Processes for maintaining or restoring homeostasis are known as

homeostatic control mechanisms.

The impact of effector activity on sensors may be positive or negative. Therefore, homeostatic control mechanisms are categorized as

organs that are directly influenced by physiological variables or mechanisms.

The term glycoprotein, a combination of two words, tells you that the compound is made of _____, with _____ being the dominant component.

carbohydrate and protein; protein

The correct order of the phases of mitosis is:

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.

In intramembranous ossification, the process of appositional growth refers to the:

addition of an outside layer of osseous tissue on flat bones.
