Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese method to relieve pain and treat diseases by
inserting needles into various parts of the body. It stimulates the nerves in the
skin and muscles, and increases the bodys release of natural painkillers. It has
been used in Asia for over 2,000 years, but interest in it in the Western world
really only began in the 1970s. The use of acupuncture alongside conventional
Western medicine is increasing and in the U.K. , for example, acupuncture is now
available in many hospitals clinics.

The human heart is divided into four chambers, each of which serves its own
function in the cycle of pumping blood. The atria are the thin-walled upper
chambers to gather blood as it flows from the vein between heartbeats. The
ventricles are the thick-walled lower chambers that receive blood from the atria
and push it into the arteries with each contraction of the heart. The left atrium
and ventricle work separately from those on the right. The roles of the chambers
on the right side of the heart is to receive oxygen-depleted blood from there the
body tissues and send it on to the lungs; the chambers on the left side of the
heart then receive the oxygen-enriched blood from the lungs and send it back
out to the body tissues.

Hay fever is a seasonal allergy to pollens; the term hay fever however, is a less
than adequate since an attack of this allergy does not incur fever and since such
an attack can be brought on by sources other than hay-producing grasses. Hay
fever is generally cause by air-borne pollens, particularly ragweed pollen. The
amount of the pollen in the air is largely dependent on geographical location,
weather, and season.
In the eastern section of the US, for example, there are generally three periods
when pollen from various sources can cause intense hay fever suffering: in the
springtime months of March and April when pollen from trees is prevalent in the
summertime of June and July when grass pollen fills the air and at the end of
August when ragweed pollen is at its most concentrated levels.

The next hormone is epinephrine, or adrenaline. This hormone is a natural

secretion of the adrenaline glands in the human body. Its primary function in the
human body is to assist the body in the coping with sudden surges of stress.
When a person unexpectedly finds himself in a stressful situation filled with fear
or anger, a large amount of epinephrine is released into the blood and the body
responds with an increased heartbeat, higher blood pressure, and conversion of
glycogen into glucose for energy to enable the body to deal with stress.
It is possible to extract epinephrine from the adrenaline glands of animals or to
synthesize it chemically in order to put it to further use. It is used in the

the large air passages leading into the lungs. It is also used in cases of severe

Complete the table below that shows the name of the organ and its
parts and functions
The skin is the outermost organ of the body and limit the external environment.
Area of skin in adults is about 1.5 m2 and weight abaut 15 % of the overall
weight. Skin consists of three main parts, namely epidermis, dermis, and
hypodermis. Epidermis consists of stratum corneum which is rich in keratin,
stratum lucidum, stratumgranulosum, rich keratohialin, stratum spinosum and
stratum basal mitotic. Dermis is composed of supporting fibers including collagen
and elastin, while the hypodermis is composed of fat cells, the tip of peripheral
nerves, blood vessels and lymph vessel. The skin has many functions, which are
useful in maintaining body homeostasis. These functions can be grouped into the
function of protection, absorption, excretion, perception, body temperature
regulation (thermoregulation), and the formation of vitamin D.
