When you go outside on a hot summer day, your body temperature heats up above
the normal range. Receptors in your brain detect the change in body temperature.
The brain activates nerve cells that send messages to sweat glands, causing the body
temperature to fall as the sweat evaporates from the skin. What part of this feedback
loop is the stimulus?
a) Increased body temperature
b) Nerve cells
c) Brain
d) Sweat glands

a) Increased body temperature
Connective tissue can be classified based on the type of cells it contains. True or
False?
,Give this one a try later!
False; the type of matrix determines the type of connective tissue
Which of the following is a location for simple cuboidal epithelium?
a) Air sacs of the lungs
b) Ducts of the kidneys
c) Lining of the gallbladder
d) Surface of the tongue

b) Ducts of the kidneys
A mother breastfeeds her infant. As long as the baby suckles his mother's breast, the
mother's mammary glands produce milk. Suckling, the stimulus, increases milk
production, the response. This scenario is best described as:
a) Principle of complementarity of structure and function
b) A negative feedback loop
c) A positive feedback loop
d) Anatomical position

c) A positive feedback loop
What part of the neuron forms the nerve fiber?

The epidermis of the skin serves as a barrier to mechanical stress and protects us
from microorganisms. What tissue do you think forms the epidermis?
