1. Variable = choose 1 from list above

2. sensor/receptor =

3. control center =

4. effector(s) =

5. physiological response(s) =

B) Name at least 3 organ systems involved in regulating the variable that you chose and describe HOW each system is involved. Hint: use Chapter 9 covering the endocrine system as one of your references. NOTE: this question asks for the names & descriptions of 3 SYSTEMS (ex. cardiovascular system), not individual organs (ex. heart)

. II. A&P: The human body is capable of performing a variety of functions due to its complex structural organization (anatomy). Choose 2 human organs, ex. stomach, eye, triceps muscle, heart, etc. For each organ that you chose:

A) List 5 words which describe the organ's anatomy ~ such as shape, size, structure, color, location, texture, tissue composition and organization, solid/hollow, hard/soft ~ these are examples of anatomical (structural) descriptors; words that describe anatomy are usually adjectives

B) List at least 2 functions of each organ that you chose. Physiology includes what the organ does, why the body needs it, and the jobs achieved by that organ related to serving the body as a whole in order to maintain health ~ such as ability to contract, digest, secrete, communicate, regulate, transport, clean, protect, etc. ~ functions are usually verbs (action words)
