Objective56: Examine Differences in Metabolic and Respiratory Acidosis and Alkalosis
These charts broke it down in an easy to understand form. I was able to get a working knowledge of the subject from this website as well as the textbook.
Objective57: Justify the Role of Lacteals in Transporting Products of Digestion
Here is where I learned about lacteals role in transporting products of digestion.
Objective61: State the Chemical Forms in Which the Major Food Classes are Absorbed
Pages 784-785 explain chemical digestion and absorption. I learned these classes are carbohydrates, protein, fat, and nucleic acid. The color coded chart helped me to see the differences in where they are absorbed and how.
Objective64: Discuss How Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide are Transported
This is where I learned about the transport of these gases in the body. They are transported in the blood as it is pumped through the heart and lungs. They are necessary for life. Several illnesses are attributed to abnormalities of this process.
Objective63: Describe the Structure and Function of the Renal Corpuscles and Renal Tubules
This page in the textbook (page 842) taught me about this subject. It explained the renal corpuscles and renal tubules in an easy to understand text. It also provided the basis for my understanding of the glomerular capsule and how loop of Henle contributes to the entire process.
Objective65: State the Importance of Juxtaglomerular Cells in the Secretion of Renin
This page in the textbook, (page 844), helped me understand the importance of the juxtaglomerular cells in the secretion of renin. The diagram was also helpful in my understanding of the process.
Objective62: Describe External and Internal Gross Renal System Anatomy
This website describes the internal renal anatomy while this one describes the External anatomy. Just like I learned most of the anatomy in this class, I labeled these diagrams several times until I became proficient at it.
