Explain how 5 Diffrent organs function (physiology) is depentent on Structure (anatomy) and how they complement each other

Writing Assignment I
This Assignment involves reading through a section in the textbook, comparing that to information gleaned from a scientific article, and then relating that back to previous chapter material. The Assignment revolves around thyroid hormone physiology. Besides this being a written assignment, it also illustrates an awesome method of study, preparation and learning.
Steps of the Assignment:
Read from the text, Section 23.3 – “Thyroid Hormones’, two specific sub-sections under the headings ‘Thyroid Hormones Contain Iodine’ and ‘TSH Controls the Thyroid Gland’. Also look at Figures 23.4 and 23.5 for the information displayed there.
Also from the text, Chapter 7 – Look intently at Table 7.1, specifically the characteristics listed in the ‘Thyroid Hormones’ column. Pay attention to what each characteristic is (i.e. the characteristic categories as listed on the left side of Table 7.1)
Read from the following scientific article: Carvalho & Dupuy – Thyroid Article.pdf – Sections 1 through 4 (Introduction; Molecules Involved; Mechanisms of Synthesis; Thyroid Hormone Release).
Your first goal is to relate the material in those two sub-sections of Chapter 23 (Section 23.3) back to material previously covered in Chapters 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6, by identifying topic(s) of those chapters which are exemplified in that Chapter 23 material.
Your second goal is to identify material in the scientific article which expands on material mentioned in Chapter 23. As an example (which you can certainly use to get things rolling): the first sentence of the second paragraph of the ‘Thyroid Hormones Contain Iodine’ sub-section states that thyroid hormones are amines derived from the amino acid tyrosine. That’s a great piece of information (in fact, that’s why thyroid hormones are classified as amines), But it’s not anywhere near the full story. The article goes on to explain where exactly the tyrosine is ‘derived’ from, to make the thyroid hormones. This would be a place you could ‘expand’ on the material with a sentence something like “Thyroid hormones are derived from tyrosine obtained from the thyroglobulin protein in the thyroid follicle”.
Envision your finished written product a series of 6 paragraphs, with each paragraph being a series of brief sentences/statements. The first paragraph should contain statements relating the Chapter 23 material back to topics from Chapter 2. The second paragraph should contain statements relating the Chapter 23 material back to topics from Chapter 3. And so on, with the first 5 paragraphs of your written work relating back to topics from Chapters 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 and the last paragraph containing statements where you see the article expanding on the material from Chapter 23 (Section 23.3) – similar to the example above.
Some tips and grading information:
This probably won’t be something you complete in one sitting. The submission of the Assignment will be into a Text Box in the Assignment Folder. It will probably work best to work on this over time in a document program (such as Word or Google Docs) and then when you are finished and ready to submit it, paste it all into the Text Box. There is no way to save work in the Text Box and come back to it later.
The best written work I can envision will take every single instance described in the Chapter 23.3 material that exemplifies previous course content and identify it as such. Grading of your written work will involve looking for your identification of the topics from Chapters 2 through 6 that appear in the Chapter 23 material.
Chapters 2 through 6 are not represented equally in the material from Chapter 23, some will be more represented, some less.
For the part where you expand on Chapter 23 material with related information from the scientific article, I am envisioning the best written work to contain 5 such statements. There are many more than 5 opportunities for this expansion. Use the example in Step 5 above as the first, if you wish.
Each paragraph will contribute equally during scoring, meaning relating back to Chapter 2 topics = 1/6 of your score; relating back to Chapter 3 topics = 1/6 of your score, etc…………….expanding on Chapter 23 with material from the article = 1/6 of your score.

Prompt:
Suppose you are studying a neural circuit that you suspect contains reciprocal inhibition between two neurons. Explain an electrophysiology experiment that you would do to determine whether or not the neurons are reciprocally inhibited. Make sure to specify experimental and control conditions, and explain the data that would support your hypothesis. Drawings are encouraged.

Respond to this Discusion Prompt with at least 200 words and 1 source. I have a few suggestions for possible diagnoses such as, stomach cancer, Barett’s esophagus, and Crohn’s disease. if you prefer to use other diagnosis please ask me first.
A 27-year-old male with a history of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and generalized anxiety disorder has been to the hospital18 times this year for upper abdominal pain. He mentioned that his abdominal pain has no relationship to his diet and that he has lost 30 pounds this year due to the pain. Every time the doctor requested the patient get an upper endoscopy and H. Pylori breath test, the patient refused saying he can’t afford it and just wanted relief from the pain. The patient denied hemoptysis and hematochezia. Vital signs are all within normal limits.
List three differential diagnoses for this patient, along with your rationale supporting each and what tests you would like to order to confirm your suspicion.

