Question
Answer
these six things define living things ...   show
🗑
1. Metabolism   show
🗑
2. Responsiveness   show
🗑
show includes motion of the whole body, individual organs, single cells, or even organelles within the cells.  
🗑
4. Growth   show
🗑
show is the change in a cell from unspecialized to specialized.  
🗑
6. Reproduction   show
🗑
C. An autopsy is   show
🗑
show It is a condition of equilibrium in the body’s internal environment produced by the ceaseless interplay of all the body’s regulatory processes.  
🗑
1. Homeostatic imbalances occur because   show
🗑
2. Homeostasis is regulated by   show
🗑
show detects changes and sends nerve impulses to counteract the disruption.  
🗑
b. The endocrine system in homeostasis   show
🗑
c. Nerve impulses vs. hormones, speed?   show
🗑
1. A feedback system is a   show
🗑
2. Any disruption that changes a controlled condition is called a   show
🗑
3. A feedback system consists of three basic components:   show
🗑
a. A receptor   show
🗑
show sets the range of accepted values. It then evaluates the input it receives from the receptors, and generates output commands when they are needed.  
🗑
show a body structure that receives output from the control center and produces a response or effect that changes the controlled condition.  
🗑
Example of negative feedback   show
🗑
show Childbirth: cervix stretched:stimulus. nerve cells in cervix:receptor. nerve impulses:imput.hypothalmus:controle center. release of oxytocin:output (pituitary gland). smooth muscles of uterus(effectors)to contract more forcefully (response). reinforced  
🗑
show aka nerve impulse is an example of a positive feedback loop.  
🗑
A. Disruption of homeostasis can lead to   show
🗑
B. Symptoms   show
🗑

🗑
show is any abnormality of structure or function. It is a general term.

show one that affects one part or a limited region of the body: “The infection caused by the cat bite is localized to the hand.”  
🗑
2. A systemic disease affects   show
🗑
show the art of distinguishing one disease from another or determining the nature of a disease.  
🗑
show generally determined after taking a medical history and performing a physical examination.  
🗑
2. Several noninvasive techniques are used clinically to assess certain aspects of body structure and function,they are:   show
🗑
show observing the body for any changes that deviate from normal  
🗑
b. Palpation   show
🗑
show listening to body sounds, often using a stethoscope  
🗑
d. Percussion   show
🗑
show measuring temperature, pulse, respiratory rate, and blood pressure  
🗑
B. Body fluids are primarily located within three different areas (or spaces)   show
🗑
show the space inside the cell. This fluid is called intracellular fluid (ICF)  
🗑
2. 2nd Space where fluid is found:   show
🗑
3. 3rd Space where fluid is found:   show
🗑
show  
🗑
show internal environment.  
🗑
