    regulations. If these concerns were addressed and properly fixed the lives of seventeen crewmembers could have been saved, and the Sudur Havid would not have perished. The majority of the resources used throughout learning about this hypothesis were made up of scholarly articles. In the article “Fishing Occupational Health and Safety,” the authors compared many South African regulations with other countries around the world. The articles also discussed legal regulations for fishing vessels like the Sudur Havid. An article on the 1993 Torremolinos Protocol was very helpful in discussing safety inspections and certificates required for the ships to set sail. Government websites like the South American Maritime Safety Authority, helped clear up any confusion about complex laws that were harder to understand. Government websites also give more in depth specification on safety equipment for each particular type of ship and location. Lewis gives great details in his story of survival, which allows the research process to be very specific for the Sudur Havid’s case. In the beginning of the story, Lewis tells of an account that happened during the beginning of their voyage. The water pumps on the Sudur Havid were in charge of getting rid of water that came in the fishing factory while the crew members were working. After just a day out of port, the boat began experiencing problems with the ship’s pumps and had to return back to port. The pumps replaced back in the ship were only…

    As the blood travels, the arteries branch out so that there are more and more of them, but they get smaller and smaller. Eventually, the blood reaches the capillaries…After passing through the capillaries, the blood returns to the heart by traveling through veins. Veins, which are small and numerous near the capillaries, form larger and larger vessels. At the same time, there are fewer and fewer of these larger vessels, so only a few large veins return blood directly to the heart.” (Shannon…

    Describe the major components of the cardiovascular system The cardiovascular system is a complex system made up of three major components, the heart, the blood, and the vessels. The heart is the epicenter of the cardiovascular system. Although it is very small in size, it serves a huge purpose in the human body! It serves as a pump that distributes blood throughout the body to other organs through veins, arteries, and capillaries. Blockages in these pumps can lead to heart disease, and heart…

    system are all at risk of damage and negative long-term scars. When the body is stressed, the first response comes from the sympathetic nervous system. This system helps the body elicit a “fight-or-flight” response and direct all energy towards fixing or fighting the stress. The adrenal glands then release adrenaline and cortisol which cause the heart to beat faster, respiration rate to increase, blood vessels in the arms and legs to dilate, a change in the digestive process, and glucose…
