Question

Part A - Homeostasis Overview
Homeostasis is essential to body function. The parts of a homeostatic control system communicate and work togetheInput
connect each term to the appropriate sentence describing its function within a homeostatic control system.

Control center
Stimulus
Effector
Output
Response
Receptor

: provides the means for the control center's response to the stimulus
: monitors and responds to changes in the environment
: effector feeds back to reduce the effect of the stimulus and returns the variable to homeostatic level
: control center's information sent to the effector
: determines the level at which a variable is to be maintained and analyzes the input to determine the appropriate output
: sensory information sent to the control center
: produces a change in variabler to influence changes to maintain homeostasis levels.

Part B - Summary of Homeostatic Control
Now that you have studied the components of a homeostatic control system and their roles, it is time to put that knowledge to use. In this question, you will build a homeostatic control system.

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A: Connect each term to the appropriate sentence describing its function within a homeostatic control system.

Control center	: determines the level at which a variable is to be maintained and analyzes the input to determine the appropriate output
Stimulus	: produces a change in variabler to influence changes to maintain homeostasis levels.
Effector	: provides the means for the control center's response to the stimulus
Output	: control center's information sent to the effector
Response	: effector feeds back to reduce the effect of the stimulus and returns the variable to homeostatic level
Receptor	: monitors and responds to changes in the environment

Part B: Drag and drop the items below in the appropriate order to represent a negative feedback homeostatic control system for body temperature regulation.

1	Thermoreceptors detect body temperature
2	Brain processes temperature information
3	Brain sends message to muscles
4	Muscles shiver to produce heat
5	Body temperature rises

Part C: Match the following. Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

Ventral	9. anterior
Medial	6. toward the midline
Superior	1. above
Proximal	8. close to the origin of the body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Deep	4. internal
Dorsal	2. toward the backside of the body

Part D: Match the following. Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

Coxal	7. hip
Brachial	9. arm
Superior	1. above
Tarsal	2. ankle
Crural	6. calf
