1. Responsiveness, Growth, Re- 5 areas of life that work together to maintain homeostasis
production, Movement, Me-
tabolism
2. anatomy "cutting open"; structure
3. physiology another greek word; function
4. gross anatomy what can be seen and studied with the naked eye
5. microscopic anatomy use of microscopes, with limitations
6. chemical, cellular, tissue, or- levels of organization
gan, organ system, organism
7. homeostatic regulation the body's adjustments to changes that help preserve home-
ostasis
8. negative feedback a response to a stimulus "corrects" the situation
9. positive feedback stimulus produces a response that re-enforces that stimulus
10. integumentary system protects against environmental hazards; helps control body
temperature
11. nervous system directs immediate response to stimuli, usually by coordinating
the activities of other organ systems
12. digestive system processes food and absorbs nutrients
13. urinary system eliminates excess water, salts, and waste products
14. reproductive system produces sex cells and hormones
15. muscular system allows for locomotion; provides support; produces heat
