- organization - metabolism - responsiveness - growth - development - reproduction
27
It refers to the existence of a stable or simply means "balance" internal environment despite fluctuations in the external and internal environment.
Homeostasis
28
What do you call the measures of body properties that may change in value?
Variables
29
6 examples of variables
``` body temp. rbc count platelet count heart rate blood pressure ```
30
It is the normal extent of increase or decreases around a set point
Normal range
31
It is the normal, average value of a variable
Setpoint
32
2 types of feedback mechanism
Negative Feedback | Positive Feedback
33
Which type of mechanism involves DEVIATION and | CORRECTION?
negative feedback
34
It detects the changes
receptor
35
it receives receptor signals
control center
36
directly causes a change in variable
effector
37
Usually occurs when the initial stimulus further stimulates the response
