Homeostasis Homies
The 2 types of feedbacks
What is negative and positive feedback
Toward the head
What is superior
Locomotion of muscles or substances
what is movement
Allows locomotion, maintains posture, produces heat
what is the muscular system
umbilical landmark
what is the bellybutton
The 3 control mechanisms of homeostasis
What is the receptor, control center and the effector
Toward or at the front of the body
what is anterior or ventral
Ability to sense changes and react
what is responsiveness
protects and supports body organs
provides muscle attachment for movement
site of blood cell formation
stores mineral
what is the skeletal system
cervical landmark
what is the neck
Child birth is what type of feedback
what is positive feedback
Away from the body surface
what is deep
production of future generation or new cells growing
what is reproduction
eliminates nitrogenous wastes
maintains acid-base balance
regulation of materials (water, electrolytes)
what is the urinary (excretory) system
thoracic landmark
what is the chest
Fever in response to pathogens in the body is an example of what type of feedback mechanism?
what is positive feedback
Away from the midline, toward the outer side
What is lateral
When cellular division is higher than apoptosis
what is growth
returns fluids to blood vessels
disposes of debris
involved in immunity-destroys bacteria and tumor cells
what is the lymphatic system
popliteal landmark
what is the back of the knee
If your body temperature is too cold, your blood vessels constrict and decrease blood flow which decreases heat loss. Random muscle movement leads to shivering which generates heat. If you are too hot then the blood vessels will dilate, increasing blood flow and increasing heat loss. Evaporation of sweat helps draw heat away from the body. This is an example of which type of feedback mechanism?
What is negative feedback
Close to the origin of the body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
what is proximal
ex) shoulder is proximal to the elbow
all chemical reactions in the body that provide energy
what is metabolism
forms external body covering
protects deeper tissue from injury and drying out
synthesizes vitamin D
location of cutaneous nerve receptors
what is the integumentary system
buccal landmark
what is the cheek
