520    Genetics & DNA: the genetic theories of aging: No organism
       lives forever. The length of time animals and humans live 
       is influenced by their genes. 5Scientists have made 
       astonishing discoveries concerning the role of genetics in
       determining life span and this holds promise of extending 
       the lives of animals and humans. This program explains 
       Genetics, DNA and genetic theories of aging. It 
       illustrates the genetic processes behind cellular aging 
       and shows how genes affect life span. Discover the reasons
       why cells age and why a certain enzyme can effectively 
       turn back the hands of our "biological clock." 
520    Skin: our largest organ: The skin is the largest human 
       organ. Take a close look at the epidermis, which provides 
       the first line of defense against the outside world and 
       delves into the mysteries of the dermis - the inner skin. 
       Discover how the body fights off infections and the 
       damaging effects of the sun. 
520    A trip through the circulatory system: This program looks 
       at how our bodies acquire and process energy for everyday 
       life. Explore two different physiological systems that 
       work together in order to keep our bodies running 
       efficiently. Students will learn how our respiratory 
       system processes oxygen and how oxygen is used within our 
       bodies. Well also learn about the circulatory system and 
       how it transports oxygen throughout our bodies. 
520    Blood: vital to our existence: Plasma and red blood cells 
       transport essential nutrients through the circulatory 
       system, while different types of blood cells fight off 
       bacteria and viruses to help keep us healthy. This program
       explores the composition of blood and looks at the heart 
       and circulatory system. It features animated graphics that
       demonstrate the pumping of the heart, how red blood cells 
       carry oxygen to the cells and remove carbon dioxide and 
       how white blood cells protect the body. 
520    Anatomy & functions of the face : The face is our window 
       to the world. Organs of the mouth take in food, start the 
       digestive process and protect us from various hazards. The
       face is also used to communicate through expressions and 
       other non-verbal signals that give people information 
       about us. This program describes the anatomy and functions
       of different aspects of the face and mouth and what 
       scientists have learned about universal beliefs related to
       facial symmetry. 
520    Movement of the human body : The relationship between our 
       skeletal and muscular systems allows our body to stand and
       move. This program looks at the human body in motion. It 
       explains the composition of our muscles and bones and it 
       illustrates how they interact to create movement. Discover
       how researchers use this knowledge to improve athletic 
       performance and to develop new and improved technologies 
       by adapting elements of the body's mechanics. 
520    The spine & spinal cord: the body's control : The spinal 
       cord has fascinated scientists for centuries. The ability 
       to walk is engineered by the spinal cord and the spinal 
       column. This program looks at the design of the spinal 
       cord and the medical advances in treating spinal cord 
       injuries. Discover the research continually being done by 
       scientists researching paralysis in an effort to one day 
       find a cure. 
520    History of the brain: The extraordinary complexity and 
       power of the human brain gives each of us the capability 
       to do things other creatures cannot, such as read and 
       write. This program introduces brain physiology and 
       function and explains what makes the human brain so 
       exceptional. It shows how brains have advanced in 
       complexity from the arrangement of a few nerve cells in 
       the earliest and simplest creatures to the complexity of 
       the mammalian brain. 
520    The brain: the first computer: The human brain is often 
       compared to a computer. Both receive input, process 
       information and produce output. However the three-pound 
       organ inside your head is far more complex, powerful and 
       capable than even the most advanced computer. This program
       makes the comparison to show students what is known - and 
       what researchers have yet to discover - about how our 
       brains process and store information. Students will learn 
       how the brain uses chemical messengers to control the body
       and some ways scientists are learning more about our 
       amazing brains! 
520    Brain, memory & sight: We can remember the smell of an 
       apple or a math formula. All these memories are stored in 
       the three-pound organ inside our skull called the brain. 
       This program looks at how memories are made - how we 
       remember things and how the human brain makes sense of all
       the information constantly flowing into it and stored in 
       it. Scientists believe that memories are broken up and 
       stored in complex networks of brain cells and put back 
       together when they are recalled. Discover how learning is 
       linked to memory and how the sense of smell may enhance 
       learning. 
520    Overcoming vision impairments: There are over 42 million 
       people worldwide who suffer from total or partial loss of 
       vision and are defined as being blind. This program 
       explains how the human eye works, examines some of the 
       major causes of blindness and shows how medical science 
       and technology are helping people with impaired vision 
       lead satisfying and productive lives. New surgical 
       procedures and advanced image processing technologies are 
       also presented in this program. 
520    A look into the human eye: Eyes are one of the most 
       overworked organs. We depend on our eyesight daily and 
       often dont realize how much until something goes wrong. 
       Vision impairments can be the result of heredity or trauma
       to the eye. Routine eye exams can detect and help prevent 
       further loss of vision. The most common of vision 
       impairments can easily be corrected with eyeglasses, 
       contact lenses and now surgery. Through research, 
       scientists are discovering new ways to improve and restore
       vision.
