Organism
A single individual
Organ system
Group of organs that perform a particular function
- Composed of 2 or more tissues
2. Tissues work together to perform function
Organ
- Group of similar cells
2. 4 main types of tissues
Tissue
- Smallest unit capable of performing function
2. Made up of discrete components
Cells and cellular compound
Examples of negative feedback
- Vasodilation/vasoconstriction
- ⬆️⬇️ urine volume
- Digestive enzymes
- Change respiration or urinary system
- Body temperature
- Fluid volume
- Hormone release
- Body’s pH levels
Examples of positive feedback
Childbirth
- “Mushrooming” cycle
2. Signals are recognized which cause additional changes
Signal changes to increase a body’s response
Action potentials: influx of Na+ causing more voltage-gated channels to open
Blood clotting: platelets aggregate and release other factors which further promote clotting
High fever: high temperatures ⬆️ body’s metabolic rate >⬆️ body’s temperature
Additional examples of positive feedback
Epithial
Barrier
