CHARACTERISTIC OF LIFE
ALIVE - GROWTH and development RESPOND to the environment CELLULAR structure & composition METABOLISM energy from chemical reactions HOMEOSTASIS stable inner conditions HEREDITY of traits REPRODUCE offspring
57
A characteristic of all living systems is homeostasis, or the maintenance of stable, internal conditions within specific limits.
Homeostasis
58
Homeostatic control
Negative feedback loop Body temp regulation
59
Negative feedback loop
Stimulus Sensor Control Effector
60
Body temperature regulation
Body temperature exceeds 37°C Nerve cells in skin and brain Temperature regulatory center in brain Sweat glands throughout body
61
is a type of regulation in biological systems in which the end product of a process in turn reduces the stimulus of that same process.
NEGATIVE FEEDBACK MECHANISM
62
A feedback mechanism resulting in the amplification or growth of the output signal.
POSITIVE FEEDBACK MECHANISM
63
is a form of opposite of the Endomorph.
Ectomorph
64
Physically, they tend to have: Narrow shoulders and hips. A thin and narrow face, with a high forehead. A thin and narrow chest and abdomen. Very little body fat. Thin legs and arms.
Ectomorph
65
is somewhere between the round endomorph and the thin ectomorph. Physically, they have the more 'desirable' body, and have:
mesomorph
66
Large head, broad shoulders, and narrow waist (wedge-shaped). Muscular body, with strong forearms and thighs Very little body fat Genetically gifted; greatest bodybuilding potential. Long torso, full chest, good shoulder to waist ratio
mesomorph
67
is physically quite ‘round’, and is typified as the ‘barrel of fun’ person.
Endomorph
68
Wide hips and narrow shoulders, which makes them rather pear-shaped. • Quite a lot of fat spread across the body, including upper arms and thighs. • They have quite slim ankles and wrists, which only serves to accentuate the fatter other parts. • Wide bone structure. • Slower metabolism. • Weight gain is easy, though fat loss is difficult. • Tends to store fat, which hides muscle gains.
Endomorph
69
Environmental change that signals the body
(Stressor
70
Sensor that is sensitive to a stimulus
Receptor
71
Receives and process information
Control Center
72
Cell or organ that responds to the control center
Effector
73
Change in the body to maintain homeostasis
Response
74
Organ systems work together
To keep within the range around the set point
75
Body Systems are They work together to maintain this stable internal environment
Interdependent
76
It is the state of steady internal chemical and physical conditions maintained by living systems.
homeostasis
77
The theory of homeostasis was first introduced by, a French Physiologist in the year.
Claude Bernard, 1865
78
The term was first used in by
1926, Walter Bradford Cannon
79
Bradford derived Homeostasis from the ancient Greek words "
hómoio" which means similar to "stasis" meaning stand still
