EXAM 2: BIOS 256 ANATOMY &
PHYSIOLOGY IV WITH LAB,
2025/2026 WITH
CORRECT/ACCURATE ANSWERS
Metabolism states
absorptive:
fed state
regulated by insulin
can end up with diabetes
postabsorptive state:
fasting state
regulated by glucagon, cortisol, and sympathetic ns
prevails in the late morning, late afternoon, and overnight
hypothermia
low body temperature can slow metabolism and cause death
hyperthermia
high body temp can disrupt coordination and metabolic pathways
causing death
urinary system
kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra
, homeostatic kidney functions
regulation of blood ionic composition: Na+, K+, Cl-
regulation of blood pH: H+, HCO3-
regulation of blood volume: H20
regulation of blood pressure
homeostatic kidney functions cont.
regulates blood osmolarity
produces hormones (calcitrol & erythropoietin)
excretion of metabolic wastes (drugs and toxins)
regulates blood glucose level
