digestive system and respiratory system: human disorder
The Digestive and Respiratory System: Human Disorders
Introduction:
The human body is a very efficient machine. Most of the time it works well, adjusting to changes in the environment, resisting infections, and adapting to meet a host of potential dangers. However, the human body is not perfect; it cannot always cope with a particular infection or its own systems may fail and sickness results. This assignment will give you an understanding of one disorder in detail. It should make you aware of sources of information about human disorders, or the many support programs that are available for some diseases and give you a greater understanding of the problems that face some disabled or afflicted person.
Assignment:
It adds interest to the topic if you can select a disorder with which you are familiar, either directly or indirectly. Perhaps you, or a member of your family, have suffered from a particular disorder and you could usefully learn more about the disease. There are two parts to this assignment.
- Research a disorder that can occur in the digestive Or respiratipry system and prepare a report using the following as an outline (should be aprox. 2 pages long):
- Title Page
