The  process  by  which  a  constant  ____________  environment  is  maintained  despite  changes  in  the  ____________  environment.

Homeostasis

Components of the homeostatic control system

The Wallenda Modelhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S90DnKM_j4Q

Variable?

Setpoint?

Monitor?

Coordinating Centre?

Regulator?

Dynamic  Equilibrium• Changes  can  occur  in  blood  glucose,  temperature,  blood  pressure  &  blood  pH

• BUT  they  stay  within  an  acceptable  range  to  sustain  life

How is homeostasis maintained??

Two feedback mechanisms

•  Change  in  conditions  triggers  response  

•  The  response  serves  to  _______  the  change  • Change  in  conditions  trigger  a  response• Response  serves  to  _________  the  change

What is the value?

Thermoregulation-­‐  We  want  to  maintain  an  optimal  range  of  _________  _________________  to  allow  our  cells  to  function  efficiently.
