26
What is homeostasis?
a dynamic state of equilibrium. maintaining a stable internal environment despite external change.
27
What are the two feedback loops?
1. negative feedback 2. positive feedback
28
What is negative feedback?
Reverses bodily response back to normal state.
29
Explain the negative feedback loop of body temperature control. What are the receptors, control center, and effectors?
thermoreceptors...hypothalamus...sweat glands, skin, blood vessels... sweat, vessel dilation/constriction.
30
Explain the negative feedback loop of blood sugar control. What are the receptors, control center, and effectors?
increased blood glucose...pancreas releases insulin...increased storage of glucose...decreased blood sugar.
31
Explain the negative feedback loop of salt control. What are the receptors, control center, and effectors?
high salt...kidneys release salt to urine...excreted...decreased salt
32
What is positive feedback?
Promotes further change from normal.
33
Explain the positive feedback loop of stretching the birth canal? What are the receptors, control center, and effectors?
birth canal stretches...pressure receptors triggered...pituatary..increased oxytocin...increased uterine contraction..increased stretching (repeat).
