This document discusses physical, motor, and brain development in children and adolescents. It covers early childhood development including communication skills, learning colors and math, and early reading. Middle childhood sees enjoyment of practicing motor and learning skills. Adolescence brings puberty changes like growth spurts. Factors like nutrition, genetics, exercise, and sleep affect growth. Physical disabilities, sensory impairments, learning disabilities, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are also examined.

The Human Life Cycle
Birth to Old Age –
What is the human life cycle?
How does nutrition influence our life cycle?
How have our cultural changes in diet and nutrition influenced our development?
So far we have looked at ways in which human beings vary in their phenotypes. Another way that humans have evolved is in our life cycle. All organisms have a cycle of life and eventually die. In this lecture, we are going to consider how the developmental and maturation cycle for homo sapiens has changed over the course of our evolution. When we were in our human evolution section of this course, we watched as maturation rates slowed as species evolved towards Homo sapiens. We have the longest maturation period of any primate, but when we enter this period and get out of it has been altered.
1
Humans are a generalized species
Homo sapiens are very generalized and flexible, we also call this plastic.
We live, eat, and respond to a number of different environments and circumstances.
As environments have changed, our culture has evolved to make us more adaptive.
Drastic cultural changes over the last several decades will have profound impact on our biology.
For this lecture, think back a bit to how flexible and adaptive we are. We have the ability to adapt to many environments and we have. On top of that, we have altered our cultures quite a bit and this has impacted our evolution.
2
Does our original body and life cycle match our ancestors 300kya ago?
We are a species that evolved in subtropical Africa some time around 300,000 years ago.
Rapid agricultural and cultural changes have caused major divisions between generations; think how different your life is from your grandparents.
We have to consider both biological and cultural influence on how the cycle of life has changed.
Something we have to consider is that humans haven’t been around very long as a species. Since it takes us so long to reproduce, we haven’t been on the planet long enough for us to really have evolved in any major ways. What this means is that technically, most of us are still evolved to live in sub-tropical Africa, in small, kin-based families, who hunt and gather. Yet we live in a rapidly modernizing world. Is this rapid change affecting the way we develop and at the rate we do? Let’s consider some examples by looking at the normal life cycle.

Fetal growth
The image above gives you an idea of the course of development in utero. Notice that within the first couple weeks, your neural tube (thus your nervous system) is already developing.

By 16 days, neural tube has formed…
Most women do not necessarily know that they are pregnant as early as 2 weeks after conception. However, the neural tube and thus the nervous system is already forming. This means that nutrition is an absolutely integral part of daily life. If malnutrition or other nutrition issues affect the child this young, then the nervous system is already being harmed.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

