Health collage

Of all five of the pillars of health, I believe that I am the strongest at stress and social, and that I need to work on sleep the most. In regards to health, I want to learn how to get better sleep to be able to be more energized during the day.

Unit 1 Reflection

This unit was about cells, tissues, and their structures and functions. The theme was of Histology. I learned that tendons are connective tissue as well as bones, the more complicated the sugar the worse they taste, and how the inflammation system works with the mast cells. I still am a little confused in telling the differences of some of the tissues that look similar, but that's something that I can easily figure out and understand. In the next unit I feel like if I keep looking over what we learn, I will get a better understanding on the material.

Tissue Lab

What I learned from this lab is that even tissue cells of the same type can look different from each other depending on where they are located in the body. While looking at the structure of the cells and then looking at the lecture notes, you can make sense of why the cells are structured like that for their function in the body. The differences in the tissue types were their functions, where they are located in the body, how their cells look, and how their cells are structured together.
