclear radiation is lethal but at lower doses, it creates various disorders, the most frequent of all being cancer.  Therefore, nuclear waste is an extremely potent pollutant and has to be dealt with utmost caution.  It has been recommended that storage of nuclear waste, after sufficient pre-treatment, should be done in suitably shielded containers buried within the rocks, about 500 m deep below the earth’s surface.  However,...

DIGESTIVE GLANDS

  DIGESTIVE GLANDS Salivary gland   Saliva is mainly produced by three pairs of salivary glands, the parotids (cheek), the sub-maxillary/submandibular (lower jaw) and the sub-linguals (below the tongue).  These glands situated just outside the buccal cavity secrete salivary juice into the buccal cavity. liver  Liver is the largest gland of the body weighing about 1.2 to 1.5 kg in an adult human.  It is situated in the abdominal cavity , just below the diaphragm and has two lobes. The hepatic lobules are the structural and functional units of liver containing hepatic cells arranged in the form of cords.  Each lobule is covered by a thin connective tissue sheath known the Glisson's. The bile secreted by the hepatic cells passes through the hepatic ducts and is stored and concentrated in a thin muscular sac known the gall bladder.  The duct of Gall bladder (cystic duct) along with the hepatic duct from the liver forms the common bile duct The bile...