3. Children from higher socio-economic groups
tend to be better nourished, and receive
better prenatal and postnatal care, variations
in height, weight and muscular dev’t are in
their favor.
4. EARLY CHILDHOOD
He will begin to communicate by
making noises and imitating
sounds.
Learning colors , basic math
concepts and socialization skills as
he plays with other persons.
Beginning to develop early reading
skills.
5. MIDDLE CHILDHOOD
Enjoys practicing both motor and learning skills
to improve his abilities.
GROSS MOTOR SKILLS
The large scale body movement skills such as
walking and running.
Boys develop these skills slightly faster than do
girls, except for skills involving balance &
precise movements.
Girls to tend to develop fine motor skills
slightly faster than boys.
6. Adolescence
The early signs of maturation is the adolescent
growth spurt or a noticeable increase in height
& weight.
Female: usually begins bet. ages 10 and 14 and
ends by age 18.
Male: usually begins bet. Ages 10 and 16, and
ends with 18.
7. MENARCHE- onset menstruation among girls
NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS- (wet dreams)
experience by the teen age boys a
harmless release of semen during sleep.
9. A. Early childhood
Brain continues develop after birth. It
doubles in weight after 6mos. at which
time it weighs about half that of the
adult brain.
10. B. Middle childhood
95% of brain growth is reached by the
time a child reaches the age of 9.
The demand of the growth processes
give way to changes in the brain
metabolism.
11. C. Adolescence.
Teenaged years , there are two major brain
growth spurts (1) occurring bet. ages 13 to
15. and the (2) beginning around age 17
and w/c continues into early childhood.
12. Environmental influences of
dev’t of the brain.
chronic malnutrition.
Bad environments.
Lateralization.
- The corpus collosum , grows , and matures
during the early childhood years at faster
rate than in any other period of life.
13. III. Factors affecting
development:
1. Maternal Nutrition.
2. Child Nutrition.
3. Early Nutrition.
14. Factors that Affect Growth
1. Genetic
The role of DNA- inherited trait.
- Use as a fairly accurate predictor
of height.
Predicting a child’s Height- the
height of a child’s parents in
inches can be used to predict
height as an adult.
15. Delayed Growth Patterns- the
problem maybe delayed born aged.
-Constitutional growth delay.
Other factors affecting growth- a
deficiency of growth hormones.
16. 2. Nutrition.
-contributes to good health
throughout all phases in life.
Carbohydrates- are the preferred
source of energy for the body.
Protein- important for appropriate
growth as well as immune function
and mentainance of muscle.
17. Healthy Fats- is often given a bad rap.
Breakfast- is the most important meal of
the day.
Dairy- is an essential mineral for bone
development.
B vitamins
18. 3. Medical condition- kids and teens
grow and go through puberty at
different times.
22. IV. Exceptional Development:
A. PHYSICAL DISABILITIES..
The physically handicapped have impairments that are temporary
or permanent such as: paralysis, stiffness or lack of motor
coordination of bones, muscles or joints so that they need special
equipment or help in moving about
Crippling disabilities include the following:
Impairment of the bone and muscle systems which affects
mobility and manual dexterity difficult and impossible as in the
case of the amputees and those with severe fractures;
Impairment of the nerve and muscle systems making mobility
awkward and uncoordinated as in cerebral palsy; and
Deformities or absence of body organs and systems necessary for
mobility like in the case of the club-foot and paraplegics.
It is evident that growth is affected by physical disabilities like
orthopedic handicaps, disfunction of the neuro-muscular system ,
and congenital deformities. These are contributory factors in the
making of the group of exceptional children called the crippled.
23. Causes of Handicaps
A number of factors have been identified as cause of
crippling handicaps, impairments, and disabilities.
These are :
24. 1. Prenatal factors . These are factors that affect
normal development before and after conception
virtually rasting up to the first trimester or the third
trimester of life . Specially these include the following:
A. Genetic or chromosomal aberrations. This results
from blood incompatibility of the husband and wife.
There is a transfer of defective genes from parent to
offspring.
B. Prematurity. Birth of the fetus is usually earlier than
the ninth month of pregnancy.
C. Infection. This is caused by bacteria or virus on the
fetus in the womb of the mother, the germs usually
come from highly communicable diseases like rubella
and veneral diseases. The neonatal sepsis is caused by
infection either directly from the mother or the
outside environment like poorly sanitized delivery
room, infected hospital gadgets, and many others.
25. D. Malnutritions. Insufficient intake of food nutrients
necessary to sustain growth and development of the fetus and
the mother.
E.Irradiation. Pertains to the exposure of the pregnant mother
to radioactive elements like x-ray. Exposure of the mother also
affects the fetus.
26. F. Metabolic disturbances. Inability of
the mother or the fetus to make use of
food intake.
G. Drug abuse. Entry of large quantities
of medicines into the body thus
effecting the fetus. Thalidomide used by
mothers has affected thousands of
babies who were born without limbs
and other extremities
27. 2. Perinatal factors. These are factors causing
crippling conditions during the period of birth.
a .birth injury. These are injuries suffered by the
newborn baby. Injury to the spine will cause
paralysis kernicterus.
b. difficult labor. Hard and prolonged labor
before the actual birth which interrupts the
oxygen intake of the mother to uterus.
c. hemorrhage. Profuse bleeding of the mother
during birth which might be caused by damage
of the uterus.
28. 3. Postnatal factors. These are factors
causing crippling conditions after birth.
a. infections. These are caused by illness like
diphtheria, typhoid, meningitis,
encephalomyclitis, and rickets in infants.
b. tumor and abscess in the brain. They
destroy the brain cells connected with
movement thus impairing mobility.
c. fractures and dislocations. These are
destructions of mobility organs either
through falls and other accidents causing
bone fractures or dislocation.
29. d. tuberculosis of the bones. TB germs are likely to
attack the bones of the very young causing crippling
conditions.
e. cerebrovascular injuries. These are injuries in the
head region enough to cause brain damage.
f. post-seizure or post-surgical complications. These
are convulsions after the delivery of the baby which
cause crippling conditions.
g. arthritis, rheumatism. These are diseases affecting
the spinal column and muscles of locomotion at the
back.
30. B. SENSORY IMPAIREMENTS
1. Visual impairement.
2. Blindness is the inability of the
person to see anything.
31. CAUSES OF DEAFNESS:
1. Prenatal causes:
a. Toxic conditions.
b. Viral causes
c. Congenital defects
32. 2. Perinatal causes.
a. Injury sustained during delivery.
b. Anoxia or lack of oxygen due to
prolonged labor.
c. Heavy sedation due to overdose of
anesthesia in twilight deliveries.
d. Blockage of the infant’s respiratory
passage.
33. 3. Postnatal causes.
a. Diseases , ailments and ther
conditions.
b. Accidents/trauma falls, head
bumps , overexposure to high
frequency sounds and extremely
loud explosions.
34. 4. Other causes.
a. heredity.
b. Prematurity.
c. Malnutrition.
d. Rh factor- blood incompatibility of
parents.
e. Overdosage of medecine.
35. Classification of Hearing
Impaired Children.
1. Acc. to age at onset of deafness.
a. Congenitally deaf
b. Adventitiously deaf.
36. 2. acc. to language development.
a. Prelingually deaf
b. Postilingual deaf
37. 3. Acc. to place of impairement.
a. Conductive hearing loss.
b. Sensory neutral hearing loss.
c. Mixed hearing loss.
38. 4. acc. to degree of hearing loss.
a. slight.
b. Mild .
c. Moderate .
d. Severe .
e. Profound.
39. C. Learning Disabilities.
The inability to listen well, process
information readily, and inability to talk,
read, write, spell, and even add numbers.
Also referred to as perceptual handicaps,
brain injury, brain dysfunction and the like.
41. D. Attention Deficit Hyperacivity Disorder
(ADHD)
Refers to a chronic biobehavioral that
initially manifests in childhood & is
characterized by hyperactivity, impulsivity,
and or inattention.
42. Symptoms:
Inattention:
Fails to give close attention to details
or makes careless mistakes in
schoolwork.
Difficulty sustaining attention in tasks
or play activities.
Often forgetful in daily activities.
44. Impulsivity:
Often blurts out answers before
questions have been completed
Often has difficulty awaiting in
his/her turn
Often interrupts or intrudes on
others
45. 3 Principles of behavior therapy are:
1. Set specific goals.
2. Provide rewards & consenquences.
3. Keep using the rewards and
consequences.
