Epithelial cells classification based on layer
Simple Stratified Pseudostratified
26
Which muscular tissue has cells that have no striations?
Smooth muscle
27
Which muscular tissue has cells that are involved in voluntary action
Skeletal muscle
28
Counterpart of hibernation for animals that sleep on summer
Estivation
29
State of decrease in activity or inactivity of organism
Torpor
30
Physiological organ system responsible for transporting gases, nutrients, and wastes
Circulatory system
31
Physiological organ system responsible for obtaining nutrients, water, and electrolytes
Digestive system
32
Physiological organ system responsible for regulating processes for duration
Endocrine system
33
Physiological organ system responsible for defending against foreign invaders
Immune system
34
Physiological organ system acting as a protective barrier
Integumentary system
35
Physiological organ system responsible for support, protect, and movement
Musculoskeletal system
36
Physiological organ system responsible for controling rapid response of the body
Nervous system
37
Physiological organ system responsible for perpetuation of the species
Reproductive system
38
Physiological organ system responsible for O2 and CO2, regulated pH
Respiratory system
39
An animal's size and shape, often called
Body plan or designs
40
The internal environment consists of materials outside of the cell, but inside of the body
41
How many % of the adult human body is fluid
60%
42
The internal environment of Vertebrates is called the
Interstitial fluid
43
Extracellular fluid is made up of
Interstitial fluid and plasma
44
He made the distinction between external environments surrounding an animal and the internal environment in which the cells of the animal actually live
Claude Bernard
45
Coined the term homeostasis -Sympathetic "flight or fight" response
Walter B. Canon
46
What cells produce glucagon
Alpha cells
47
What cells produce insulin
Beta cells
48
Factors affecting homeostasis
1. Amount of energy-rich molecule 2. O2 and CO2 concentration 3. Waste products 4. pH - acid/base balance 5. Water, salt, and electrolytes 6. Volume and pressure 7. Temperature 8. Social parameters
49
3 functional components of homeostasis control system
1. Receptor 2. Control center 3. Effector
50
The regulatory processes that maintain homeostasis in cells and multicellular organisms
Feedback control systems
51
Animal's internal changes parallel the external conditions
Conformers
52
Animal defend a relatively constant state
Regulators
53
Minimize internal variations by avoiding environmental disturbances
Avoiders
54
Change in one physiological variable to counteract a change in another
Enantiostasis (allostasis)
55
Homeostatic regulatory variable: optimal chemical or physical condition
Setpoint
56
Homeostatic regulatory variable: actual current condition
Feedback information
57
Homeostatic regulatory variable: discrepancy between setpoint and feedback
Error signal
58
Homeostatic regulatory input: reduces or reverses activity of effector, reopens condition to setpoint (negative feedback, positive feedback, feedforward information)
Negative feedback
59
Homeostatic regulatory input: amplifies activity of effector (negative feedback, positive feedback, feedforward information)
Positive feedback
60
Homeostatic regulatory input: changes setpoint (negative feedback, positive feedback, feedforward information)
Feedforward information
61
Feedback effector: opposes change in variable
Antagonistic control
62
Evolution by natural selection (adaptation, acclimatization, acclimation)
Adaptation
63
Physiological, biochemical, or anatomical change within an individual from chronic exposure to a new environment (adaptation, acclimatization, acclimation)
Acclimatization
64
Process of change in response to a controlled environment variable (adaptation, acclimatization, acclimation)
Acclimation
65
Non-homeostatic regulation
Rheostasis
66
Changes setpoint temporarily, permanently, or cyclically (fever)
Reset system
67
Examples of positive feedback system
Neuron action potentials, lactation, blood clotting, orgasms
68
What neurotransmitter is released during childbirth
Oxytocin
69
Better known as vicious cycle (which feedback)
Positive feedback
70
Amount of energy an animal uses in a unit of time
Metabolic rate
71
2 bioenergetic strategies used by animals : maintaining their body temperature at a certain level with heat generated by metabolism (endothermic, ectothermic)
Endothermic
72
2 bioenergetic strategies used by animals: meaning they do not produce enough metabolic heat to have much effect on body temperature (endothermic, ectothermic)
Ectothermic
73
The smaller the size of an endotherm, the greater the energy cost of maintaining a stable body temperature
74
Metabolic rate at rest
Basal metabolic rate Standard metabolic rate
75
An ectotherm requires much less energy per kg than does an endotherm of equivalent size
76
Positive feedback for Childbirth
Estrogen (induces oxytocin receptors) Oxytocin stimulates uterus to contract and placenta to make prostaglandis (stimulate more uterine contractions)
