Summary: Assignment 3 Homeostasis - BTEC Applied Science - Unit 12 Physiology of Human Regulation and Reproduction *D AWARDED FOR UNIT*

BTEC LEVEL 3 APPLIED SCIENCE - UNIT 12 PHYSIOLOGY OF
HUMAN REGULATION AND REPRODUCTION SPEC (A3)

, Task Produce a Poster about homeostasis. Your poster must include:

I. A clear account of the main systems involved in homeostasis and how they
work
II. An explanation of what positive and negative feedback is giving examples
from the human body.

Using your knowledge of the nervous and endocrine system and how they interact
with each other produce a report that describes how malfunctions in homeostatic
mechanisms, including blood glucose control, temperature, and water regulation,
can lead to illness. You should discuss the effects of the disorders and how they
are rectified.

Please include annotated diagrams in your poster and your report to explain
points.
