Respiration of insects




Tracheal system
The openings to the system are called
spiracles (Fig. 19.4)
oxygen enters the tracheal system,
move through the tracheae deep into
the body tissue.
No cell lies far from an oxygen source.

system of an insect.
The vast tracheal system in
insects reaches all cells. It
thus carries on a more-orless direct exchange without
the involvement of the
circulatory system.

A person aged 25 who
smokes two packs of
cigarettes a day will live
about 8.5 years less than
a nonsmoker.

damage is largely
reversible.

diseases because the brain won't allow
their medicines in.

The human vessels



A heart pumps blood into large arteries,
which branch into smaller arterioles,
and finally into capillaries.
Then through venules into veins, and
return to the heart.
In humans, the length of the entire
system is estimated to be between
50,000 and 60,000 miles, 70 percent of
which is capillaries.

Blood pressure


Life Science 2000
The sudden
swell of blood
during systole
expands the
aorta.
During diastole,
blood pressure
remains high
because of the
force of the
aorta on the
remaining
blood in the
vessel.

As the SA node
initiates an

immediately is
fired to the AV
node, which
sends impulses to
the ventricles
along the bundle
of His to Purkinje
fibers, causing the
powerful muscles
to contract in a
specific sequence.

Essay 19.3 Heart attack


Heart attack, it is the result of a
blockage of the arteries that
feed the heart.
When such an artery is blocked,
the oxygen-starved muscles of
the heart begin to die.
Atherosclerosis is the result of the buildup in blood vessels of a
number of substances, such as fat, fibrin, and calcium. These
substances reduce the elasticity of the vessel, and raise blood
pressure.

Essay 19.4 CPR

CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is
a critical lifesaving technique.
1. Check for unconsciousness and lack of
pulse. Call or send for help. Roll the
victim onto his back.
2. Open the airway by lifting the neck
and tilting the chin upward.
3. Check for breathing by holding your
ear close to the victim's mouth, so you
can hear or feel the breathing.
Life Science 2000
26
CPR


4. If there is no breathing, pinch the victim's
nose and press your open mouth against his.
Breathe rapidly into his mouth four times
without allowing the victim to exhale
completely after each ventilation.
5. If the victim begins breathing and has a
pulse, discontinue rescue breathing. If
breathing and pulse are absent, begin chest
compression.





6. Kneel beside the victim. Find a spot two
finger-widths above the tip of the breastbone.
Put the heel of one hand over the other and
place them on this spot.
7. Thrust down, depressing the breast-bone
about an inch and a half. Thrust rhythmically
15 times, about once a second.
8. Lean over quickly, breathe twice into the
victim's mouth (as in step 4).
9. Repeat the cycle of 15 compressions and 2
breaths until help arrives. Check periodically
for pulse. Stop chest compressions if pulse or
breathing resumes.




1. Stand behind the victim.
2. Wrap your arms around
the waist.
3. Make a fist (拳頭) with
one hand, knuckle(指關節)
directed upward and
inward against the victim.
4. Place the knuckles

Essay 19.6 But weight！



About 5,100萬美國人 are regarded as
overweight.
許多人盡力在減肥，但九成減肥者都會
regained weight.
Long-term weight losss involves a
combination of moderate dieting and
moderate exercise, both of which usually
involve some behavior modification.

Anorexia (厭食症)


Anorexia is most commonly found in
women in their teens and early twenties,
a time that psychologists tell us is often
marked by self-doubt and feelings of
insecurity.
Their greatest fear may be of being fat
and hungry, and so they diet, and often
exercise, obsessively (胡思亂想).
Life Science 2000
41
Bulimia (暴食症)



Bulimia refers to "eating like an ox",
sometimes taking in twenty times the
calories of a normal diet.
Then the person vomits(嘔吐), or takes a
laxative(瀉藥) to rid themselves of the food,
both of which can be damaging.
Both bulimia and anorexia can be difficult to
treat, and long-term psychotherapy may be
required.

Lose fat


A discovery in 1995 is
being regarded as a
"breakthrough" in
weight loss; a hormone,
called leptin, that
makes animals--even
thin ones--lose body fat.

An ethical concern



Blood doping involved withdrawing blood
and storing it until the body replenished its
red blood cell count, then returning the
stored blood to the body, thus artificially
elevating the red blood cell count.
Athlete sometimes do this to increase their
endurance, although it is illegal.
Do you think it is fair to punish those who
get caught?
