54
Q

Change in one physiological variable to counteract a change in another

A

Enantiostasis (allostasis)

55
Q

Homeostatic regulatory variable: optimal chemical or physical condition

A

Setpoint

56
Q

Homeostatic regulatory variable: actual current condition

A

Feedback information

57
Q

Homeostatic regulatory variable: discrepancy between setpoint and feedback

A

Error signal

58
Q

Homeostatic regulatory input: reduces or reverses activity of effector, reopens condition to setpoint (negative feedback, positive feedback, feedforward information)

A

Negative feedback

59
Q

Homeostatic regulatory input: amplifies activity of effector (negative feedback, positive feedback, feedforward information)

A

Positive feedback

60
Q

Homeostatic regulatory input: changes setpoint (negative feedback, positive feedback, feedforward information)

A

Feedforward information

61
Q

Feedback effector: opposes change in variable

A

Antagonistic control

62
Q

Evolution by natural selection (adaptation, acclimatization, acclimation)

A

Adaptation

63
Q

Physiological, biochemical, or anatomical change within an individual from chronic exposure to a new environment (adaptation, acclimatization, acclimation)

A

Acclimatization

64
Q

Process of change in response to a controlled environment variable (adaptation, acclimatization, acclimation)

A

Acclimation

65
Q

Non-homeostatic regulation

A

Rheostasis

66
Q

Changes setpoint temporarily, permanently, or cyclically (fever)

A

Reset system

67
Q

Examples of positive feedback system

A

Neuron action potentials, lactation, blood clotting, orgasms

68
Q

What neurotransmitter is released during childbirth

A

Oxytocin

69
Q

Better known as vicious cycle (which feedback)

A

Positive feedback

70
Q

Amount of energy an animal uses in a unit of time

A

Metabolic rate

71
Q

2 bioenergetic strategies used by animals : maintaining their body temperature at a certain level with heat generated by metabolism (endothermic, ectothermic)

A

Endothermic

72
Q

2 bioenergetic strategies used by animals: meaning they do not produce enough metabolic heat to have much effect on body temperature (endothermic, ectothermic)

A

Ectothermic

73
Q

The smaller the size of an endotherm, the greater the energy cost of maintaining a stable body temperature

A
74
Q

Metabolic rate at rest

A

Basal metabolic rate
Standard metabolic rate

75
Q

An ectotherm requires much less energy per kg than does an endotherm of equivalent size

A
76
Q

Positive feedback for Childbirth

A

Estrogen (induces oxytocin receptors)
Oxytocin stimulates uterus to contract and placenta to make prostaglandis (stimulate more uterine contractions)
