Instructions:
A quality initial post is a minimum of 250 words.
The use of at least one peer-reviewed source is required.
Review the full discussion board guidelines Download discussion board guidelines, if you need a reminder.
This discussion focuses on naming conventions of medical terms. This information is beneficial in learning more about word roots, modifiers, and word origins. This will help lay a foundation for exploration of other body systems and will help strengthen skills in learning and associating terms and definitions.
Answer the following:
Select one bone and one muscle from this unit.
More complicated names provide better opportunity for exploration.
Make every effort to avoid duplicating structures selected by others.
Translate the bone and muscle names.
Provide rationale for the translation of the bone and muscle.
Example: Quadratus Lumborum – Quad means 4 / Lumborum means Lumbar Region or Lower Back. The translated version of this name is the “Four Sided Muscle of the Lower Back”.
Explain how understanding roots and origins of medical terms is helpful in the building of terminology skills.
Please be sure to validate your opinions and ideas with citations and references in APA format.

Scenario/Summary
Manuel loved the outdoors and loved playing softball. There was no better way to spend a weekend than on the diamond hitting the ball and cooking burgers on the park grill.
“Hey Jose, great game this afternoon,” Manuel said to his friend.
“Yep,” Jose replied. “I loved how you hit the ball over that right fielder’s head. I think he is still running after it.”
“That was a lucky hit. I couldn’t do that again if I tried,” said Manuel.
“When is soup on? I’m getting hungry for one of your ¾ pound hamburgers with all of the fixings,” asked Jose.
“Soon brother, real soon,” said Manuel. “Can you hand me my Coke can on the bench other there?”
“Sure thing amigo,” replied Jose while handing the Coke can to Manuel.
“Yikes!” exclaimed Manuel after he spit out the Coke. “There was a bee in the can and it stung the roof of my mouth.”
Within a few minutes, Manuel developed generalized hives on his face and upper body and experienced shortness of breath and chest pains. The paramedics were called and quickly transported Manuel to the local emergency room where he was treated with epinephrine.
Deliverables
Answer the following questions and save your responses in a Microsoft Word document. Provide a scholarly resource to support your answers.

2. Briefly describe the different types of hypersensitivity reactions.
3. What type of hypersensitivity reaction is Manuel likely experiencing and how do you know?
4. Is this an antibody or T-cell mediated response? What class of antibodies or type of T-cells are involved?
5. Why was epinephrine administered and how does epinephrine work in this case?

Teacher feedback: Good draft!
Areas of the paper that need work for the final draft:
Try to focus in on a specific behavior you are trying to increase – rather than the general “peace and happiness”. For example, sometimes you refer to relaxation as the target behavior (which is a good specific behavior). Other times you refer to relaxation as the reward/reinforcement, and it’s unclear what behavior you are reinforcing (you just mention a general “task”).
Also, be more specific about how you would use the schedules, what the reinforcement will be with the schedules, and when the reinforcement would be delivered.
Review the terms PRE, negative reinforcement, punishment, and shaping to correctly apply them to your situation.
Don’t just list terms (like the types of schedules) without demonstrating you know how to apply them (or how they don’t apply) to your situation.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
