Understanding systems, and the impact of illness and environment on these systems 
The assignment will be in two parts. 
Part one -1,000 words 
Describe the function of two of the systems in the body (for example, cells, the urinary system, the digestive system). 
Part two - 1,000 words 
Discuss the impact of either: 
a long-term condition such as COPD, Diabetes, MS, Covid-19, Parkinson's, etc. on the systems in the body 
or an environmental factor such as smoking, alcohol misuse, substance misuse, obesity on the systems in the body.
