A condition NOT regulated by a negative feedback loop would be: - CORRECT
ANSWER - Childbirth
A transverse plane will cut a body or organ into - CORRECT ANSWER -
superior and inferior portions.
An embryonic stem cell undergoes to become a neuron. - CORRECT ANSWER
- differentiation
Choose the directional term that would make the following sentence correct. The
heart is to the liver. - CORRECT ANSWER - superior
Choose the directional term that would make the following sentence correct. The
sternum is to the heart.- CORRECT ANSWER - anterior
Describe a feedback system and list its general components. - CORRECT ANSWER
- A feedback loop is a cycle of events in which the status of the body condition is
monitored, evaluated and changed to maintain homeostasis. A feedback system
will include a receptor that detects stimuli, a control center that receives the input
from the receptor and generates an output, and an effector that receives the
output and produces a response.
Describe the anatomical position. - CORRECT ANSWER - In the anatomical
position, the subject stands erect facing the observer with the head level and the
, eyes facing forward. The feet are flat on the floor and directed forward and the
arms are at the sides with the palms turned forward.
Describe the differences between positive and negative feedback systems. -
CORRECT ANSWER - A positive feedback system will strengthen or reinforce a
change in one of the body's controlled conditions while a negative feedback system
will reverse a change in a controlled condition.
Discuss the importance of body fluids and which one is considered to be the body's
internal environment. - CORRECT ANSWER - An important aspect of
homeostasis is maintaining the volume and composition of body fluids, which are
dilute, watery solutions containing the dissolved substances needed to sustain life.
The fluid within cells is intracellular fluid (ICF) and the fluid found outside of cells is
extracellular fluid (ECF). The ECF consists of interstitial fluid, blood plasma, lymph,
cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, aqueous humor, and vitreous. The ECF called
interstitial fluid, which is the fluid found in the narrow spaces between cells and
tissues, is also known as the body's internal environment. This is due to the fact
that the proper functioning of body cells depends of precise regulation of the
composition of the interstitial fluid surrounding them.
