1
Q

Q

what role does the control center in maintaining homeostasis

A

receives the message and coordinates a response. Sends an output message to an effector

Q

what role does the effector in maintaining homeostasis

A

effectors (muscles and glands) respond to the output from the control center

Q

what happens in the control center

A

the central nervous system evaluates the stimulus and sends to effector for any corrections

Q

the endocrine system

A

made up of ductless glands, which secrete hormones into the blood. These participate in feedback loops and regulate internal functions.

Q

endocrine glands ect

A

endocrine glands are not considered as a part of the endocrine system as they do not produce hormones

16
Q

insulin

A

hormone that acts to increase the uptake of glucose from the blood by body cells

17
Q

glucagon

A

hormone that acts on liver cells resulting in increased release of glucose from the liver cells into the bloostream

18
Q

stimulus-response model regarding blood glucose level

A

stimulus receptor control center response effector

19
Q

stimulus role in blood glucose level

A

blood glucose

20
Q

receptor role in blood glucose level

A

alpha cells in the pancreas

21
Q

control center role in blood glucose level

A

alpha cells of the pancreas secrete the hormone glucagon

22
Q

effector role in blood glucose level

A

live cells and body cells

23
Q

response role in blood glucose level

A

in blood glucose by the release of glucose into the blood from the liver

24
Q

regulation of body temp in animals ( stimulous)

A

the body temperature is below normal

25
regulation of body temp in animals (receptor)
decrease detected by thermoreceptors in skin, organs and hypothalamus of the brain
26
regulation in body temp in animals (control center)
hypothalamus sends signals via never and hormonal systems to effectors
27
regulation in body temp in animals (effector)
blood vessels in the skin and skeletal muscles
28
regulation of body temp in animals (response)
reduced blood flow in skin vessels and shivering occurs
29
thermoreceptors
receptors that detect changes in temperature such as cold-sensitive nerve endings in your skin and groups of temperature sensitive nerve cells
30
explain how negative feedback is involved in the regulation of body temp
it tries and balances everything out fo example sweating is negative feedback because you are hot and need to release the heat
31
thyroid and theromoregualtion
hormones regulate many aspects of metabolism over or under production of hormones can affect metbaloic aspects
32
how is T4 involved in temperature regulation
t4 speed up metabolic activity in cells that increase in metabolic activity also results in the production of heat
