Homeostasis
Maintenance of nearly constant conditions in the internal environment
Homeo meaning
Similar (internal env maintained within a range of values)
Stasis
Condition not a state
Factors homeostatically regulated
- Concentration of nutrients
- Concentration of O2 + CO2
- Concentration of waste products
- pH
- Concentration of water, salt, and other electrolytes
- Volume and pressure
- Temperature
3 components control system
- Input signal
- Controller / integrating center
- Output signal
- Response
Intrinsic (local controls) vs extrinsic (systematic controls)
Intrinsic: built into in an organ
E.g. skeletal muscle uses up most O2 when exercising so chemical change directly on smooth muscle causing it to relax and dilate the vessels which results in more blood flow to the muscle more O2
Extrinsic: regulatory mechanisms initiated outside the organ to alter organ’s activity -> more complex control systems to maintain homeostasis.
2 major regulatory systems: nervous n endocrine systems
Homeostasis control mechanisms
Negative feedback: rise in body temp -> sweating, low body temp -> shiver generate heat
Positive feedback: increase oxytocin for contractions during birth -> triggers more oxytocin to be released
Positive feedback requires feedback cycle to be shut off by an outside factor
