What process allows us to adjust to either extreme heat or extreme
cold? - ANSWERS-Negative feedback mechanisms allow us to adjust to
conditions outside the normal temperature range by causing heat to be
lost from the body and retained or generated by the body.
When we begin to get dehydrated, we usually get thirsty, which causes
us to drink fluids. Is thirst part of a negative or a positive feedback
control system? - ANSWERS-thirst is part of a neg. feedback control
system because it prods us to drink which ends the thirst stimulus and
returns body fluid volume to the normal range
Why is the formation of platelet plug called positive feedback? What
event ends it? - ANSWERS-This is a pos. feedback mechanism because
it enhances the change set into motion by the stimulus. The response
ends when the platelet plug has plugged the hole in the blood vessel.
The two fundamental divisions of our body - ANSWERS-Axial part -
head, neck and trunk. Appendicular part- appendages or limbs
