Q

scientific method

A

a. make observations
b. form hypothesis. must be testable. it is a guess statement. can be negative or positive. (lifting does make you stronger vs lifting weight doesnt)
c. design and conduct experiments or make more observations. subects, methods, materials, which tests.
d. analyze the data
e. results must be replicated many time before a conclusion is accepted.
f. serveral verified hypotheses may become a general theory.
DISCUSSION: interpretting the results and findings.

Q

Homeostasis 4.

A
  1. his constany of the internal environment
  2. the main purpose of our physiological mechanisms is to maintain homeo
  3. deviation from homeostasis indicates disease.
  4. homeo is accomplished most often by negative feedback looop. it is dynamic. it balances ***

Q

negative feedback loops** pathways3

A

A. sensors:in the body to detect change and send info to the
B. Integrating center:which assesses change around a set point. the integrating center then sends instrucitons to an
C. Effector:which can make the appropriate adjustments to counter the change from the setpoint.

Q

mechanis of negative feedback loops** 4

A

a. moves in the oposite direction form the change
b. makes the change from setpoint smaller
c. reverses the chagne in teh setpoint
d. this is a continuous process, always making fine adjustments to stay in homeo.

Q

positive feeback 3.

A

the end product in a process stimulates the process.
b. the actio amplifies the changes that stimulated the effectors.
3. positive fedback could not work alone, but it does contibute to many negative feedback loops

Q

HORMones and feedback control 2.

A

hormes are secred in response to stimuli ( an increase i blod sugar results in release of insulin which remofes sugar
secretion can be inhibted by its own effects (decreased blood sugar inhibits the release of insulin
