The respiratory system, in anatomy and physiology, are organs that deliver oxygen to the circulatory system to be transported to all body cells. The respiratory and circulatory system work together to deliver oxygen to cells and remove carbon dioxide in a two-phase process called respiration.

The first phase of respiration begins with breathing in, or inhalation. Inhalation brings air from outside the body into the lungs. Oxygen in the air moves from the lungs through blood vessels to the heart, which pumps the oxygen-rich blood to all the body. Oxygen then moves from the bloodstream into cells, which completes the first phase of respiration. In the cells, oxygen is used in a separate energy-producing process called cellular respiration, which produces carbon dioxide as a by product.

The second phase of respiration begins with the movement of carbon dioxide from the cells to the bloodstream. The bloodstream carries carbon dioxide to the heart, which pumps the carbon dioxide-laden blood to the lungs. In the lungs, breathing out, or exhalation, removes carbon dioxide from the body, thus completing the respiration cycle.

 

The first phase of respiration completes when ....

Faster planes and cheaper flight are making it easier than ever before for people to travel. In the most ‘developed’ societies, visiting exotic places is a sought-after status symbol. The tourism industries of both developed and developing countries have recognized this fact and are learning to take advantage of it.

There are, however, some problems associated with this new industry. Firstly, there is the increasing crime rate. Some locals see tourist as an easy prey because, not only are they in unfamiliar territory and therefore less able to take care of themselves, but also the carry visible items of wealth, such as cameras and jewelry which can be disposed of quickly for profit.

Another major problem is health. With greater mobility comes greater danger of spreading contagious diseases around the world. One carrier returning home could easily start an epidemic before their illness was diagnosed. Moreover, the emergence of many diseases which resist antibiotics is causing scientists to be increasingly concerned about this issue.

Also to be considered is the natural environment, which can be seriously threatened by too many visitors. Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, for example, is in danger of being destroyed by tourist and there are plans to restrict visitors to some of the more delicate coral cays

There are just three of the reasons why any country should be wary of committing itself to an extensive tourism development program.

In 1854, Louis Pasteur was appointed professor of chemistry at the University of Lille. He demonstrated that organism such as bacteria were responsible for souring wine, beer even milk. He then invented a process where bacteria could be removed by boiling and then cooling the liquid. Today the process is known as pasteurization. He completed the first test on April 20, 1862.      In 1865, Pasteur helped to save the silk industry. He proved that microbes were attacking healthy silkworm eggs, causing the diseases, and the disease can be cured by eliminating the microbes.      Pasteur first vaccine discovery was in 1879, with a disease called chicken pox. After accidentally exposing chicken to the attenuated form, he demonstrated that they became resistant to the actual virus. Pasteur went on to extend his germ theory to develop prototype of vaccine for diseases such as anthrax, cholera, TB, and smallpox.
