Module 5 Discussion 2: Disease Analysis Journal

Overview

This module, you will find articles of interest around the following areas: endocrine system diseases, the musculoskeletal system, and integumentary system diseases. These systems govern our physical and emotional place in the world, and can impact us accordingly if we were to suffer from any of these diseases. Think about how these disorders can impact how a person lives day-to-day.

You should spend approximately 10 hours on this assignment.
