25
Detects the change; Monitors the environment and responds to change
Receptor
26
Two types of Path ways of the nerve impulses in the homeostatic control
Afferent and efferent pathways
27
A type of path way that Carry nerve impulses into the central nervous system
Afferent pathways
28
A type of pathways that Carry nerve impulses away from central nervous system to effectors
Efferent pathways
29
Information travels along the afferent pathways to the control center
Input
30
Determines the appropriate response and course of action Processes the stimulus received
Control center
31
Information sent from the control center travels down the efferent pathway to the effector
output
32
From the Effector; Balances out the original stimulus to maintain homeostasis
Response
33
A position where a person lying face up.
Supine position
34
Position where person lying face downward
prone position
35
Describe the anatomical position
``` Human standing erect with face directed forward arms hanging on the side and palms facing forward Thumbs point away from the body the feet slightly apart with toes pointing forward ```

49
Type of serous membrane that is in contact with the internal organs
Visceral membrane
50
Secreted by the serous membrane; it protects the organ against friction
