physiology 1
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Form dictates | function |
| Molecules | most complex level |
| Nervous tissue | sends and receives info (communication) |
| All muscles | must contract |
| Epithelial tissue | boarder, allowing what can pass over (skin) |
| Gland | secrete molecules |
| Endocrine | hormonal and enters the blood stream (cant affect every cell in the body) |
| Exocrine | release a substance to the exterior of the body or into a cavity (won’t enter the blood stream) |
| Connective tissue cells | very few cells and lots of extracellular materials |
| connective tissues | fat, bone, cartilage, blood, tendons, and ligaments |
| Homeostasis | (most important) - constant internal changes but not big changes |
| Disease | the ability to maintain homeostasis |
| Negative feedback | when the input and the output are opposite |
| when you get hot, you sweat causing you to cool down | |
| Input | heat |
| Output | cool |
| Body has to be aware of the change | sensors |
| Sends orders to an effector | integrating center |
| Fever | your own immune system is causing the fever |
| When your immune system cannot destroy the virus you have | it’ll cause a fever |
| Your brain | sets your body temp |
| After the fever breaks | the infection has been destroyed |
| Antagonistic effectors | to things doing the opposite for the same reason |
| Example of antagonistic effectors | shivering and sweating (both trying to keep body temp normal) |
| Positive feedback | when the input and the output are the same (rare) |
| During child birth | (input- contractions, output- contractions) |
| Mosquito bite | (input- itches, output- itches after you scratch it) |
