Decúbito lateral esquerdo ou dereito: persoa deitada coas penas estendidas e brazos paralelos sobre o lado esquerdo ou dereito. It then travels to the atrioventricular node which makes the signal slow down slightly allowing the ventricles to fill with blood before pumping it out and starting the cycle over again. In addition to their structural role, the larger bones in the body contain bone marrow, the site of production of blood cells. Organs, structured collections of cells with a specific function, [12] mostly sit within the body, with the exception of skin.

Cells that lie on surfaces exposed to the outside world or gastrointestinal tract ( epithelia) or internal cavities ( endothelium) come in numerous shapes and forms – from single layers of flat cells, to cells with small beating hair-like cilia in the lungs, to column-like cells that line the stomach. This is a lifetime supply, as after birth, no more oocytes are produced, compared to males where sperm cells are produced during their entire lifetime. If fertilization fails, the corpus luteum will degrade into the corpus albicans and stop secreting enough progesterone and estrogen, causing the endometrial lining to break resulting in menstruation. Así, está composto de aparellos; a estes intégranos os sistemas, que á súa vez están compostos por órganos, conformados por tecidos, que están formados por células compostas por moléculas.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

imprescindíbel para a existencia do ser humano, que non pode estar sen beber máis de cinco ou seis días sen poñer en risco a súa vida.

For the respiratory system to function properly, there need to be as few impediments as possible to the movement of air within the lungs. Risk factors for coronary artery disease include obesity, smoking, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, lack of exercise and diabetes.

During puberty, the menstrual cycle begins for the first time, in response to low estrogen and progesterone levels the hypothalamus releases gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). Female (left) and male (right) adult human bodies photographed in ventral (above) and dorsal (below) perspectives.The nervous system consists of the body's neurons and glial cells, which together form the nerves, ganglia and gray matter which in turn form the brain and related structures. Valverde, who studied under Vesalius at Padua, used about two-thirds of the illustrations from Vesalius, whom he acknowledged with high praise in his preface.

The RNA is then used to create proteins which form the basis for cells, their activity, and their products. The process begins with fertilisation, where an egg released from the ovary of a female is penetrated by sperm.
