Deliberate Mistakes in OFMD
so…I’m a recent graduate of a massage therapy program. I’m reviewing material for my Mblex exam, and I came to a realization about something…
you know how Blackbeard prompts Stede to stab him in the lower left? And he claims there are no important bits there. 😂
Stede thinks the liver is there.
well, they’re both idiots,
the liver is in the upper right quadrant of the abdomen.
Now, gut stabbing is never good. Puncture your digestive tract, colon or small intestine, you’re in a world of hurt. Plus, back then, they had infections which is how they likely died.
bonus…
when Nick Krall’s pompous character says he wants thornrose (Stede) to “palpitate” his wife, he’s using an incorrect term. The correct word for manually exploring someone’s anatomy with your hands is PALPATE. Palpitation “makes you feel like your heart is beating too fast.”
Yeah, I’m a pedantic biatch, but I love this stuff, because it clearly deliberate! 🤓🤓🤓

@fanfic authors I've found a new way to describe blood (from an anatomical point of view):
Liquid connective tissue
bonus: it's scientifically accurate

they were right calling them fallopian tubes and eustachian tubes. more organs should be called tubes they're all tubes.

Here be a webcomic! HERO’s Incomprehensive Cookbook... of Medicine - Digestive System edition.
This was a little pilot project, combining a fascination of the biological sciences with a need to practice illustrating in Procreate and a recent love of the RPG OMORI. Hero, Kel, and really all of the images were so much fun to draw. I plan to go through as many of the Anatomy & Physiology topics (plus Nutrition) so I get an excuse to draw all the characters in OMORI.
Enjoy!

Day 3 of 100 days of productivity
OCTOBER 12 , 2023
°• Finished reviewing some topics in CNS
°• Reviewed embryology
°• Went through important topics in Gross anatomy
The models start from tomorrow 🥲and I'm not even partially satisfied with my prep.
I need to work on cutting down my screen time, and also procrastinating due to my overconfidence.
Writing here definitely puts things in perspective. Guess I just need to do this more often than scrolling through the tumblr feed lol

-- too much water is transported into the cell
Isotonic
-- the amount of water transported into the cell is equal to the amount of water transported out from the cell
-- the “normal” blood cell
-- solute concentration inside the cell is equal to the solution outside the cell
Hypertonic
-- the cells shrink
-- too much water is transported out from the cell
-- solute concentration inside the cell is lower
