Camponeschi - human body targets 1-4
Question | Answer |
---|---|
homeostasis | keeping the body's internal environment (insides) stable regardless of what is happening outside |
What are some examples of homeostasis | Keeping the body at the same internal temperature. Keeping the needed amount of water in the body. Keeping the needed amount of food/energy in the body. Preventing the entrance of bacteria and viruses. |
When you are cold (and about to be out of homeostasis), how does the body respond to maintain internal body temperature? | shivering of the muscles creates friction and generates heat keeping the body warm. |
when your body is getting low on energy (about to be out of homeostasis), how does the body respond? | You feel hungry, which encourages you to eat to help restore energy levels. |
What are the levels of organization of the human body (in order) | cells, tissue, organs, organ systems, whole body. |
How do cells relate to tissue? | one type of tissue is made of one type of cell working together doing one job. ex: muscle tissue is made of muscle cells. |
How is tissue related to organs? | several DIFFERENT types of tissue work together and make up one organ. ex: the heart is made of muscle tissue, connective tissue, nerve tissue, and epithelial tissue |
How are organs related to organ systems? | an organ system is made of many DIFFERENT organs working together to perform functions of the system. |
How are the levels of organization of the body related? | a smaller level makes up a larger level. the smaller levels work together to perform a task/s of the larger level |
