Question | Answer |
---|---|
Define Anatomy & Physiology | Anatomy - The study of internal and external body structures and their physical relationship - ie. how muscle attaches to skeleton Physiology - the study of how living organisms preform their vital functions - ie. what causes a muscle to contract |

Describe Anatomical Position | Hands at your side, palms facing forward, feet together |
What is the difference between signs and symptoms? | Signs are objective - like a fever or something similar that is measurable Symptoms - subjective to the person - like tiredness or nausea |

Define Homeostasis | homeo - similar stasis - state of standing means the existence of a stable internal environment |
What are the 3 components of homeostatic regulation and what are their functions? | 1. Receptor - a sensor sensitive to a stimulus or enviro change 2. Control Center - receives and processes the info supplied by the receptor and sends out commands 3. Effector - a cell or organ that responds to commands of the control center |
What is the purpose of negative feedback? Give an example | An effector activated by the control center opposes, or negates, the original stimulus. An example of this would be sweating or shivering, the act of thermoregulation |
What is the purpose of positive feedback? Give an example | An initial stimulus produces a response that amplifies or enhances the original change in conditions, rather than opposing it. Blood clotting would be an example of a positive feedback loop. Damaged blood vessels release a chemical to begin clotting. |
