In this activity, the body reaction in the intake of food will be simulated: Food amount; type of food; when the intake of food took place; how fast the digestion occurs; reaction time of the pancreas; the connection between the blood glucose concentration and the insulin production.

The content will also cover the subject between the coordinated and harmonious functioning of the pancreas (which secretes insulin), the liver, and the body's cells (insulin receivers). The Homeostasis: Process that regulates the blood concentration. Together we’ll discover the cause-effects cycles that characterize the problem and how they become an important part of the solution.

This article will span the effect of pancreas’ insulin production in diabetes type I, as well as the cells’ glucose uptake and their rejection to insulin, all this with the intention of visualizing how it breaks into the cause-effect cycles that regulates the blood glucose concentration in the body, triggering the imbalance in health.

L'idée est de simuler le fonctionnement d'un siphon (vidange brusque d'un réservoir lorsqu'un certain seuil est atteint). Le flux de remplissage est basé sur une sinusoïde dont on peut régler l'amplitude et la fréquence (seule la partie positive de l'oscillation est utilisée).

Dans un second temps, nous utiliserons ensuite l'idée du siphon pour construire un circuit logique hydraulique non trivial (en l'occurrence un additionneur).

How do drugs affect us on individual and popular levels? Let's take a look at drug addiction as a system and pick it apart based on its biological, financial, mental, and communal effects.

Our actions are based on our beliefs and the results of those actions are the basis for our beliefs. The difficulty we create for ourselves is that we make assumptions as to how to interpret the results we select based on our beliefs. As a result we are often operating on a flawed perspective of reality.
