Q

The Receptor component

A

detects changes

42

determines set point (normal) and appropriate response to deviations

43
Q

The effector

A

to respond to change

44
Q

Negative Feedback System

A

is common, reverse changes, results in fluctuations about set point. Example: control of body temperature

45
Q

Positive Feedback System

A

rare and change is increased, may be harmful example: lactation, blood clot formation

46
Q

Anatomical Position

A

erect stance, palms forward

47
