Mummy

A mummy is a corpse whose skin and organs have been preserved by chemicals, extreme coldness, very low humidity, or lack of air when bodies are submerged in bogs. At the present, the oldest discovered ( naturally ) mummified human corpse was separated head. They are 6,000 years old and was found in 1936. The most famous Egyptian mummies are Seti I and Rameses II ( 13th century BC). In the earliest 13th centuries there is one of the Egyptian mummy, nicknamed 'Ginger' for its hair colour, dayes back to approximately 3300 BC.



Mummies of humans and other animals have been found all around the world. Over one million animal mummies have been found in Egypt, many of them are cats. It takes 70 days to burry them and finish doing all of their work.

Pyramids and mummies used thousands of labors, who sacrificed themselves for their Gods or their Emperors, to build and took a long time to finish. I think these things are gorgeous and marvelous. It is not right to see these as silly, terrible, or useless things because these things can tell us how powerful human were in the antiquity.

Diabetes Mellitus

Diabetes mellitus there is in a person who has a high blood sugar ( glucose ) level, because the body doesn't produce enough insulin, or because body cells don't respond properly to the insulin that is produced. Insulin is a hormone produced in the pancreas which enables body cells to absorb glucose, to adapt to energy. If the body cells do not absorb the glucose, the glucose collects in the blood ( hyperglycemia ), leading to vascular, nerve, and other organs.

There are two main types of diabetes

• Type 1 diabetes: result from the body do not produce insulin, and requires the person to inject insulin.
• Type 2 diabetes: result from insulin resistance, a condition in which cells fail to use insulin completely, sometimes combine with an insulin's failure.

Nowadays, in my opinion, diabetes is a very dangerous disease because modern people seem to be careless about their health. They eat everything they like without thinking, especially sweets. Diabetes come with the sugar that people eat, so people might get it without realizing. I think the way that people can prevent this disease is to change their eating habit; to eat healthy food substitute for sweets.
