1. Explain in your own words why regulation is important. I would like you to use 2 examples, one from human communities and one from the human body in your explanation. Make sure to include how regulation is enabled in each case (i.e. how is communication occurring?).

I will give you an example, so that you know what I am looking for. When you drive a car and approach an intersection, you will receive a signal (communication) that tells you if it is okay to proceed or you must stop. At a lighted intersection, we all know that green means go and red means stop. If you ignore the signal or if there is no signal, cars would be crashing into each other and people could be injured or die. If there was no regulation of intersections throughout a city, chaos would ensue. Here is an interesting thing to consider in this situation: if you were unable to tell red from green (red/green colorblindness) and the red and green lights were randomly placed in the vertical sequence on the semaphore, imagine how confusing the incoming information could be!

For your example of regulation in the human body, describe what would happen if the receiving cell couldn't appropriately receive a signal or the sending cell couldn't appropriately send a signal. These problems lead to disease/homeostatic imbalance.

2. In order for an effector to respond to a command via either of the endocrine or nervous system, it must be able to respond to a chemical (hormone or neurotransmitter). Explain how the effector is able to respond to these chemical signals (i.e. what must it have either in its membrane or inside its cells). Describe how this process of intercellular communication exemplifies the relationship between structure and function.

regardless if weather it is neutral or hormonal pathway the target cell must have the appropriate

Describe the several different factors controlling the rate and velocity of blood flow through vessels. Also, explain how the heart and blood vessels assure one-way blood flow through the heart, lungs, and body.

1.) Predicting residual volume, rather than measuring it, likely increases the error in determining body density using hydrostatic weighing.

True or False

2.) An individual's loss of weight in water is directly proportional to the volume and weight of the water displaced by the body.

True or False

3.) Individuals with a higher body density will have more body fat.

True or False

4.) Hydrostatic weighing is considered the "gold standard" method of determining body composition because, when performed correctly, there is little to no error in the measurement of body fat.
