this establishes a set point around which a variable is maintained
What is the control center

this is the scientific discipline that investigates the structure of the body
What is anatomy

the serous membranes can become inflamed-usually as a result of infection. the three regions of inflammation are these
What is pericarditis inflammation of the pericardium. Pleurisy, inflammation of the pleura. Peritonitis, inflammation of the peritoneum.
300
these are the different realms of study of anatomy
What is systemic anatomy, regional anatomy, surface anatomy, and anatomical imaging

the function of a molecule is related intimately to its structure. For example; collagen molecules are strong, rope like fibers that give skin structural strength and flexibility. Through this unstoppable cycle the structure of collagen changes and the skin becomes fragile and is torn more easily.
What is age

these are the three components (and there definitions) to negative feedback mechanisms that maintain things like blood pressure
What is a receptor monitors the value of a variable, the control center establishes a set point around which the variable is maintained, an effector can change the value of the variable.

organs are often sectioned off to reveal their internal structure. This section is revealed when a cut is made across the long axis at other than a right angle.
What is the oblique section

this abdominal cavity would increase more in size during pregnancy
What is the uterus

this is the largest human organ
What is the skin

these are the six main functions of the human body
What is organization, metabolism, responsiveness, growth, development, and reproduction.
500
this is an example of harmful positive feedback
What is low blood sugar causes decreased blood flow to the heart. Heart is unable to pump enough blood to maintain blood pressure, blood flow to the cardiac muscle decreases. Thus the pumping of the heart decreases more and more as well as blood pressure.

THROUGH this view (emphasis on through) you would be able to see the skin, fat, hip muscle, femur, coxa, and thigh muscles
What is frontal

A bullet pierces a man in his torso.. the bullet penetrates the visceral pleura, the pleural cavity, and the parietal pleura. Next the parietal paricardeum, the pericardial cavity, and the visceral pericardium and reaches this organ.
What is the heart
