(MAIL- 1000 POST CARDS)

A

ENDOCRINE SYSTEM

19
Q
  • senses a change in a particular parameter, stimulus?
  • receives & processes information from receptor, directs a change ?
  • responds to command, can oppose or enhance stimulus?
A

Receptor

Control Center

Effector

20
Q

*Stimulus produces a response that opposes or stops original stimulus
*Tends to minimize change (dynamic/range)
Ex) temperature, blood sugar, most systems
*
*Feeding girl’s plate every time she ate the same amount

A

negative feedback

21
Q

Stimulus produces a response that increases or enhances original stimulus
Tends to produce extreme responses
Ex) child birth, blood clotting

A

Positive feedback

22
Q

Dynamic Equilibrium?

A

*Body is continually ADJUSTING & ADAPTING
Requires coordinated efforts of multiple systems
Effects every cell and tissue
