Q

Explain how sweating occurs within reference to the stimulus repsonse mode

A

1.Stimulus—high temperature
2. Receptor–thermorecerptors on the skin regulating BT
3.Modulator–hypothemaulus responds y targetting sweat galnds
4.Effector—sweat glands increase water production for heat to evaporate
5.response-sweating to decrease body temperature

Q

Explain how shivering occurs with reference to the stimulus response model

A

1.Stimulus-changes in temperature(cold tmep)

2.Receptor-thermoreceptors in skin detect the heat

3.Modulator=hypothemalusus responds by targetting brain

  1. Effector-brain sends a message to skeletal muscles

5.response-response is to shiver in order to increase BT

Q

Explain how you pat a dog with reference to the stimulus response model

A

1.stimulus-cute dog

2.recetpro-the cells of your eye detect the light that they’re recievieng from your environment

3.modulator-your brain interpets these light signals as a dog and sends signals to the muslces of your arm

4.effector the muslces of your arm contract and extend

5.response-you pat the dog

Q

.barorecetpors

A

detects chnages in pressure

17
Q

.chemoreceptors

A

detects changes in chemical concentration

18
Q

photorecrptors

A

detects changes in light

19
Q

Vasoconstriction

A

(muscles tightening your blood vessels to shrink the space inside)

20
Q

●Vasodilation

A

the widening of blood vessels as a result of the relaxation of the blood vessel’s muscular walls.

21
Q

The 4 types of heat transfer

A

1.conduction
2.evaporaiton
3.convection
4.evaporation
5. radiation

22
Q

conduction

A

transfer of haet throuhg physical conctact eg. heat from a hot mug transffereed to your hands

23
Q

evaporation

A

loss of heat when water transforms into gas eg.sweating on skin evaporates

24
Q

convcetion

A

transfer of heat via the movement of a liquid of a gas between the areas od diffreent temperatures eg. sweating on the skin evaporates

25
Q

radiation

A

transfer heat through electromagnetic waves(no contact required) eg. sun warms you through radiation

26
Q

negative feedabckk

A

a response that is the reverse of the change detected (it functions to reduce the change)

27
Q

negaitve feebdkac exmaple provide

A

The set point for temperature is 37°C. The stimulus detected is an increase in temperature and the response is to sweat to increase evaporation from the skin and decrease body temperature.

28
Q

positive feebdack

A

Occurs when the response increases the initial stimulus.

29
Q

is positive rare and is it apart of hooemtosiss

A

it is rare but not part of homeostatisis

30
Q

example of psotiive fedeack

A

Labour contractions increasing the diameter of the cervix for birth.

31
Q

hormone

A

chemical messenger produced by an organism.

32
Q

s

stimulus response model of a person with hyperthyrdoism prudicng T3 and T4

A
  1. stimulus-change in a variet of factors eg, temp
  2. Receptor-hypotheamulsu release thyotrophin(TRH)
  3. Modulator-anterior pituairty gland releases thyroid stimualting hormone(TSH)
  4. EFFECTOR-thyroid gland
  5. response-release T3 and T4
33
Q

stimulus response model of a normal person producing T3 and T4

A
  1. stimulus-change in a variet of factors eg, temp
  2. Receptor-hypotheamulsu release thyotrophin(TRH)—NEGATIVE FEEDBACK INHIBITION OF TRH
  3. Modulator-anterior pituairty gland releases thyroid stimualting hormone(TSH)—NEGATIVE FEEDBACK INHIBITION OF TSH SECRETION
  4. EFFECTOR-thyroid gland
  5. response-release T3 and T4
34
Q

GRAPH RELATED QUESTION-why does someone with type 1 diabetes blood glucose levels not drop and stay high?

A

someone with type 1 diabetes have high blood glucose levels which do not drop because antigens attack their beta cells which produce insulin, thus insulin is not produced causing blood glucose levels to stay high

35
Q

how do beta blockers work

A

beta blockers block the relase of TSH and TRH

36
Q

different between production of thryoid homrones in someone with hyperthyrodism and somoene wihtout hyprehtyroidsm

A

someone with hyperhtyodims will contiously produc t3 and t4 hormones, whereas a normal person in negative feedback inhibition of TRH and TSH secretiion happens

37
Q

what is feedback inhibition

A

type of negative feedback that can be used to control metabolic pathways by blocking an enzyme from its previous phase in the sequence.
