What is the function of tissue fluid?
Tissue fluid accomplishes many functions necessary for the body's cells to survive and work together. The first is support. Cells suspended in fluid are protected from damage caused by the vibrations of an animal's movement. More importantly, tissue fluid acts as a medium for cells to send chemical messages to one another. A related function is that the fluid acts as a waste disposal system for every cell it surrounds.

Yes, I would list them in with the last degree obtained as first as follows:
Example:
College - Bachelor of arts in communications (2003-2005)
College - Associate of arts in fine arts (2001-2003)
A bachelors degree in one area does not mean you must take a master's degree in the same or even related field. For example, one can have a bachelor's degree in Psychology and a masters in Organizational Management. You may have a bachelors in Medical Lab Tech, but take a Master's in Business Administration (MBA). Some have completed a Liberal Arts degree and went on to medical school. Some graduate programs may requires the appropriate prerequisites, however once you complete them you may go on to that program of study - provided you meet all other entrance requirements dictated by the offering department. The question is; which graduate program will fit your specific needs. I would advise you speak with the Department Chairperson or faculty where you completed your bachelors, if indeed your intent is to follow through to a higher degree within the same field. If your interest lies in another area, then you need to research which schools offer that program of study. You can do this by going to www.collegeboard.com/splash/ and use their College MatchMaker search engine. Have patience with this. When you get the hang of it, you can research any college or university by either name, or major and geographical area. Viper1

Can you get an upper second class degree with a third in your second year?
It depends what level of weighting the University puts on the second and third years - some are 50/50, some are 30/70 and it depends whether you got a near 2.2 or scraped a third. If you're third was a near 2.2, you might score an extremely low 2.1 or will end with a 2.2 or a third overall - the later being more likely. It is possible in theory but will mean you HAVE to work like you have never worked before to even stand a chance as you will need a high 2.1 or first in the final year to raise the average overall. Saying that, hard work does pay off.

IE. If you have 4 classes, and all A's, that's an A for each class, which which would give you 16 pts, divided by 4 classes, would give you a GPA of a 4.0. AP classes give you higher points giving you higher GPAs.

How can you help your son stay and finish college?
This is a very difficult situation within any family. If you pressure him, he most likely will draw away from you. Pressure is never a solution. In most cases, individuals who are at risk of dropping out, are those who do not have a vision for themselves. He may be confused as to what exactly he wants out of life, and exactly what it is he wants to do. This often results in confusion, lack of motivation, an unwillingness to change circumstances etc. That being said, he has to know that you will support him as a person no matter what circumstances he will find himself in. My son chose not to go to college at this time. He wanted to contribute to the safety of our country. He is now in the Marine Corps. This is not something I wanted for him, but being a former Marine myself, he grew up with this, and thus made his decision. There was nothing I could do to change his mind. Thus, the only thing I could do was give him all my support, and thus far it has worked out well. He is accumulating educational benefits through the Marine Corps, and plans to pursue his college degree after he is discharged. However, every situation is different, and not knowing the details of your particular situation, I would still strongly recommend you not use pressure, and do not let your emotions get in the way of what is actually be said.
Below is something that I have posted to a number of individuals, who apparently had little or no direction in terms of higher education. Maybe you can gain some valuable information from it that will help your son. Remember, he must acquire a vision. Once he has a vision of something he really and heart-fully wants to do, he will pursue it with everything he's got. It's just a matter of finding that vision. Thus, the following.
The best course to study is the one that leads to your overall career goals and objectives. Thus, I would imagine you do not have anything specific at this time. So many individuals enroll in college programs without a specific goal in mind. As such, many become miserable in their work which is not good for them, or their employer. If you want to be successful in your work and life, carefully consider the following.
To be successful in your work, you must acquire a vision. A vision is a clearly articulated picture of the future you intend to create for yourself. In other words, it's a dream. However, if the dream does not have direction, it will always remain a dream and will never become a reality for you. That vision should create a passion within you, a love for what you do and the benefit it brings others as well as yourself. Make sure the vision is specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and tangible. Let us look at this closer. When you believe you have chosen an appropriate career goal, look at it in SMART fashion as follows. * Specific - Make sure your career goal is very specific. For example, "I would like to be a teacher," is not specific. "I would like to be a high school biology teacher in New Jersey (USA) in an urban school by 2012" is. * Measurable - Make sure you can measure your progress. How will I know I am progressing in the right direction? This is where the development of short-term objectives comes in (discussed below). You will know you are on the right path as you accomplish each short -term objective. * Achievable - Is the goal achievable considering my current life situation and circumstances? * Realistic - Is what I want to do really realistic. For example, "I would like to be a middle weight boxing champion, and I am 63 years old." That is not realistic. * Tangible - What will I - specifically - have at the end? What will I be (exactly)? It must be very specific. Once you have that vision your path will become clear. Still, you will need a mentor, counselor, or coach who will be able to help you develop a road map embedded with short term objectives leading to your overall career overall goals and objectives. The achievement of short-term objectives will indicate you are moving in the correct direction, and will also give you energy and excitement to carry on towards your overall career goal. It will take some research, but you most likely have some ideas already. Follow them through, look at the nature of the field, the everyday routine, the required education, the salary, the occupational demand and the related fields. When a career sparks an interest, try to shadow an individual who is actually doing what you think you might like to do. You can pick up valuable information this way. Thus, the following. * Acquire the will to change circumstances. * Acquire the vision (dream). * Develop a road-map embedded with short-term objectives leading to your overall goal and objective. * Just do it and do not let go until it becomes a reality.

How many semester hours does it take to get an AS?
The associates degree is designed as a two year program of study as a full-time student provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college, and provided the student does not require prerequisite coursework as a result of basic skills testing. There are some programs of study that may take a bit longer depending on the number of credits required. Usually these are programs within the health related fields. In addition, for students who require developmental coursework as a result of basic skills testing, it would take longer. How much longer would depend on the extent of the developmental courses they are required to take.
