The Physiological Concepts of Sleep: Implications for Nursing
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page discussion of the physiological processes associated with sleep. Defines sleep and delineates its critical cycles and the environmental, physiological, and psychological conditions which can interrupt those cycles. Emphasizes the need for nurses to allow for periods of uninterrupted sleep and to fully assess patients for sleep related problems. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

The Physiological Impacts of Dioxins
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page overview of the far reaching effects of dioxins such as chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (CDDs), chlorinated dibenzofurans (CDFs), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Notes that although some dioxins are produced naturally, many are produced as pollutants from industrial applications and such activities as the incineration of waste products. Outlines the impacts of these pollutants on human and animal physiology emphasizing the adverse impacts to reproduction, lipid metabolism, and the central nervous system. Bibliography lists 17 sources.

The Physiological Manifestations of Stress
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page overview of the physiological manifestations of stress. Includes specific information regarding the physiologies of three stress induced conditions: inflammatory bowel disease, migraine headaches, and memory loss due to impaired mossy fiber function. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

The Role of Potassium and Calcium in the Human Body
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses
the role of calcium and potassium in the body and the fact that the disruption of calcium
and potassium homeostasis certainly has an impact on cell function and the chemical
transfer of information required for optimal physical functioning. Bibliography lists 7
sources.

The Sensory Store: Memory
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper which discusses the sensory store as it
relates to short and long term memory. The paper hypothesizes that sensory store is large,
but retention is short term. A literature review is provided, as well as a proposed
methodology/research for investigating the hypothesis. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

The Systematics of Phylogenetic Inference: Applications in Evolutionary Biology
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page discussion of the importance of phylogenetic inference to our understanding of evolution. Suggests that it is through phylogenetic inference that we are able to see the hierarchical pattern of commonality which is exhibited by all forms of life. This hierarchy is not only visible through gross external anatomical features but also through more subtle features of an organism’s internal anatomy. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Throwing a piece of paper
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page creative essay that describes in great anatomical and physiological detail what happens when a teacher asks a student in the back of the room to crumple up a piece of paper and throw it to him. No sources cited.
