Joseph Case Study

Case cartoon Chapter 3 Case Study Chapter 3, Josephs Story A-H A. ) List Josephs essay factors and create a brief summary of the information you have so far. Identify how his risk factors would affect boothular process. * The risk factors that Joseph had were smoking, lack of exercise, excessive weight gain, stressing, fatty foods, and a family history of vascular disease. Joseph is middle age tweed male who has suffered a heart and soul attack. This may have been caused by him not taking c are of his tree trunk properly. Joseph is already at high risk for heart disease due to a family history if vascular disease.He has similarly been stressing, an increase in weight, not exercising, and un good eating. These things could all play a role in how his heart is unnatural and bleeding. His cellular maneuvers are being affected because there is no type O menstruation throughout the body getting to the heart, cells, organelles, or membranes that keep the body functioning properl y. B. ) Assuming Joseph heart has stopped, what cellular process and membrane functions are going to be affected by the loss of group O, blood glucose, and gasconade removal? If Josephs heart stopped, the cellular process and membrane functions that would be affected are the aerophilic process and the mitochondria. Oxygen and glucose are used in glycolysis which is reacted in the mitochondria where adenosine triphosphate is produced. Carbon dioxide is the waste crossing in this process and needs to be released. With oxygen and glucose not being present ATP cannot be produced and blow dioxide cannot be released out the body. Therefor the cells are beginning to rapidly dice and the pumps are begging to shut down.Without the of import energy source for all cells the body cannot function properly. C. ) Which intracellular organelles have membranes as break of their structures? How would the breakdown of the membranes of these structures affect the function of Josephs heart cells ? * The intracellular organelles that have membranes as part of their structures are the Mitochondria which has two membranes, and the ER, Golgi which only have one, and the ribosomes do not have its own membrane exactly it attaches to them.Breaking down the mitochondria would affect Joseph heart because lysosome enzymes which are bound within the vesicles will digest the plasma membranes and the membranes of the opposite organelles. D. ) Two important pieces of information- the instructions Josephs body needs to repair itself and his predisposition for vascular disease- are both contained within the cell on what structures? Joseph body is going to need its DNA to replicate itself, and also the growth and reproduction of his cells is going to be found on the Cytosol. E. Josephs heart attack has caused the function of his cells to change. What types of proteins in the cell membrane were involved in the homeostatic imbalances of his heart cells? * The type of proteins in the cell m embrane that was involved in homeostatic imbalance of his heart cells were ATP. There was no ATP, so it affected the pumps in the membrane. The calcium levels rose, and it caused proteases to spill into the interior of the cell, attacking the cytoskeleton. This caused the lysosome enzymes to digest the plasma membranes and membranes of the organelles. F. Why was reestablishing oxygen hang up to Josephs body so important? What processes would be affected by the lack of oxygen? * Reestablishing oxygen flow to Josephs body was important because the body was not functioning properly without oxygen and ATP which every living organelle and cells in the body needs. There are also major organs that need oxygen flowing to them such as the brain, heart, and lungs which require oxygen to maintain functioning. G. ) Consider one time again Josephs health history and risk factors. What could you suggest to Joseph to reduce his risk for another heart attack? I would suggest that Joseph take care of himself more by exercising more, maintaining a healthy diet, staying stress free, and looking into his family history of vascular disease and taking his health more serious. H. ) Explain wherefore Josephs heart failed based on what you have learned so far about the function of cells in the human body? * Joseph was living an unhealthy life style which consists of unhealthy eating, lack of exercising, smoking, with a family history of vascular disease I think that Joseph heart failed because his body could no longer function properly.Joseph heart was no longer receiving oxygen which made the cells work rapidly to try and give oxygen flow to the heart. The body was deprived of oxygen, glucose, and could not remove waste. There was no oxygen so the carbon dioxide levels in the body began to rise due to not being released, and caused a low pH. The cells and membranes lacked ATP the main source of energy in cells. The mitochondria could not produce ATP because there was no oxygen, so the cells began to die and the membrane pumps began to shut down. There was no oxygen flowing throughout the body which killed the cells and they were not able-bodied to be reproduced.
