25
afterent pathways
carrie’s stimulus toward CNS
26
efferent pathway
carrie’s stimulus away from CNS
27
afferent carries info ___ CNS
to
28
efferent carrie’s info ___ CNS
from
29
homeostatic controls
1.) receptor 2.) control center 3.) effector
30
what is a receptor
sensor that responds to initial stimuli measures variable
31
what is the control center
receives input from receptor compares variable to set point determines response
32
what is the effector
receives output from control center adjusts variable
33
integrative center is aka
control center
34
what is metabolism
sun of catabolism + anabolism
35
catabolism
break down of molecules
36
anabolism
synthesis of molecules
37
requirements for life
growth reproduction metabolism digestión excretion movement responsiveness’s maintaining boundaries
