When applied to muscles, is meant in a broad sense of pulling the ends together regardless of whether the cell actually gets shorter

The noncoding intron segments of the mRNA initially transcribed from a DNA gene are removed by a complicated process involving small structures

Molecules, in turn, often combine with other atoms and molecules to form larger and more complex chemicals

Fibrous connective tissue surrounding the muscle organ and lo-cated outside the epimysium and tendon

Normal reading or range of normal

Separates internal environment from external environment, providing stability of internal fluid volume

Supports and protects internal environment, allowing movement; stores minerals that can be moved into and out of internal fluid

Control center of the feedback loop. Often a discrete area of the brain, the integrator receives input from a homeostatic sensor.

When cold weather causes the body temperature to decrease, feedback information is relayed through the nerves to the “thermostat” in a part of the brain

Information regarding increased stretch is fed back to the brain, which triggers the pituitary gland to secrete a hormone

Term	Definition
Contractibility	When applied to muscles, is meant in a broad sense of pulling the ends together regardless of whether the cell actually gets shorter
Splicesomes	The noncoding intron segments of the mRNA initially transcribed from a DNA gene are removed by a complicated process involving small structures
Macromolecules	Molecules, in turn, often combine with other atoms and molecules to form larger and more complex chemicals
Fascia	Fibrous connective tissue surrounding the muscle organ and lo-cated outside the epimysium and tendon
Set Point	Normal reading or range of normal
Integumentary	Separates internal environment from external environment, providing stability of internal fluid volume
Skeletal	Supports and protects internal environment, allowing movement; stores minerals that can be moved into and out of internal fluid
Integrator	Control center of the feedback loop. Often a discrete area of the brain, the integrator receives input from a homeostatic sensor.
Hypothalamus	When cold weather causes the body temperature to decrease, feedback information is relayed through the nerves to the “thermostat” in a part of the brain
Oxytocin	Information regarding increased stretch is fed back to the brain, which triggers the pituitary gland to secrete a hormone
