Sarin and Asphyxiation by Vanessa Podkomorski https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm Describe what Sarin does to the body and how it would effect the respiratory system and cause asphyxiation. en-us 2017-04-07 11:16:11 UTC 2017-04-07 11:51:09 UTC hello@padlet.com Shaniah, Daijah, Lynsey, and Dylan: it continues the flow of ACH and it causes too much muscle contraction (including the diaphragm and the intercostal muscles- which are used in inspiration and to expiration). Because of this, this causes the body to inhale to much O2. https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354175 N]]> 2017-04-07 11:33:11 UTC https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354175 McKenna, Elanny, Weliam, Sofia, and Maya https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354405 Sarin affects the neurotransmitters in the body. The diaphragm and the intercostal muscles keep contracting which means inspiration keeps taking place(too much oxygen is being taken into the body).]]> 2017-04-07 11:34:50 UTC https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354405 https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354453 2017-04-07 11:35:13 UTC https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354453 Epiphany Francisco Lauren Marcus https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354510 Sarin is a nerve agent the inhibits AChEnzyme and causes constant stimulation of muscles. When exposed to sarin, the intercostal muscles and diaphragm are in a state of near constant contraction and the person is unable to exhale, and there is too much oxygen in the lungs]]> 2017-04-07 11:35:40 UTC https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354510 Sarah S, Jessica, Haley, Justin https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354586 Sarin is a poisonous liquid that inhibits the body's ability to catalyze ach. Sarin alters the neurotransmitters and kinks the signaling between our nerves. People can begin to feel dizzy, the heart starts pounding harder, and muscles cramp up. The muscles keep contracting (intercostal muscles and diaphragm). The volume keeps increasing and ach and has to be broken down by ache. You keep getting more oxygen and sarin which could cause unconsciousness and death as the body is not releasing the CO2 and the muscles are not relaxing. ]]> 2017-04-07 11:36:15 UTC https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165354586 kmkhatib13 https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165355228 Sarin causes the muscles to keep contracting and this is not only very painful for skeletal muscle, but very bad for the respiratory muscles. The muscles that are part of the respiratory system continue to contract which brings in too much oxygen resulting in suffocation.]]> 2017-04-07 11:40:39 UTC https://padlet.com/vpodkomorski/n2d3g18kuzlm/wish/165355228
