The Immune Response
Other than swelling at a cut, and maybe some pus or a slight fever, we would be forgiven for not being aware of the existence of the human immune system. It is however a highly complex system, and when it is overwhelmed, things can get a lot more serious. In this informative and engaging program the three levels of immune defense are explored in isolation and as part of a disparate yet interconnected system. High quality animations are used to illustrate the nature of specific and nonspecific defense mechanisms deployed by the human immune system. The role of human intervention in the defense against disease is also explored.

The Digestive System, Nutrition & Metabolism
Every cell in the body needs nutrients to survive and do work. The nutrients come from food, which is physically and chemically broken down in the digestive system. After the food is digested, the nutrients pass into the bloodstream and supply the body’s cells with the nutrients they need.
