https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d Information about the respiratory and endocrine system by Carlo Castillo and Daniel Villegas en-us 2023-04-22 18:10:52 UTC 2023-04-24 17:55:28 UTC hello@padlet.com danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2564461482 The main function of the Endocrine System is to monitor the amount of hormones in the blood. The Endocrine System sends Hormones to the blood and then they travel all over the body. They can go to the skin, organs, muscles, and tissue. These glands can control what the body does and when to do it. ]]> 2023-04-23 05:11:49 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2564461482 danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2564461947 The Endocrine System is made up of many different organs called Glands all over the body. These glands are the ones that release and control the amount of hormones in the blood. ]]> 2023-04-23 05:13:53 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2564461947 danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2564463514 In the Endocrine System the main way it maintains Homeostasis is by Feedback Loops. The Hypothalamus in the brain communicates with the pituitary gland. The Hypothalamus sends messages to the pituitary gland which then sends the hormone (message) to another gland indicating that the low amount of hormones in the blood. If there is a low level of hormones then it keeps pumping more hormones to the blood. Once the level is stable the gland stops secreting the hormone. ]]> 2023-04-23 05:21:59 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2564463514 danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565111614 Diabetes- The First disease that can affect the Endocrine System is Diabetes. Diabetes is linked with the Endocrine System because of the Pancreas. When both Type 1 and 2 Diabetes occur it is because the Pancreas is not able to release the hormone Insulin. This causes the blood sugar level in the blood to not be able and reach homeostasis. The difference is that in Type 1 Diabetes it is an autoimmune disorder. Type 2 Diabetes is developed over time and it occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin. The Pancreas needs to work harder and harder eventually giving up. 

Hypothyroidism- Another disorder that can affect the Endocrine System is Hypothyroidism. This is a disorder where the Thyroid doesn't release enough hormones into the blood. The main effects are a slow metabolism, unable to tolerate cold temperatures, tiredness, and weight gain. If the levels of the Thyroid gland get too low it can turn to Myxedema which leads to Anemia, low body temperature, and heart failure. ]]> 2023-04-24 03:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565111614 danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565179298 1. The Endocrine System is responsible for all of the body's biological processes from being a fetus throughout your life. 

2. Sleep is also affected by the Endocrine System. The Pineal Gland in the body secretes a hormone called Melatonin this hormone activates the sleep cycle of the 24-hour cycle of the body. ]]> 2023-04-24 05:16:23 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565179298 danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565188333 Hormones are chemical messages that the body sends through the blood with the help of the glands/organs all over the body. There are over 50 Hormones in the human body each with different messages for different purposes. ]]> 2023-04-24 05:24:57 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565188333 danielvillegas496 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565196688 “Hypothyroidism: Symptoms, Causes, Treatment & Medication.” Cleveland Clinic, https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/12120-hypothyroidism.

- Allows us to talk and to smell
- Warms air to match our body temperature and moisturizes it to the humidity level your body needs.
- Deliver oxygen to the cells in our body.
- Removes waste gases, including carbon dioxide, from the body when you exhale 
- Protects your airways from harmful substances and irritants. ]]> 2023-04-24 05:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565197829 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565240248 When you inhale, air enters your lungs, and oxygen from that air moves to your blood. At the same time, carbon dioxide, a waste gas, moves from your blood to the lungs and is exhaled. This process, called gas exchange, is essential to life. ]]> 2023-04-24 06:22:57 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565240248 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565323752 What is asthma? Asthma is a chronic (long-term) condition that affects the airways in the lungs. The airways are tubes that carry air in and out of your lungs. If you have asthma, the airways can become inflamed and narrow at times. This makes it harder for air to flow out of your airways when you breathe out. About 8.3% of American have asthma. Of these 26.5 million, 20.4 million are adults and 6.1 million are children.]]> 2023-04-24 07:41:57 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565323752 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565837173 Your lungs are on each side of your heart, inside your chest cavity. They are the main organs of the respiratory system. The right lung is divided into three lobes, and the left lung is divided into two lobes. Your left lung is slightly smaller than your right lung, since your heart takes up some space ont he left side. When you breath in, air enter your airways and travels down into the air sacs in your lungs. This is where gas exchange takes place. The circulatory system, which is made up of the heart and blood vessel, supports the respiratory system by bringing blood to and from the lungs. The circulatory system helps deliver nutrient and oxygen from the lungs to tissues and organs throughout the body. It also helps remove carbon dioxide and waste product. Other body system that work with the respiratory system include the nervous system, lymphatic system, and immune system. The airways are pipes that carry oxygen-rich air to the alveoli in your lungs. They also carry the waste gas carbon dioxide out of your lungs. The airways include these body parts:
- mouth
- Nose
- Larynx (voice box)
- Trachea (windpipe)
- Tubes called bronchial tubes
- smaller tubes called bronchioles that branch off of the bronchial tubes. 
The flow of the air of your body. 
- Air comes into your body
- Air fills your lungs' air sacs 
- Blood low in oxygen flows through the lungs 
- Oxygen flows into your blood]]> 2023-04-24 14:50:37 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565837173 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565855476 The mouth and nose are the first lines of defense against invaders trying to enter the respiratory system. Coughing and sneezing are important for expelling mucus and clearing the airways. Mucus traps bacteria, viruses, and dust before the progress further into the body. Also, tiny hairs in the nose and trachea have a thin coating of mucus to catch and hold particulates until they are expelled. The lungs also have vessels containing a fibrinolytic system that dissolves clots that try to pass through.]]> 2023-04-24 15:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565855476 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565868431 Pneumonia
Pneumonia is a common lung disease caused by an infection in the air sacs in the lungs. The infections can be bacterial, viral, or fungal. Most people can recover in one to three weeks, but for certain people, pneumonia can be extremely serious and even life-threatening.
Covid-19
The illnesses listed above have all withstood the test of time. COVID-19, however, is still new, and scientists and clinicians are still learning about it. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) define COVID-19 as a respiratory illness that belongs to a large family of coronaviruses. This type of virus infects humans and animals, but the original strain, variants and subvariants weren't seen in humans before 2019. It spreads mainly between people within about 6 feet of each other through droplets released when an infected person coughs, sneezes or talks. The primary symptoms are cough, shortness of breath and fever with an average recovery time between one and two weeks

