What are the three levels of homeostatic control?

Receptors for sensing a stimulus and sending it to the control center, control center which receives the information compares it to a set point and sends a signal for the response, effectors receive the control center's signal and take action.

What is the importance of positive and negative feedback loops?

Negative feedback loops negate the initial change to keep the body within a narrow range for functionality, positive feedback loops increase the stimulus driving a process further.

How does the action of releasing energy from ATP work?

Hydrolysis, ATP is converted to ADP and a phosphate group. The energy released from hydrolysis is used for muscle contraction, phosphorylation, active transport, and chemical synthesis.

Role of structural vs functional proteins. What is an example of each?

Structural proteins, such as collagen, actin, and tubulin, provide form and support for cells and tissues. Functional proteins, such as enzymes, hemoglobin, and hormones, diverse action based roles in our biologic processes.

What are the 4 phases of mitosis?

Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

What is cellular respiration? Why is it important?

The process used to convert nutrients into energy for essential bodily functions. It is important because without it, energy would not be accessible to us for important life functions.

How does connective tissue establish the framework of the body?

Structural support from the skeleton, binding and connecting tendon and ligaments, protection from fibrous capsules and skeleton, cellular structure, exchange of nutrients and waste, and elasticity and flexibility for movement.

What are the 4 main tissue types, and roles?

Epithelial lines internal and external surfaces, connective binds, supports, and protects other tissues, muscle tissue for providing heat, movement, and protects other tissues, and nervous tissue transmits and processes electrical and chemical signals.

What is the function of bone marrow?

To produce red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, immune cells, and store fat.

5 homeostatic functions of bone are

Support the framework of the body, protect internal organs from injury, movement, mineral storage, and hematopoiesis.
