I am currently studying my advanced higher biology and part of this is a large project. i have applied to study medicine at uni and i want something that is related to humans and if possible partly medically related. I was thinking about something to do with blood pressure or blood glucose levels. It has to be fairly in-depth to get a decent grade. Any ideas of what i could do would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

first: how is the seasonal shift in pressure belts and global winds related to the movement of the overhead noon sun throughout the year?
second: why is high pressure associated with land in the winter months, and low pressure is more common over land in the summer? i know this is true, but i don’t understand why

Ok so, I recently asked a question about should I be worried with gaining weight and I recieved some great advice however a friend of mine told me that I should cut down on the greasy foods and starch…I have family history for high blood pressure so I am working on cutting back with salt and greasy foods however I love starch how much is too much for me? Right now im eating some rice brocili and cheese on some potato bread now I know yall like eww wtf lol but I dont know I really like it. My question is…should I cut back? This thanksgiving I may out some mash potato’s,turkey rice and macoroni on some bread and just smash however my friend suggests that I should lay low on the starch I dont see anything wrong with it…Is it a health issue?? I know I asked alot of questions but hopefully someone can give me some advice oh btw Im 19 and weigh 115-120 I love to eat but never can get higher than 120 lbs
have mercy on me for the spelling and grammer errors see what starch is doing to me lol

They are virtually free, you can feel the pressure build by squeezing, you can use larger [1 and 2 liter] bottles which are also resealable, and they withstand much higher pressures than glass bottles.
Plastic bottles can be cleaned with steaming hot water and sterilized with a very mild bleach solution so long as they are well rinsed and allowed time to evaporate any residual clorox smell.

My systolic blood pressure is relatively high, but not really high. However, I get diastolic in the 90’s or in the 100’s every time I take my blood pressure. I am overweight, but even still at only 22 I would have that of BP only because of my weight? What are possible causes for this?

My grandfather just recently had a slow heart attack due to high cholesterol (there was a 100% blockage in an artery) the doctors operated on him and open up the closed artery. (he also has high blood pressure) In less than 1 month we are planning on a family trip to Chile. Do you think its ok for him to travel with us With the high altitudes and change of climate and seasons.?

I graduated from a private college back in 2008, and earned my BA in Spanish secondary education, SummaCumLaude. I must admit, although I got my license to teach it, my Spanish isn’t the best, although native speakers can generally understand me and I can understand them most of the time. But I try my best, and that’s all I can do right now.

Anyhow, I recently got a job working in a county public school system. My job is to help a student who is a native Spanish speaker to learn English. She just came to America about half a year ago, and has only had to use English for the past month or so. She has a good disposition, and although she’s not the most studious student, she’s nice and is very polite overall, which makes working with her a breeze.

She is taking many regular courses that a high school student would have to take, such as world history, science, math, English, etc. I sit with her during some of her classes in order to help her understand what she is doing, while other times I take her out of some classes during the week in order to help her learn crucial English grammar and speaking skills. Her other teachers know this, and are very aware of her limitations.

But honestly it feels like the teachers at this school absolutely hate me for being there, and I really don’t get the reason why! They make hardly any accommodations for her temporary limitations with the English language, and they treat me like a third wheel who is interfering with their otherwise perfect little world.

When I sit down in the teachers’ lounge during lunch, none of them (all women) will ever talk with me, and they give me this wierd, almost psychotic look of disdain. Even most of the men are acting like the stuck-up women teachers, and I’m quite certain that I’m the subject of countless negative gossip sessions.

I’ve never felt so unwelcomed in a workplace in my entire life (really), and this has put a great deal of stress on me. I stopped substitute teaching in order to take on this part-time position; however, even though I’m making twice the money and working half the hours that I was, I am miserable. If it weren’t for the fact that this student really needed help in nearly all-white, non-hispanic school, I probably would have left by now.

Why am I being treated like this, when all I am trying to do is to help a young Spanish-speaking student become successful academically and socially?

My blood pressure must be up at least 20 points this week. Your advice is gladly welcomed.

Thank you, and God bless.

im in high school and i stutter. i have blocks, and its like literally impossible to get out of when im in class. i go to speech therapy, but i feel like my tools dont work when im under pressure. my teachers keep calling on my, and i take forever to answer, and kids laugh. my blocks also make me block in the middle of words, and it makes me feel and sound like im stupid. please help!!

well i am 38 weeks 2moro but my OB is inducing me next thursday which i will be pretty much 39 weeks he is inducing me due to high blood pressure and GB. but i am really worried about being induced. If it is only a week until my due date cant they let nature take its course. my boyfriend and my mom dont agree with me being induced which i was all for it but now i am really worried about being induced from what i have read on the internet. could someone tell me who has personally been induced on how it went? and how u and the baby were after.

My son is a month old and is a formula fed baby (for my personal reasons) He has been screaming at the same time for the past two days for a couple of hours. I think he has colic. He saw the doctor today and is in perfect health and growing appropriately and she handed me these papers for colic. He has really bad gas and she told me to change his formula from the Enfamil Lipil to the Nestle Good Smart and to continue to give him gripe water because the Mylicon drops seem to not help. So I wanted to know what I can do to soothe my son in some ways besides just strapping him in the car seat and driving him around for an hour to get him to calm down. I just don’t feel too nurturing when I do that and can he cry more than three days a week? I know the rule of three. More than three hours, more than three days and more than three weeks. But for those of you with experience with a colicky baby can he cry more than three days a week? And if you have a colicky baby in an apartment how do your neighbors cope with your crying baby? I am waiting on my apartment to be ready and I just wanted to know.

ALL INFORMATION IS HELPFUL. I am just thankful I have my mother to help me while my husband is at work. I joke saying he gets it easy because he has a break from him crying. Because lately he starts crying at 12pm and then stops when he gets tired (I think it was all that gas he had and the discomfort from the pressure) but he has been crying for the past two nights and last Saturday too. Help! I am a new mother and a little stressed. I started you thinking it was something I did, but I figure he just has my temperament. I can come up really high and come down out of no where.

Thanks for all your help. I appreciate it.
