Q

-Organismal

A

made up of the organ system

24
Q

The integumentary system

A

protects the body from the external environment (skin)

25
Digestive and respiratory systems
in contact with the external environment, take in nutrients and oxygen (food and air)
26
Cardovascular system
transports blood carrying oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, wastes (blood)
27
Skeletal system
bones that give body framework (bones)
28
Muscular system
permits body parts to move
29
Lympathic system
returns liquid to blood, provides immunity
30
Nervous system
brain and control
31
Endocrine system
hormonal control
32
Urinary system
removes waste
33
Reproductive system
Male or Female, produce new humans
34
Maintaining boundaries
the internal environment remains distinct from the external environment
35
(Maintaining boundaries) -Cellular level
accomplished by plasma membranes
36
(Maintaining boundaries) -Organismal level
accomplished by the skin
37
Movement
locomotion, propulsion (peristalsis), and contractility
38
Responsiveness
ability to sense changes in the environment and respond to them
39
Digestion
breakdown of ingested food
40
Metabolism
all the chemical reactions that occur in the body
41
Excretion
removal of wastes from the body
42
(Reproduction) -Cellular
an orginal cell divides and produces two identical daughter cell
43
(Reproduction) -Organismal
sperm and egg divides and produces two identical daughter cells
44
Growth
increase in size of a body part or of the organism
45
(Survival Needs) -Nutrients
needed for energy and cell building
46
(Survival Needs) -Oxygen
necessary for metabolic reactions
47
(Survival Needs) -Water
provides the necessary environment for chemical reactions
48
(Survival Needs) -Normal body temperature
necessary for chemical reactions to occur at life- sustaining rates
49
(Survival Needs) -Atmosperic pressure
required for proper breathing and gas exchange in the lungs
50
Homeostasis
ability to maintain a relatively stable internal environment in an ever changing outside world
51
-Receptor
monitors the environments and responds to changes
52
-Control center
determines the set point at which the variable is maintained
53
-Effector
provides the means to respond to stimuli
54
Negative feedback
furnace controls house temperature
55
Positive feedback
output enhances original stimulus(blood clotting)
56
Homeostatic Imbalance
1 ) Disturbance of homeostasis or the body's normal equilibrium 2 ) Overwhelming the usual negative feedback mechanisms allows destructive positive feedback mechanisms to talk over
