SOLUTIONS
Physiology - ANSWER✔✔-How an organism works
Anatomy, Biology, Chemistry, Physics - ANSWER✔✔-Physiology is an integration of
ATP <--> ADP + Pi + energy - ANSWER✔✔-Equation 1
Glucose + O2 + ADP + Pi -> ATP + CO2 + H2O + heat - ANSWER✔✔-Equation 2
CO2 + H2O = HCO3- + H+ - ANSWER✔✔-Equation 3
Equation 3 - ANSWER✔✔-Aiding transport of a key gas, but creating a pH issue
Equation 3 - ANSWER✔✔-Not as common of an equation but is still critical because it gives us an
alternate way to make CO2 that doesn't like to move in our blood
PV=nRT - ANSWER✔✔-Equation 4
Equation 4 (PV=nRT) - ANSWER✔✔-Key equation for lungs, blood pressure
Homeostasis - ANSWER✔✔-Relatively stable maintenance of a body parameter

Dynamic Constancy - ANSWER✔✔-Movement to change homeostasis to
Homeostatic Control System - ANSWER✔✔-Set of interconnected components that are working together
to keep this parameter where it is supposed to be
Keep parameter at set point - ANSWER✔✔-Purpose of the homeostatic control system
Steady state - ANSWER✔✔-Parameter at set point
Steady state - ANSWER✔✔-Asks the questions: Have we achieved this goal? Are we at our target?
Steady state - ANSWER✔✔-If we are within the range of the set point we are in _____
not changing, energy - ANSWER✔✔-In steady state, system is ____, but ____ is being used
Equilibrium - ANSWER✔✔-_____ is NOT steady state
Feedback - ANSWER✔✔-Reactive disturbance
Negative feedback - ANSWER✔✔-Reaction opposite of disturbance direction
Negative feedback - ANSWER✔✔-More common reaction to maintain homeostasis
Negative feedback - ANSWER✔✔-Return toward SS/SP
Positive feedback - ANSWER✔✔-Reaction continuing in disturbance direction

Positive feedback - ANSWER✔✔-Move further from SS/SP
Feedforward - ANSWER✔✔-Proactive disturbance
Feedforward - ANSWER✔✔-Anticipating a disruption from our steady state and trying to avoid that
disruption
Feedforward - ANSWER✔✔-Limits the degree of feedback required when we do get placed out of SS
Feedforward - ANSWER✔✔-Less energy is required for this type of reaction
Feedforward - ANSWER✔✔-Biorhythms have a _____ component
Internal clock, environment - ANSWER✔✔-Biorhythms utilize an _____, which is not altered by the
_____
Adaptation, genetic change - ANSWER✔✔-Biorhythms have been developed through _____ and ____
_____
Acclimatization - ANSWER✔✔-the process in which an individual organism adjusts to a gradual change in
its environment allowing it to maintain performance across a range of environmental conditions
Acclimatization - ANSWER✔✔-How we as individuals adjust our biorhythms
Environment - ANSWER✔✔-We use the _____ to reset our internal clock and change our set point
