The guest lecture by Dr. Nazia
Khan was arranged in MPH on 19.2.13 in connection to our on-going unit of
inquiry on human body systems and their working. It was very interesting. We
learned mostly about Homeostasis which maintains the balance of our body. We
also learned that a group of tissues are called organs and our organs make our
body. Talking about the body reminds me of all the diseases. Diseases like
cancer and heart attack can cause death. That’s way it is important to maintain
right body temperature i.e. 37 degree Celsius. There is another important part
of regulating body temperature which is “sweat”. The body itself realizes when
to sweat or not, for example, when you are in a hot place your blood vessels
get swollen up and starts getting heated up. So maintain the balance, the body
let out some heat which makes us sweat. Dr. Nazia patiently answered our
endless queries.
I loved the guest lecture.
I wish to have more guest lecture like this!- Ankitha