2. It is possible to live with just one lung
3. Some air never leaves your lungs
4. Coughing, sneezing and yawning are natural mechanism
5. The lungs are the only organs that can float on water

]]> 2023-04-24 15:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565880785 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2565882134 Respiratory homeostasis is concerned with the regulation of a blood gas composition that is compatible with maintaining cellular homeostasis. Provided that the lung-capillary exchange barrier does not prevent the exchange of gases, then blood leaving the lung will have oxygen and carbon dioxide partial pressures that are similar to the average values found in the alveoli. Alveolar ventilation establishes these values. If blood gas composition, especially of carbon dioxide, moves outside the homeostatic range, the change is detected by chemoreceptors and respiratory responses are promoted which change alveolar ventilation, alter alveolar gas composition and so reverse the change. Ventilation therapies provide the means of artificially restoring alveolar gas composition. In general terms, they do this by raising the partial pressure of oxygen within the alveoli either by using oxygen-enriched gas mixtures, or by improving the ventilation of alveoli using positive pressure.
The endocrine system consists of ductless glands that secrete hormones into the blood stream. These hormones drive the homeostatic feedback loops that keep the body healthy and in equilibrium. The endocrine system is intimately integrated into physiological processes in order for it to carry out its functions. The major endocrine glands in humans are the pituitary gland, pineal gland, ovaries, testes, pancreas, thyroid, parathyroid, and the adrenals. The hypothalamus-pituitary complex in the brain is the main neural control center for all endocrine glands and systems. Several organs in the body have secondary endocrine functions such as the heart, gonads, bones, kidneys, and liver. In addition to their homeostatic functions, hormones coordinate growth, reproduction and many other processes.
The endocrine and respiratory system work together to maintain oxygen blood in the body and to make sure that our body maintain enough body heat to function properly.

The results of our experimental and clinical studies of the levels of hormones in afferent and efferent pulmonary blood flow revealed previously unknown or unnoticed phenomena that lung tissue participate in qualitative and quantitative state of all studied hormones in general arterial blood flow in humans and experimental animals. We have also proved that central neurogenic regulation of transit, storage or release of above mentioned hormones into arterial blood is greatly influenced by physiological status of hypothalamic structures. Thus, the system of entire hormonal homeostasis is added by important and mandatory physiological unit - the lungs. In our opinion this system should be viewed as: HORMONES- VENOUS CIRCULATION- LUNGS- ARTERIAL CIRCULATION-TARGET TISSUES. It is not unreasonable to assume that by influencing respiratory function we can influence the level of hormones in the entire organism. If this theory is proved to be correct the simple but effective therapeutic modalities of changing frequency of respirations or holding the breaths can be used in treatment of multitude of pathophysiological conditions.]]> 2023-04-24 17:40:46 UTC https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2566074959 https://padlet.com/holypony101/eb39trvfj9jnr95d/wish/2566092906 “Respiratory System: Functions, Facts, Organs & Anatomy.” Cleveland Clinic, https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/21205-respiratory-system.