Students, the final research project is a Person of Interest. Students will research a person in history, an actor, a serial killer or a world leader for just a few examples. Students are required to utilize Erikson’s, Piaget’s or Freud’s stages of development. The research will examine “The person of interest” through each stage of development and determine in what stage was there a significant occurrence that altered their life.
For this journal entry, name your chosen person of interest and why you chose this person. Note: this is not the submission of the research assignment. This is the Professor’s approval of your choice of “Person of interest”

Chapters 7-9 focused on early childhood experiences and the role of nature and nurture, from The developing person through the life span 11th editio.

the references should be peer reviewed academic journals from academic search complete also a video clip from films on demand and use text book reference the book is life-span growth &development

Bullying is one of the worst things that can happen to a child, and I should know because when I was young, I was bullied, and when my kids were young, they were also bullied,
I survied my bullying attacks and so did my kids, and I even wrote on this topic specifically for this course called “BULLYWARS-HOW TO MAKE YOUR CHILD BULLYPROOF.,
For this course, you can use my book to write a paper on this topic.
Your BULLYWARS PAPER MUST BE DOUBLE-SPACED, IN “APA” STYLE, NO LESS THAN 10 PAGES OF CONTENT, AND A MINIMUM OF 10 PAGES OVERALL, AND NO MORE THAN 13 PAGES AND YOU MUST HAVE ALL CITATIONS OF SOURCES “IN THE BODY OF YOUR WORK AND IN A SEPARTE PAGE CALLED A RESOURCES PAGE.
NOW, TO BE CLEAR, WHEN I SAY NO LESS THAN 7 PAGES OF CONTENT, THAT MEANS YOUR ORIGINAL WRITING AND RESEARCH, AND DOES NOT INCLUDE A COVER PAGE, AN ABSTRACT, AND A BIBLIOGRAPHY./RESOURCES PAGE, WHICH IS WHY, AT MINIMUM, YOU’LL BE SUBMITTING TO ME A TEN PAGE PAPER, BUT NO MORE THAN 13 PAGES.
YOU will provide me with a minimum of 7 different citations/sources, and they can be cited several time in your paper, if needed.
When you’re using the “BULLYWARS” BOOK for your term paper, you are utilizing it as your “base” of operations, as your main “source”, and it should be “sourced” and “referenced” inside your paper, but, it is not your only source for this paper.
To assist you in writing your BULLYWARS paper, I will post an example of how other classmates of yours did their papers.
In my book “BullyWars” please read it, then respond to the following questions:
1. What are the Warning Signs of A Child Being Bullied- Choose 5 Signs and describe them in detail.
2. Is Your Child A Bully?- Choose 5 Signs out of all of the signs I outlined in the book, and describe them in detail.
3. List 5 Ways you can “Help Your Child Deal With Bullying”, and describe them in detail as outlined from my book. Use my book as well as your other sources.
4. Name 4 Ways I describe “How You Can Help Reduce Bullying” and describe them, and then list a 5th reason that I did not state, but one you would like to see because you think it’s effective.
5. Why are more men BULLIES than WOMEN? IS THERE A RISE OR A DECREASE IN THE PERCENTAGE OF FEMALE BULLIES? is there any research on female bullies? WHY HAS THIS OCCURRED?
6. Cite 8 other sources on the topic of bullying (either cyberbullying, or any other form of bullying), and add these references to both the CONTENT of your TERM PAPER, and your REFERENCE LISTS .
REMEMBER- “DO NOT SUBMIT A PAPER IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SOURCES CITED IN THE BODY OF YOUR WORK, AND IN THE REFERENCES/SOURCES AREA (THE LAST PAGE).
THIS PAPER MUST BE SUBMITTED BY OCTOBER 31ST OR EARLIER.
If you don’t want to purchase the book, or if you cannot afford it, let me know, and I’ll see if I can get you a c

Case Study 2: Disorders of Red Blood Cells
Henry is 77 years old and lives with his daughter and son-in-law. He has chronic renal failure but likes to get out whenever he can, and work in his daughter’s backyard garden. Over the last few months, he began to go outside less often. He said that he was feeling unusually tired and he was running out of breath doing the simplest of tasks. He also said that his head ached, and he often felt dizzy. His daughter took him to his doctor, who performed a complete physical examination and diagnosed Henry with anemia.
From what you know of Henry’s history, what type of anemia do you suspect he has?
How would Henry’s red blood cells appear on a peripheral blood smear?
What is the physiologic basis that would explain why Henry’s anemia would cause him to have the symptoms he is experiencing?
Predict the cellular adaptations erythrocytes undergo when chronic hypoxia is present.
How would this be evident on an oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve?
