In this activity, students filter different substances through a plastic window screen, different sized hardware cloth and poultry netting. Their model shows how the thickness of a filter in the kidney is imperative in deciding what will be filtered out and what will stay within the blood stream.

The kidneys are formed from the intermediate mesoderm. Firstly it begins to thicken longitudinally in its caudal domain. This is called the nephrogenic thickening. From this thickening three so called attempts at producing excretory origins arise. All the attempts have at the histological level a series of excretory tubules however only one of these attempts forms the kidney in adult life.

This problem-based learning module is designed for occupational therapists with a focus on Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease (LCPD). In this module, you will explore the role of occupational therapy in managing LCPD and developing effective interventions with pediatric clients. The goal is to improve the quality of life for your patient.Objectives:Define Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease (LCPD)Determine how LCPD impacts body functions in pediatric clientsIdentify areas of occupation affected by LCPDIdentify common medical treatments for LCPDAssess the client’s needsDevelop interventions that are supported by evidence and are designed to promote maximum independence in this population

The large intestine extends from the ileum of the small intestine to the anus. Water, electrolytes and nutrients are absorbed which concentrates the ingesta into faeces. Faeces are stored prior to defeacation. There is no secretion of enzymes and any digestion that takes place is carried out by microbes. All species have a large microbial population living in the large intestine, which is of particular importance to the hindgut fermenters. For this reason, hindgut fermenters have a more complex large intestine with highly specialised regions for fermentation.

The larynx is situated below where the pharynx divides into the trachea and the oesophagus. It is contained partly within the rami of the mandible and extends caudally into the neck. Vocal folds and vestibular folds are present in the larynx and due to this, it is more commonly known as the voice box.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"A new clinical trial suggests levosimendan could improve respiratory function in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. ALS is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disease that results in progressive weakness. Those affected by the disease typically die within three to four years of diagnosis due to respiratory failure commonly resulting from weakening of the diaphragm. Prior studies indicate that levosimendan – a calcium sensitizer on the market since 2000 for the treatment of acute worsening of severe heart failure – can also boost the force and efficiency with which the diaphragm contracts. This prompted researchers to investigate whether levosimendan is clinically beneficial to those with ALS. The phase 2 trial used a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral levosimendan in 66 patients with ALS..."
The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

The limbs develop from the lateral plate mesoderm. Limb development is highly conserved; in all land vertebrates there are only four limbs and they are always opposite each other with respect to the midline of the body. All vertebrate limbs have the same patterning of; stylopod - proximal part of the limb which produces the humerus or femur; zeugopod - intermediate part of the limb which produces the radius and ulna or tibia and fibula; autopod - distal part of the limb that produces the carpals and metacarpals or tarsals and metatarsals. Other animals also follow this limb pattern including the greatly modified bird's wing.

The liver (hepar) is an extremely important organ in the body of mammals and vertebrates as it provides functions essential for life. It is the largest internal organ and has numerous functions including production of bile and protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism. During foetal development, the liver has an important haemopoetic function, producing red and white blood cells from tissue between the hepatic cells and vessel walls.

Students learn the function of the liver and how biomedical engineers can use liver regeneration to help people. Students test the effects of toxic chemicals on a beef liver by adding hydrogen peroxide to various liver and salt solutions. They observe, record and graph their results.
