21
Q

▪ Determines set point

▪ Analyzes information

▪ Determines appropriate response

A

Control center

22
Q

▪ Provides a means for response to the stimulus

▪ Information flows from control center to effector along efferent pathway

A

Effector

23
Q

2 Feedback Mechanisms

A

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

POSITIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

24
Q

If a response REVERSES the original stimulus

A

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

25
Q

If a response ENCHANCES the original stimulus

A

POSITIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

26
Q
  • Includes most homeostatic control mechanisms

* Serves to maintain a ‘normal’ status of a variable

A

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

27
Q

• Correcting the damage/injury

A

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

28
Q

• Whenever a change occurs in a system, the change automatically causes a ____ to start, which reverses the original change and brings the system back to normal

A

corrective mechanism

29
Q

feedback loop that responds to bring levels (high or too low) back to normal

A

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK LOOP

30
Q

ORGANS WILL COORDINATE WITH THE DAMAGE:

A

Nervous system

Endocrine system

31
Q

t&cf were sends to the injured site (from Bone Marrow)

A

Thrombosis and Clothing Factor

32
Q

When will adrenal gland be stimulated?

A

abnormality or stressors

33
Q

2 CATECHOLAMINES

A

Epinephrine

Norepinephrine

34
Q

In adrenal glands, any will automatically be stimulated to tell the body there is something wrong?

A

Yes. Any stressors

35
Q

43
Q

GLUCOSE FROM THE FOOD THAT WE EAT CAN ONLY ENTER FROM ___

A

INSULIN

44
Q

If the glucose cannot enter the cell, it stays in the blood which called

(high blood sugar)

A

hyperglycemia

45
Q

(low blood sugar)

A

hypoglycemia

46
Q

Do not require continuous adjustments

Does not maintain homeostasis

A
