Homeostasis
Blood Glucose Regulation
Feedback Loops
Disease
Problems in Immune System
100
The ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment.
What is homeostasis!
100
An important protein and hormone in the regulation of blood glucose
What is insulin
100
The two types of feedback loops
What is Positive and Negative Feedback
100

This type of pathogen can be treated by antibiotics

What is bacteria?

100

When the immune system reacts to a harmless substance that enters the body 

What is an allergy

200
Disrupts homeostasis
What is disease or illness!
200
Lack of insulin function which causes elevated glucose levels in the bloodstream
What is diabetes
200
An INCREASE in one action causes an INCREASE in another
What is positive feedback
200

A small amount of weakened or dead microbes which cause the body to creates antibodies when injected

What is vaccine?

200

Immunosuppressants are given to these patients, so that the immune system does not attack a new organ 

What is a transplant patient

300

These cells in a plant, can open and close on dry days, to conserve water for the plant

What are guard cells?

300
Produces insulin in order to regulate blood glucose levels in the body
What is the pancreas (beta cells)
300

An example of positive and negative feedback

What is Positive Feedback- Childbirth

Negative Feedback- Increased heart and breathing rate during muscle activity, guard cell in a plant, and Blood Glucose Regulation

300

Part of the pathogen that triggers a response from the immune system

What is antigen?

300

This virus damages and weakens the immune system

What is AIDS

400

Enzymes, which speed up the rate of a chemical reaction, work best when the following three conditions are perfect.

What is pH, Temperature, and shape

400
The process of blood glucose regulation
What is glucose enters bloodstream, pancreas produces insulin, insulin connects with insulin receptors in cell membrane, glucose transport proteins pull glucose into the cell, glucose is absorbed into cell and used for cellular respiration
400

Most common feedback in the body

What is negative feedback

400

These cells surround and ingest pathogens, as well as produce antibodies.

What are white blood cells?

400

In an autoimmune disease, the immune system attacks familiar cells, because it fails to recognize its own

Antigens

500

If homeostasis is not achieved, it will eventually lead to...

What is death!

500
The feedback loop that regulates blood glucose level in blood
What is negative feedback
500

The control of body temperature, heart rate, and the concentration of sugar in the blood are all examples of

What is feedback mechanism

500

A disease in which some of the body's cells mutate and grow uncontrollably and spread to other parts of the body 

What is cancer?

500

During an allergic reaction, the bodies produces

What are histamines
