Instructions: Consider this prompt: “What experiences, attitudes, and perspectives do you bring when considering environmental science issues?” In this Checkpoint, outline your thinking and discuss your ideas with a small group. Consider how you can use key terms and ideas in environmental science as well as details about your experiences in order to describe your environmental outlook.

 

Before Your Discussion

 

Prepare Notes

 

Outline your response to the prompt in the box below. Then, write a few questions to ask your peers to better understand their environmental outlooks.

 

Set Goals

 

As you get ready for the discussion, set at least two specific goals for your participation during the discussion. Use the Contributing to Evidence-based Discussions and the Norms/Active Listening rubrics in the Platform to inform your goals.

 

Sample Goals:

I need a 5 paragraph lab report completed with this information. Asap.

After having studied Circulation/Respiration and Digestion, it will be very important for us to look at and put into practice one important aspect of the thread that ties these three aspects in terms of one of the elements known as the DIVERSITY OF MICROBES.

=>> > As you prepare to complete this lab and ready to write your final report, ensure that you are able to answer the following questions and incorporate your answers/responses in the specific sections of your written lab report

(1) What is aseptic technique?

(2) What are microbes?

(3) What media is being used in the lab?

(4) What inoculum is used in the lab?

(5) Why was a control used for this experiment?

(6) How will you store your agar plates?

First paragraph Must include background information for the lab, objective (s) of the lab relation to the class materials.

Second paragraph is about Relevant materials and methods used, Steps used to carry out the lab, Measurements taken

Third paragraph must have Record of all the results obtained, Tables, graphs, pictures, drawings, Other observations relevant to the label exercise.

Fourth paragraph must Explanation of all results in relation to the objective of the lab, Interpretation of the data lab according to the data collected or observations make or taken during the lab.

Fifth paragraph must be a Summary of your findings and the interpretations of the data in relation to the objectives or aim of the lab and relationship to the class topic, etc. Recommendations, if any.

John, a healthy twenty-eight year old electrical engineer, was driving home from work one evening when he experienced sudden stabbing pain in his right pectoral and right lateral axillary regions. He began to feel out of breath and both his respiratory rate and heart rate increased dramatically. As luck would have it, John passed a hospital each day on his way home and was able to get himself to the hospital’s emergency room.

The emergency room physician listened to John's breathing with a stethoscope and requested blood gas analysis and a chest x-ray. John answered a few of the doctor's questions. The doctor noted that John had no history of respiratory problems but was a heavy smoker.

After viewing the chest radiograph, the doctor informed John that he had experienced a spontaneous pneumothorax, or what is commonly called a collapsed lung. The doctor explained that a hole had opened in John's right lung and that this hole had allowed air to leak into the cavity surrounding the lung.

Then, as a result of the lung's own elastic nature, the lung had collapsed. The doctor said he could not be certain of the cause of the pneumothorax, but smoking cigarettes had certainly increased the likelihood of it happening. He told John he was fortunate the pneumothorax was small, which meant that relatively little air had escaped from the lung into the surrounding cavity, and it should heal on its own.

He instructed John to quit smoking, avoid high altitudes, flying in non-pressurized aircraft, and scuba diving. He also had John make an appointment for a re-check and another chest x-ray.

Case Background

The pneumothorax decreases the efficiency of the respiratory system, which in turn results in decreased blood oxygen concentration, increased respiratory rate, and increased heart rate. If the pneumothorax is small, the air that escapes into the pleural cavity can be reabsorbed into the lung once the opening has sealed shut. If the pneumothorax is large, a needle or chest tube may have to be inserted into the pleural cavity to draw the air out and allow for the re-expansion of the lung.

Questions

1.       Define the following terms and explain how they may have been affected by John’s spontaneous pneumothorax.

a.       Visceral pleura

b.       Parietal pleura

c.       Pleural cavity

2.       As a result of a pneumothorax, the lung tissues recoil, and the lung collapses. Explain how recoil and collapse are prevented in a healthy lung?

3.       How does elastic recoil function in breathing?

4.       Why was John instructed to avoid high altitudes and flying in non-pressurized aircraft?
