APHY 201 Physiology Lecture Exam 1 2024 Questions and answers Themes in Physiology - Answer>>Homeostasis and Control System: how variables are regulated and monitored. Input-control-output; how the body systems work together to maintain a constant environment Biological Energy Use: where energy comes from and how it is used. Energy is the capacity to do work. • Chemical work-making or breaking of chemical bonds so cells and organisms grow, maintain suitable environment and store information for reproduction and other activities. • Transport work-moves ions, molecules • Mechanical work-movement (cilia, flagella, cytoskeleton) Structure-Function Relationship: how structure influences function — molecular interaction, division of body into discrete component, mechanical properties of cells, tissues and organs. • molecular interactions- chemical reactions, signals • functional compartmentation which allows for specialization (lysosome, large intestines) • mechanical properties - physical properties are direct result of anatomy, ie ability to stretch, be flexible, etc.
