Elephants are large mammals of the family Elephantidae with two species, African and Asian. They live in herds with a complex social structure. Elephants can live over 60 years in the wild or up to 80 years in captivity. Babies must learn how to use their trunks, a distinctive feature of elephants.
1. The document discusses the physiological effects of low oxygen levels at high altitudes, acceleratory forces during aviation, and weightlessness in space.
2. It explains how oxygen levels, air pressure, and blood oxygen saturation decrease with increasing altitude. The body adapts to high altitudes over time through increased ventilation, blood cell production, and tissue oxygen use.
3. Acceleratory forces during take-off and landing can exceed 9Gs and special suits and seating positions are used to withstand these forces. Weightlessness in space removes gravity effects and causes fluid shifts, muscle loss, bone loss, and other problems if missions are prolonged.
This document discusses various respiratory disturbances and their causes. It covers abnormal respiratory patterns such as tachypnea, apnea, and dyspnea. One pattern discussed in detail is Cheyne-Stokes breathing, which involves alternating periods of respiratory activity and apnea. Causes of disturbances include issues related to respiratory gases like hypoxia, hypercapnia, and asphyxia. Specific conditions addressed include pneumonia, asthma, and tuberculosis. The document provides details on symptoms, diagnostic criteria and treatment approaches for these respiratory conditions.

Resilient Colors: Program Management Final PresentationMiriamBennett
This document outlines a proposed program called Resilient Colors to address homelessness among LGBTQ youth in Baltimore City. It begins by providing statistics on LGBTQ homeless youth nationally and in Baltimore City, noting an estimated 163 homeless LGBTQ youth locally. It then describes the risks LGBTQ homeless youth face and the services the program would offer, such as housing, counseling, career training, and education support. The goals are to reduce homelessness, equip youth to live independently, increase family reunification, and boost financial stability. Desired outcomes include meeting youths' immediate needs and safety, improving relationships, education, career skills, and independence through employment.
The document summarizes the student's experiences in their SERP 197B Exhibition Assessment course. It highlights three positive experiences: 1) A presentation they did on someone significant to their service site that inspired future opportunities in education. 2) Participating in Cyclovia Tucson and seeing how it brought the community together. 3) Realizing the class was not a "blow off" class and helped inspire them to improve as a teacher through new lessons incorporating service learning. The student also notes how service learning has changed their views on incorporating subjects into service and their plans to work with education non-profits.
This document summarizes the author's experience with service learning over the course of a semester. The author learned about how service learning benefits all parties involved through presentations on topics like the Peace Corps. A task analysis project taught the importance of detailed instructions and universal design. For a service project, the author helped students transitioning to college by building confidence, and plans to continue the project while speaking to high school students and becoming involved in her community to share her experiences.

1. Exercise increases energy expenditure through increased fuel consumption and oxygen usage, reflected by higher oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production.
2. Increased oxygen delivery and carbon dioxide removal in tissues during exercise is achieved through cardiovascular and respiratory responses.
3. Types of exercise include static, which involves constant muscle tension, and dynamic, which involves rhythmic contraction and relaxation with changing muscle length. Aerobic exercise uses oxygen and fuels stored in muscles, while anaerobic exercise occurs without oxygen, using stored creatine phosphate and glycogen.
The document discusses gas diffusion through the respiratory membrane. It describes how oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse down their partial pressure gradients from areas of high concentration to low concentration. Several factors affect the rate of diffusion, including membrane thickness, surface area, the diffusion coefficients of the gases, and the partial pressure differences across the membrane. Optimal gas exchange occurs when ventilation and blood flow are well matched in the lungs.
The document provides test tips for the PTE Academic exam. It begins with general tips like using proper punctuation and answering the question asked.

Invisible Disease
PRESS RELEASE: 21 June 2024 / Lenawee County
When I moved my family to Clinton Village in 2021, I had no idea how much our lives would change. I was drawn in by the cute Victorian homes, and the historical presence of the rural community. Little did I know that the reality of a family like mine moving into the community would have so many immediate negative repercussions. Despite my love of our new home and the idealism of a country lifestyle, only a few people wanted us to share in their same happiness. Life over the past couple of years has changed drastically.
We first came to Michigan to take care of my then nine-year-old son Ben. Ben was diagnosed with incurable brain cancer at the age of 2. He has had three reocurrences and one aneurysm during that time. In 2020, he had his last reocurrence which resulted in seven weeks of gamma knife radiation treatment to a little over a quarter of his brain in the front left parietal lobe. The remaining scar tissue affects various aspects of the brain. He also has 36 staples, bolts, and plates in his brain and parts that are keeping his skull together.
Ben looks like a regular boy. His disease is what we call invisible because to look at him, you would never know he has brain trauma. He is the epitome of a cancer warrior! I thought Clinton Village was perfect for us. The motto is exactly what I’ve always said about Raising Ben. “It takes a Village.”
My naivete was shattered because of the constant turmoil we’ve encountered with the Clinton school system, The Village Inc. and the local police. The problems started immediately after living in the village for only a few weeks. The police became a consistent presence at our front door, prompted by our neighbors who felt we needed formal reprimands for a variety of reasons which included having a dangerous carport, owning a loud pocket dirt bike, and complaints that our front and backyard lawns were apparently too long. These are just a few of the supposed violations that were cited by our neighbors and that compelled them to report us to The Village headquarters and/or the police department.
During this time, we as a family tried to be good neighbors, were always friendly, smiled, said hello, and continued to offer baked goods whenever possible. They weren’t having it!
The Clinton elementary school held an IEP meeting, upon my request, to help Ben in school when we arrived in 2021. Ben had a few minor needs that required attention such as additional breaks during class time to give his over-stimulated brain a rest, extra help on assignments, assistance from a paraprofessional a few hours a day for redirecting and fine motor skill attention, as well as ADHD and non grand mal seizures (Epilepsy). The control factor for the implementation of Ben’s IEP is ongoing. He needs brakes when he feels overwhelmed, and that time cannot be scheduled.
