Written by Mohd. Hamim Rajikin, knowledge about the human
body is not only interesting but also important as it is necessary
to understand various diseases. Many people now understand
the complexities outside of themselves but many do not know
how they themselves work. By knowing how complex the human
body is as a biological engine, we will certainly appreciate the
creator’s greatness. Books that contain basic information about
the functioning of human organs are written in simple language
styles and the use of minimal scientific terms. Every description
of an organ is accompanied by a diagram. As such, this book is
appropriate for general reading, and those who do not have basic
science at secondary level can understand it. This book will also
be used as an additional reading book for those who are on preuniversity
courses, physiotherapists, therapists, nursing and other
paramedics.
Abdomen is a body space located between the thorax and the
pelvis. A muscle layer called the diaphragm separates the chest
from the abdomen. Abdomen contains organs that play a role in
digestion and excretion. These organs include gaster, intestine,
kidneys, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, appendix and bladder.
In the abdomen, it also contains ovaries and uterus. All these organs
mentioned will be explained in the relevant titles in this book. The
adrenal glands are located on both kidneys, approximately as much
as fingertip and weighing only 5 g. But the task is great as it produces
about 30-50 steroid compounds, which are similar hormones that
can only be constructed by the vast expanse of chemical plants.
However, the most important hormone is cortisol, a glucocorticoid
and aldosterone, a mineralocorticoid. The release of cortisol is
controlled by the adrenocorticotrophic hormone from the pituitary.
Cortisol is important to hold or control inflammation in the body.
Aldosteron also regulates the balance of salt in the body. Although
these substances are synthesized in small amounts of about 30
mg a day it plays an important role in human life. If this gland is
discarded, a person will experience low blood pressure and can die
within a day or two, unless it is given an artificial mineralocorticoid
hormone. Instead, if the gland is too active during the child’s stage,
adult nature; his voice became a jerk, his beard and his shoulders
were bore and his sex organs grew up in adults. Apart from that,
the long bones of the bones are supposed to remain open and soft
until the perfect maturity is reached, closing quickly, making the
growth stunted.
The adrenal glands are made up of two layers. The outer layer
is the cortex and the inner layer is known as the medulla. All the
hormones described above are found in the cortex. The adrenal
part has a distinctive feature; it is a hotline to the brain. If someone
is emotionally, for example, in fear, medula gets information
instantly. As a result, two hormones, adrenaline and noradrenaline
are released into the bloodstream. Both of these hormones can
provide a person with an opponent or run activity. In addition his
heart also releases sugar into blood circulation. These hormones
cause the blood vessels to construct so that the person is pale while
the blood is heavily streamed to the muscles, especially in the limbs
to allow the members to work. The person’s heart rate increases
and his blood pressure increases. Digestion of food at this time
becomes sluggish because the person does not have to think about
food during this emergency. All these changes take place in just a
few seconds and this makes the person either run faster or jumps
up and lifts things that are heavier than normal, or any activity that
is appropriate to the form of anxiety it encounters. The appendix is
a dead-end, 7-12cm long, located on the right side of the abdomen.
The appendix is a branch of sekum which ends of the dead, while
the sekum is part of the colon to the colon. The appendicitis
function is unknown, but in case of infection or inflammation it has
appendicitis.
