Brief Details on One Major Disease or Disorder

Answer 1

1. Integumentary system: The integumentary system is an organ system consisting of the skin, hair, nails, and exocrine glands. The skin and its appendages act to protect the body from various kinds of damage, such as loss of water or damages from outside.

major- skin
minor- hair, nails, sweat glands, sabucbaus glands

2. skeletal system: The skeletal system is the body system composed of bones, cartilages, ligaments and other tissues that perform essential functions for the human body. Bone tissue, or osseous tissue, is a hard, dense connective tissue that forms most of the adult skeleton, the internal support structure of the body.

major-N/A
minor- ligament, tendons, cartilage

3. Muscular system:The muscular system is an organ system consisting of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscles. It permits movement of the body, maintains posture and circulates blood throughout the body.

major- muscles
minor- tendons, fascia

4. Nervous system: The nervous system is the part of an animal that coordinates its actions by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body. The nervous system detects environmental changes that impact the body, then works in tandem with the endocrine system to respond to such events.

major- brain
minor- peripheral nerves, meninges

5. cardiovascular system: The circulatory system is a network consisting of blood, blood vessels, and the heart. This network supplies tissues in the body with oxygen and other nutrients, transports hormones, and removes unnecessary waste products.

major- heart
minor- arteries, veins, capelins

6. Lymphatic system: The lymphatic system is part of the vascular system and an important part of the immune system, comprising a large network of lymphatic vessels that carry a clear fluid called lymph directionally towards the heart.

major- lymph odes, spleen
minor- lymphatic vessels, lymph

7. respiratory system: The respiratory system is a biological system consisting of specific organs and structures used for gas exchange in animals and plants.

major- lungs
minor- trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli

8. Digestive system: The human digestive system consists of the gastrointestinal tract plus the accessory organs of digestion. Digestion involves the breakdown of food into smaller and smaller components, until they can be absorbed and assimilated into the body.

major- stomach, small intestines
minor- large intestine, esophagus, teeth, liver

9. urinary system: The urinary system, also known as the renal system or urinary tract, consists of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and the urethra. The purpose of the urinary system is to eliminate waste from the body, regulate blood volume and blood pressure, control levels of electrolytes and metabolites, and regulate blood pH.

major-kidney
minor- ureters, urethra, urinary bladders

10. reproductive system: The reproductive system or genital system is asystem of sex organs within an organism which work together for the purpose of sexual reproduction.

major- gonads(ovaries and testis)
minor- penis, vagina, fallopian tubes, uterus, vasdeverince

Major disease: cooronary heart disease, stroke, lower respiratory infection, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, cirrhosis, tuberculosis, and diarrheal disease.

Tuberculosis: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that usually affects the lungs. TB affects all age groups and all parts of the world. The bacteria that cause tuberculosis are spread from one person to another through tiny droplets released into the air via coughs and sneezes.The symptoms of TB disease include:

• feeling sick or weak
• loss of appetite and weight loss
• chills, fever, and night sweats
• a severe cough that lasts for 3 weeks or more
• chest pain

Diagnosis: The most common diagnostic test for TB is a skin test where a small injection of PPD tuberculin, an extract of the TB bacterium, is made just below the inside forearm. The injection site should be checked after 2-3 days, and, if a hard, red bump has swollen up to a specific size, then it is likely that TB is present.

Treatment: People with latent TB may need just one kind of TB antibiotics, whereas people with active TB (particularly MDR-TB) will often require a prescription of multiple drugs.
