  The Six Muscles of the Eye The  human eye  has six eye muscles. They are split into two primary groups: the recti muscles and the oblique muscles. The four recti muscles are the lateral rectus, the medial rectus, the inferior rectus, and the superior rectus while the two oblique muscles are the inferior oblique and the superior oblique. In this post, we’ll talk about each of the six muscles and discover their function and purpose in the human eye. Lateral Rectus The lateral rectus is a muscle of the eye’s orbit. The main function of this muscle is to pull the pupil away from the midline of the body. The word lateral rectus comes from the Latin  latus , meaning “side” and  rectus,  “straight.” Here is more in-depth information on the lateral rectus muscle: “The lateral rectus originates at the lateral part of the annulus of Zinn, also known as the annular tendon or common tendinous ring, and inserts into the temporal side of the eyeball. The annulus of Zinn is a tendinous ri

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE HEART

  Structure and Function of the Heart As a central part of the circulatory system, the heart is primarily responsible for pumping blood and distributing oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. Because of this task, the heart may be considered one of the most important organs of the body, such that even small dysfunctions or abnormalities may cause drastic changes or effects in the human organism. The heart is a muscle whose working mechanism is made possible by the many parts that operate together. The organ is divided into several chambers that take in and distribute oxygen-poor or oxygen-rich blood. These chambers are accompanied by veins and arteries that facilitate the same function. With all of its parts working together towards the same goal, the heart successfully pumps blood with ease. Normally, a good-functioning adult heart could go on three cardiac cycles or 72 beats per minute—this rate changes for children whose heart rates are normally and relatively faster. Str

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CHILD ABUSE

Neglect Is the Most Common Form of Child Abuse Child abuse facts reveal that neglect is the most common out of 4 basic types of child abuse. It is defined as the inability of caretakers to provide sufficient physical or emotional care to a child or children. Some 78% of all cases of child abuse are classified as neglect, followed by physical abuse with 18%, sexual abuse with 9%, and emotional abuse with 8%. Many children are victims of more than just one form of child abuse. Sexual Abuse Is Not the Same as Physical Abuse Physical abuse is defined as physical aggression towards a child, often resulting in injuries or even worse. Although sexual abuse is often also physical, it sometimes lacks direct physical contact (indecent exposure of an adult to a child, indecent viewing of a child’s genitalia by an adult, exposing a child to pornographic material etc.). Sexual abuse is defined as any abuse in which an adult uses a child for sexual stimulation. Child Abuse Can Result in D

UNBELIEVEABLE FACT ABOUT GUN

A GUN CANNOT KILL A MAN NEITHER A MAN KILL A MAN WITH GUN “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people” is a well-known slogan used by the National Rifle Association and other pro-gun activists to make the case for their deregulation agenda. This view suggests that the weapon type does not matter, as an assailant who is determined to kill will do whatever is necessary to accomplish that purpose. Whether the victim lives or dies is viewed as a reliable measure of the shooter’s intent, and in particular the shooter’s determination to kill. Criminal law conforms with this view by reserving the most severe punishments, such as the death penalty and life without parole, for murderers. The “people kill people” argument suggests that enhanced gun controls would do little to change homicide rates as the intent of the killer matters much more than the weapon. Our new research, along with other compelling evidence, demonstrates that this view is false and that the type of weapon used is high
