You have
air passages that consist of nasal passages, an oral cavity, throat (pharynx), a
trachea and two
bronchi .
You have
two lungs consisting of thousands of air sacs called
alveoli . This increases the area of the lungs to the size of a badminton court.
The
diaphragm and
intercostal muscles.
Class activity: study of the lungs of a sheep or a pig
If possible, your educator should have the lungs of a sheep or a pig in the classroom for you to examine while working through this unit.
the human respiratory system
Processes:
There are other systems besides the digestive system that are important for the effective functioning of the body. We will examine the systems for respiration, excretion, propulsion and reproduction, as well as the skeleton.
Every cell in the body of a living organism needs oxygen for
RESPIRATION . It is the
ENERGY-GIVING PROCESS during which glucose is “burned” in the presence of oxygen. The waste product of this process is carbon dioxide.
The part of the cell where this occurs, is the
mitochondria .
These substances get to and from the cells by means of the bloodstream.
BREATHING and
EXCHANGE OF GASES are the processes by which oxygen arrives in the blood and carbon dioxide leaves the blood.
BREATHING: the process by which air moves into and out of the lungs with the help of muscle action. The process of breathing in, or inhalation, is also known as
INSPIRATION and breathing out, or exhalation, is known as
EXPIRATION .
EXCHANGE OF GASES : The process by which gases such as carbon dioxide in the blood and oxygen that is in the air in the lungs are exchanged to get oxygen into the blood and to the cells.
RESPIRATION : the energy-giving process that occurs in the mitochondria in cells. Often people use the term Respiration incorrectly when they mean breathing.
Adaptations that facilitate these processes:
for
BREATHING , we have a
DIAPHRAGM, a muscular partition below the lungs that separates the thoracic and abdominal cavities and contracts and relaxes to alter pressure in the thoracic cavity. There are also
INTERCOSTAL MUSCLES that raise and lower the ribcage.
for
GASEOUS EXCHANGE in the lungs, there are thousands of air sacs, or ALVEOLI, with very thin, moist walls filled with blood vessels.
for
GASEOUS EXCHANGE in the tissues there are fine blood capillaries that extend to each cell, and
tissue fluids that surround the cells and the mitochondria.
EXPLAIN EACH OF THE ADAPTATIONS IN THE TABLE:
Diaphragm
Intercostal muscles
Thousands of alveoli
Thin-walled blood capillaries
Alveoli with single-layer epithelia
Mucus membrane with cilia
Class assignment: DRAWING
Make a sketch to illustrate the alveoli and the blood capillaries that facilitate the movement of gases.
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

Every time someone flushes a toilet in the apartment building, the person begins to jumb back automatically after hearing the flush, before the water temperature changes. Identify the types of learning, if it is classical conditioning identify the NS, UCS, CS and CR. If it is operant conditioning, identify the type of consequence positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement or punishment
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.

I am taking this course because I am hoping that I could somehow learn more about my chosen field of interest and due to the fact that being a PsyD really ignites my passion as an individual the more I hope to learn about developing and literally explore the complexity of my critical thinking skills
hello. autism is a umbrella term. autistic kids have different disorder overlapping. for example. a kid may show symptoms of ADHD and also learning disabilities.
before treatment please make sure the kid doesn't have physical disabilities like hearing..vision..speech problem. sometimes these
Jharna
continue..
sometimes due to these physical problems..the diagnosis may be misdiagnosed.
treatment for autism.
well it depends on the severity.
since autistic kids have problems in communicating and adopting to the environment.. it's best to expose the child in situations where the child
Jharna
child interact with other kids under doc supervision.
play therapy.
speech therapy.
Engaging in different activities that activate most parts of the brain.. like drawing..painting. matching color board game.
string and beads game.
the more you interact with the child the more effective
Jharna
results you'll get..
please consult a therapist to know what suits best on your child.
and last as a parent. I know sometimes it's overwhelming to guide a special kid.
but trust the process and be strong and patient as a parent.
