Answer:

1. Biological structure of the human body

The human body is organized in different levels according to their complexity.

The levels are the folowing (increasing complexity).

1. Atom (N, O, C,..)

2. Molecule (Protein, lipids, water...)

3. Organelle (mitochondria, golgi apparatus,...)

4. Cell (blood cells, bone cell,..)

5. Tissue (connective tissue, epithelial tissue,..)

6. Organ (lungs, kidney,..)

7. Organ system (skeletal system, muscuar system,...)

8. Organism (the human body)

Each of the levels is formed by an agrupation of the previous level. For example, cells are formed by a number of organelles, and a group of cells form a tissue.

Cells are the basic units of structure of the body, and there are different types of them.

2. Homeostasis

Homeostasis is a process of the body by which the organism works to maintain a stable internal environment, while adjusting to changes in the external environment.

This process is possible because of the work of both the nervous system and the endocrine system. While the first controles the body's activities and detects the necesity of adjustments, the second regulates the activities by using hormones.

Into which chamber of the heart do the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, and coronary sinus return deoxygenated blood? Cir
azamat

Answer:

  • Human heart is comprised of four regions, components, zones or muscular containers. As, the blood quality is regulated by the blood, by keeping the deoxygenated form of blood apart from the oxygenated form of blood inside the heart and then provide suffiecient amount of materials, solutes, and other nutrients to the different tissues and organs of the human body in a proper manner.
  • The deoxygenated form of blood is collected and brought to the right atrium by <u>the superior and inferior venacava</u>, as it provides a more safer route for the transportation of these materials in order to remove the unwanted substance from it by sending it back to the lungs through the pulmonary artery.
  • Inside the lungs the blood is cleaned up and then sent back to the heart in order to be pumped into the different portions of the heart.
