Question
What is a good website that I can go to in order to find answers to questions like. What dramatic processes do the Urinary, Immune, Cardiovascular, muscular,and endocrine systems go through during extended periods of fasting(starvation)to survive?  I can't find the answer to this anywhere.  My teacher said I won't fine it in my text book or in any of the material we have studied thus far.  I don't know what to do.

Answer
  Hi Tammy
There is no single website that will give you this information. You can probably spend hours searching around the web  but here is what I would do if it were me. I would go to the Library, preferably a college library, if you have one nearby, and search for a pathology text and a college level A and P book. There are just times when books are better then the internet.
