Homeostasis
100

when your internal temperature rises to a dangerously high level

Heat Stroke

100

when your internal temperature drops to a dangerously low level

Hypothermia

100

An important protein and hormone in the regulation of blood glucose

Insulin

100

the molecule which provides the body with energy through cellular respiration

glucose

100

If homeostasis is not achieved this occurs...

Death

200

2 responses to high body temp

Sweating, Vasodilation

200

2 responses to low body temp

Shivering, Vasoconstriction, Goosebumps

200

Produces insulin in order to regulate blood glucose levels in the body

Pancreas

200

An important protein and hormone in the regulation of blood glucose

Glucagon

200

The set point for internal body temperature (in celsius)

37 degrees celsius

300

the system which stimulates sweat glands

Nervous system

300

the other type of muscle movement that helps keep the body warm in addition to shivering

goosebumps

300

The two options in the body in which glucose can be utilized when insulin is released

Liver & Body Cells

300

Produces glucagon in order to regulate blood glucose levels in the body

Pancreas

300

The optimal range for Blood Glucose levels

90 - 130

400

The expansion of blood vessels to release heat to the external environment

Vasodilation

400

the narrowing of the blood vessels to retain heat

Vasoconstriction

400

The disease which is associated with high levels a blood glucose levels

Diabetes

400

The structure/molecule that glucose is broken down from in the liver

Glycogen

400

The control of body temperature and the concentration of sugar in the blood are all regulated by

Negative Feedback Loop

500

sweating, or putting a layer of water on your skin, is advantageous for the loss of body heat by this mechanism

Evaporation

500

The part of the brain that controls thermoregulation

Hypothalamus

500

Long-term storage site of glucose

Fat Cells

500

The type of diet which will force glucagon production

Low sugar, keto, carb-free

500

This is the other feedback loop we have studied so far that is related to our runner
