AQA GCSE Biology - B5 What is homeostasis? The regulation of conditions inside the body to maintain a stable internal environment in response to changes in both internal and external conditions What things do automatic control systems regulate? Body temperature, blood glucose level and water content What are the three main components that work together in automatic control systems? Receptors, coordination centres and effectors What does negative feedback do? When the level of some...

Medical oedema - ANS Medical term for fluid retention Sinusitis - ANS Sinus Infection Hyper-keratosis - ANS Excessive formation of Keratin Styes - ANS Inflamed swelling on the edge of an eyelid, caused by bacterial infection of the gland at the base of an eyelash. Neuralgia - ANS Connective tissue which supports neurones; does not transmit nerve impulses

negative tropisms - Answer-growth away from a stimulus Define homeostasis - Answer-Homeostasis is the regulation of internal conditions in the body. It is necessary to maintain optimal conditions for body functioning. These internal conditions can change as a result of processes within the body and as external conditions change. systems responsible for homeostasis - Answer-the nervous system - uses electrical impulses to communicate the endocrine system - uses chemical molecules to commun...
