VERIFIED ANSWERS FULL REVIEW
●● Physiology
Answer: the study of the function of the body
●● Chemical level
Answer: represents the atoms and molecules that make up cells
(Consists of Atomic level and molecular level)
●● Cellular level
Answer: represents the basic unit of all living things
●● Tissue level
Answer: a group of cells with similar or common function
●● Organ level
Answer: a group of tissues with similar or common function
●● Organ system level
Answer: a group of organs with similar or common function
,●● Organismic level
Answer: the entire body consisting of the various organ systems.
●● Integumentary System
Answer: controls body temperature & protects body from environmental
hazards
●● Skeletal System
Answer: supports body, protects soft body parts, stores minerals, forms
blood cells
●● Muscular System
Answer: movement, support and produces heat
●● Nervous System
Answer: controls immediate responses to stimuli
●● Endocrine System
Answer: controls long-term responses in body
●● Cardiovascular System
Answer: internal transport of nutrients, wastes, oxygen, carbon dioxide
and cells
,●● Lymphatic & Immune Systems
Answer: defense, immunity and returns lost fluids to cardiovascular
system
●● Respiratory System
Answer: exchange of air and delivery of blood gases to/from tissues
●● Digestive System
Answer: ingestion, breakdown and absorption of food & elimination of
indigestible wastes
●● Urinary System
Answer: filtration of blood to maintain proper water and salt balance and
to eliminate waste products
●● Reproductive System
Answer: produces sex cells and hormones related to reproduction
●● homeostasis
Answer: condition in which body's internal environment remains within
certain narrow physiological limits
, ●● homeostatic regulation
Answer: adjustment of physiological system to maintain homeostasis
●● receptor
Answer: monitors change in controlled condition (stimulus) and sends
input to control center
●● control (integration) center
Answer: receives input from receptor & determines appropriate response
●● effector
Answer: cell or organ that receives information (output) from control
center and produces a response (effect)
●● interactions of a feedback system
Answer: stimulus -> receptor -> input (afferent pathway) -> control
center -> output (efferent pathway) -> response
●● positive feedback
Answer: the response by the effector to the initial change is to further
exaggerate the change. Example in labor contractions, the contraction of
the uterus forces the baby towards the birth canal, which
