Answer 16

cell, special, systemic, pathological

Question 17

what is the organization of living organisms

Answer 17

atom, molecule/chemical, organelle, cell, tissue, organ, organ systems, organisms

Question 18

Homeostasis

Answer 18

process of maintaining a stable internal environment within the body

has a normal RANGE not fixed level

Question 19

what does disease mean (homeostasis)

Answer 19

failure to function within a normal range

Question 20

What are the mechanisms of homeostatic regulation

Answer 20

Intrinsic regulation
extrinsic regulation

Question 21

intrinsic regulation

Answer 21

automatic response in a cell tissue or organ

Question 22

extrinsic regulation

Answer 22

response controlled by endocrine and nervous systems

Question 23

parts of regulatory mechanism and job

Answer 23

receptor - receives the stimulus

center - process the signal, sends instructions

effector - carries out instructions

Question 24

negative feedback and examples

Answer 24

the response of the effector reverses the stimulus, stimulus reduces response

body temp
blood glucose level

Question 25

positive feedback and examples

Answer 25

the response of the effector reinforces the stimulus, stimulus increases response

blood clotting
oxytocin in labour

Question 26

system integration

Answer 26

systems work together to maintain homeostasis
