Examples of human papillomavirus in the following topics:
-
- Sexually transmitted infections (STI), also referred to as sexually transmitted diseases (STD) and venereal diseases (VD), are illnesses that have a significant probability of transmission between humans by means of human sexual behavior, including vaginal intercourse, oral sex, and anal sex.
- Common sexually transmitted infections include: gonorrhea, syphillis, chlamydia, genital warts, genital herpes, the human papillomavirus (HPV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
-
- Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection appears to be a necessary factor in the development of almost all cases (90+%) of cervical cancer.
- Infection with some types of human papilloma virus (HPV) is the greatest risk factor for cervical cancer, followed by smoking.
- Other risk factors include human immunodeficiency virus.
-
- Water: Access to a safe, clean and adequate water supply is necessary for human survival.
- Sanitation: Proper means for the removal of human waste helps protect from deadly toxins and pathogens and is critical in promoting human survival.
- Sleep: Seven to eight hours of uninterrupted sleep each night is optimal for human survival .
- Space: As humans, we require personal space.
- Touch: As humans have evolved to interact in community settings, both hunting and gathering in groups, touch—as in a caress—is often considered a basic human survival need.

- The axial skeleton consists of the 80 bones along the central axis of the human body.
- The axial skeleton consists of the 80 bones along the central axis of the human body.
- The human skull is a bony structure which supports the structures of the face and forms a cavity for the brain.
- The ossicles (also called auditory ossicles) are the three smallest bones in the human body.
- The human rib cage, also known as the thoracic cage, is a bony and cartilaginous structure which surrounds the thoracic cavity and supports the pectoral girdle, forming a core portion of the human skeleton.
-
- Human anatomy is the study of the structure of the human body.
- Human anatomy studies the way that every part of a human, from molecules to bones, interacts to form a functional whole.
- The human body has many layers of organization.
- Together with anatomy, these are the three primary disciplines within the field of human biology.
- Human anatomy is the study of the structure of the human body, from the microscopic to the macroscopic.
-
- The number of bones in the human skeletal system is a controversial topic.
- Humans are born with between 300 and 350 bones.
- The human skeleton is composed of both fused and individual bones supported by ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage.
- The axial skeleton consists of the 80 bones along the central axis of the human body.
- The appendicular skeleton is composed of 126 bones in the human body.
-
- The human pelvis has evolved to be narrow enough for efficient upright locomotion, while still being wide enough to facilitate childbirth.
- Human sex differences in pelvic shape have emerged over the course of human evolution.
- The human pelvis is narrower and smaller than that of our closest living relatives, the apes.
- This narrowing of the pelvis has also affected the way humans give birth, as a narrow pelvis makes it more difficult for an infant to move through the birth canal.
- This problem is compounded, because as human pelvises became smaller, the heads of infants became larger to accommodate increased brain size.
-
- Human erythrocytes or red blood cells (RBCs) are the primary cellular component of blood.
- They are involved in oxygen transport through the body and have features that distinguish them from every other type of human cell.
- Adult humans have roughly 20-30 trillion RBCs at any given
time, comprising approximately one quarter of the total number of human cells.
- A typical human RBC has a disk diameter of 6–8 micrometers and a thickness of 2 micrometers, much smaller than most other human cells.
- Each human red blood cell contains approximately 270 million of these hemoglobin biomolecules, each carrying four heme groups (individual proteins).
-
- The human skin is the outer covering of the body.
- In humans, it is the largest organ of the integumentary system.
- The skin is the largest organ in the human body.
- Human skin pigmentation varies among populations in a striking manner.
- A diagram showing the structure and different components of human skin.
-
- The human reproductive system functions to produce human offspring with the male providing sperm and the female providing the ovum.
- While the ultimate purpose of the human reproductive system is to produce offspring, the proximate purpose is to produce pleasure and induce bonding.
- Human reproduction takes place as internal fertilization by sexual intercourse.
- This process is known as pregnancy in humans.
- Human's babies and children are nearly helpless and require high levels of parental care for many years.
