Topic 1
Systems coordination of the human body, performs cooperatively in the processing of data that that is obtained from Stimuli in order to generate respective responses. Human body systems refers to the collective functional unit that is created by different organs where they work in the comprehensive coordination with each other (Scott & Fong, 2017). Organs may not normally work on sole basis since there are several needs of each organ that is required to be fulfilled and one organ cannot fully meet the needs. This implies that all the human body’s organs are necessitated to perform their responsibilities in ways that the organs systems functioning is fully accomplished. Human body systems coordination occurs amid 12 major systems which includes endocrine, digestive, respiratory, skeletal, nervous, circulatory, immune, muscular, lymphatic, urinary , cardio vascular, reproductive and integumentary system (Scott & Fong, 2017).
Coordination is achieved where organs in different systems within the body are involved in an interaction thus offering complementation to the functions of one another. The coordination of different systems organs occurs in order to create a steady surrounding within the whole body (Scott & Fong, 2017). For instance, the endocrine and the nervous system interact within the body in the integration of all activities. For instance in a stressful situation the heart rate rises due to the stimulation of Sympathetic, the pupil tends to dilate, the hair Pilli muscle erects, perspiration stimulates thus increasing the air passage in the facilitation of breathing. In this scenario the body organs are in coordination so that body stress can be handled adequately (Scott & Fong, 2017).

An improved understanding of the working of the human brain would result in improved treatment of brain injuries, psychiatric disorders, neurologic, development, function, aging and technological development. Every development and particularly those that are aimed at drawing innovative or improved solutions requires adequate understanding of the subject and the issue itself. The medical field is one that is characterized with complex issues due to the complexity of body organs functioning whose k knowledge is not well grounded. Creativity can only be attained with increased knowledge on how the brain functions and the necessary conditions for a normal functions which would help in addressing issues that are related to psychiatric disorders. Understanding the brain’s functioning has the capability of changing and improving numerous human health functions since most of the coordination and functioning is coordinated by the brain (NIH, 2013).
The brain initiative should be pursued. Neurological disorders and particularly Alzheimer’s is one of the brain disorder that may highly acquire maximum benefits from increased knowledge regarding the brain’s functioning (Farooqui & Farooqui, 2017). According to the recent studies that have been conducted by scientists from the global setting it is clear that there are various factors that influences the progress and the start of Alzheimer illness which are mainly linked to genetic disorder (Farooqui & Farooqui, 2017). Understanding the brain more may help in creating different treatments that can help in treating the neurological disorders which affects thousands of persons from the global setting. The knowledge may help in creating reversing treatment strategies that would help the affected persons. The brain initiative can be an effective an useful one in broadening brain’s knowledge which will help in drawing more medical solutions to the rising brain disorders.

Enzymes can best be categorized as catalysts which draws the implication that they are normally chemicals that offers assistance in making the reaction of chemicals to occur speedily and easily (Polaina & MacCabe, 2007). In general, enzymes are utilized in cleaning products so that effectiveness can be accomplished in handling the complex dirt forms that are struggled with by normal cleaning products. Lipases are one of the major enzymes that are used in cleaning products. Lipases are a constitutional of biocatalysts that are applied in bio technology. Lipases are normally added to household and industrial laundry detergents. The objective of utilizing lipases in cleaning products is so that fatty residues as well as clogged cleaning drains can be removed . lipases is characterized with high power of cleaning and such other enzymes like amylases, celluloses, proteases and lipases are normally added to the cleaning products so that the efficiency required in cleaning can be improved. Lipases are utilized in cleaning products so that they can break down any presence of grease and fats (Polaina & MacCabe, 2007).
One enzyme’s molecule has the ability of acting similar to several substrate molecules in breaking the existing molecular bonds. Lipases substrate is referred to as Triglyceride which is a major building unit of lipids. The primary product of the enzyme are the normal subunits of Triglycide which included fatty acids as well as glycerol. Lipase works by breaking down lipids which is referred to as catabolisation (Polaina & MacCabe, 2007). Since lipids are composed of glycerol that is normally attached to the three major fatty chains the substrate directly becomes lipids while the general products are both fatty acids and glycerol. As an enzyme lipase hydrolyzes lipids as the substrate thus breaking the triglycerides bonds in order to create glycerol and fatty acids (Polaina & MacCabe, 2007).
