25
automatic response in a cell, tissue, or organ to an environmental change
autoregulation
26
responses controlled by nervous and endocrine systems
extrinsic regulation
27
a homeostatic regulatory mechanism consists of
variable, receptor, control center, and effector
28
the factor or event being regulated
variable
29
receives the stimulus
receptor
30
processes the signal and sends instructions
control center
31
carries out instructions
effector
32
the result when a change in condition triggers action that reverses the change
negative feedback mechanism
