Fantastic Voyage
[hs130, section: ____ ]
I walked into my office at 8:00 AM with an empty mind. I was worried about the transmission that I needed to air in two days. When my boss asked me that morning about what the transmission would be, I lied and said, "Let that be a surprise!" I quickly logged online for ideas. Just then, I was interrupted by a man who wanted to speak to me. Annoyed at his persistent nagging, I grabbed my camera and decided to follow him to where he wanted to take me. During our ride, he asked me the most bizarre question, "can you film inside a patient? The doctors can't seem to understand what's going on in her body." My reaction was rather quick and loud, "Are you insane?" He pointed to a medium sized box in his backpack, "Whenever you're ready!"
He escorted me to the private wing at the hospital. We both sneaked in to room 113 and locked the door. In the room lay a middle aged woman who looked very pleased to see me. "I had been waiting," she said. My experience inside that room was almost unreal. I underwent a miniaturization process in which I was reduced to a size of only 8 microns. I was put in a syringe and injected into the femoral vein, from where I started my journey.
Landing in this apparently low-pressure vessel, I had to grab the sides to balance myself. I couldn't believe how small I had become -- almost just as big as a red blood cell! I quickly reached out for my torch to analyze the map that I had been given. Staring down at it, I immediately located where I was standing. I decided to follow the red blood cells and the slightly larger white blood cells.
Moving ahead, I noticed that there were smaller blood vessels that branched out from larger ones. These vessels were just my size and some...
Fantastic Voyage [hs130, section: ____ ] Today, on the twentieth of August, I will take you on a trip inside the gastrointestinal tract, and beyond in the human body to observe the process of digestion and excretion. As simple as it may seem, this process is more than just moving down a hollow tube. To understand this more deeply, let's begin our journey!

Fantastic Voyage Welcome aboard the SS William Harvey! As you well know the human body is a complex system of intricate cells that work together to maintain a perfect and efficient environment on which an individual can thrive. Two systems in the human body that work together to ensure that a human individual remains healthy are the circulatory and the cardiopulmonary systems. Working in conjunction with each other, these systems help
Fantastic Voyage-Fem artery to Right lung A Fantastic Voyage from the Right Femoral Artery to the Right Lung The human body is an intricate system of labyrinths that work together to maintain essential functions and thus maintain an individuals physical health. Two systems that work together are the circulatory and cardiopulmonary systems. Together, these systems help to transport gasses, nutrients, wastes, and hormones to various organs in the body. While it is
Fantastic Voyage Through the Body The man is eating a hamburger and French fries while drinking a root beer. He is mechanically separating the food into smaller units, and then he is swallowing it. For this exercise, it is important to realize that there are four different types of material that will be absorbed by the body and that they are all absorbed differently. These are fiber from the leafy greens
The oxygen attaches to the blood cells and this is the means by which oxygenated blood returns to the body. We are investigating the lower lobe of the right lung. This part of the lung is generally free from bacteria and that is the case here; our human is healthy. Nonspecific immunity refers to the mechanisms the body uses collaboratively with other systems. In the lower lobe, the spongy outside
In other words, the simile is more concrete and memorable than the green hill it is supposed to describe. The lack of 'realism' of the poem becomes even more evident through the use of such strange language: the use of language is more important than describing something 'real' like a hill. If this were not extravagant enough, Coleridge piles yet another image on top of this one that asks the
