physiology
how an organism accomplishes actions
physiology is a combination of what sciences?
biology, chemistry, physics, anatomy
bloom’s revised the taxonomy for learning
remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, creating
1st critical equation
ATP <-> ADP + P + energy
2nd critical equation
glucose + O2 + ADP + P -> ATP + CO2 + H2O + heat
3rd critical equation
CO2 + H2O <-> HCO3- + H+
4th critical equation
PV = nRT
homeostasis (dynamic constancy)
relatively stable maintenance of a body parameter
set point (SP)
goal range
influences on set point
genetics, biorhythms, environment
steady state (SS)
maintaining at set point
homeostatic control system
interconnected components that work together to keep us at set point or maintain steady state
reactive -> response = ?
feedback
negative feedback
the system moves opposite of disturbances
positive feedback
continues in the direction of the disturbance
