Answer 4

receptors, coordination components, and effectors

Question 5

What does the body do if levels get too high and what is it called?

Answer 5

1) The receptor detects a stimulus level is too high
2) The coordination centre receives this and organises a response
3) The effector produces a response that counteracts the change and this restores the optimum level and the level decreases
This is called negative feedback

Question 6

What does the body do if levels get too low and what is it called?

Answer 6

1) The receptor detects a stimulus level is too low.
2) The coordination centre receives and organises a response
3) The effector produces a response that counteracts the change and this restores the optimum level and the level increases
This is called negative feedback
