Maintaining equilibrium


homeostasis: stable internal environment

Ex.) internal body temperature(37°C = 98.6°F)

Ex.) constant blood-calcium levels (9-11mg of calcium per 100ml of blood)

Maintaining equilibrium


Homeostasis must be maintained for normal body functioning and to sustain life

• What do we need to balance?

-feedback loop system

Feedback System - vocabulary


stimulus: something that occurs, that signals an action (in reaction)

feedback: a signal that carries information



receptor (sensor): senses changes in environment and sends info to the:

control center: to figure out how to respond factor (too little or too much of something); maintenance needs are sent to the:

effector: initiates action (release of chemicals), needed to reach homeostasis



stimulus: external or internal event

receptor (sensor): a sensory organ

control center: chemicals are released to signal an action

effector: an organ that acts in response to a signal

feedback: chemicals that carries information

Feedback System – Example scenario


Asa's environment is changed when his taller, younger

sister presses her hand onto one of his shoulders. Asa's

standing body position is altered by this stimulus; he is

suddenly unbalanced from the weight. His nervous

system recognizes this change in his standing posture. A

chemical signal is sent from his nervous system to his

skeletal and muscular systems, to straighten the body

position and tighten the muscles. With this response, Asa

is able to maintain his balance.

Usually well-hydrated, Peter has not had a sip of water in

6 hours. His body is dehydrated. This low water content

in his body is detected by the hypothalamus. The

hypothalamus signals to the pancreas to create and

release the hormone vasopressin. This chemical travels to

the kidney, which tells the organ to reabsorb water from

the urine. This helps the body to conserve water, until

more fluids are consumed.

Aria walks by a locker, quickly and with out awareness

of her surroundings. She bumps her arm into the edge of

a locker door, and damages a blood vessel. She begins to

bleed. Platelets start to flow through this vessel have to

cling to the injured site. This sensor releases chemicals,

intended to attract more platelets. Platelets continue to

pile up (while releasing more signaling chemicals), until

a clot is formed.

POSITIVE FEEDBACK



Hadley is going into child birth. When the baby’s head

pushes against the walls of the uterus, her body senses

that labor is to begin. This pressure on the uterus causes

the body to release oxytocin, a hormone that intensifies

and speeds up contractions. Oxytocin is released into the

bloodtream, which travels back to the uterus. This

chemical is a signal that contractions should continue.

This feedback loop continues until the baby is born, until

there is no more pressure on the walls of the uterus.

Due to the cold environment, an external stimulus results in a

change in the internal conditions. When the body temperature

drops below 37 degrees Celsius, the brain detects the change. The

hypothalamus causes the secretion of a hormone through the

bloodstream. This chemical signals to the skin to constrict (tighten)

blood vessels. This mechanism is to allow the warmth of blood to

be retained deeper in the body. Less heat will be lost on the surface

of the skin. This cycle continues until the body warms back up to

37 degrees Celsius.

While parked at an intersection, Molly watches as the

driver next to her speeds away while texting. This driver

just misses a pedestrian crossing the street. This stressful

situation increases Molly’s blood pressure. Baroreceptors

in certain blood vessels pick up on this change to Molly’s

internal balance. The brain interprets this sensation and

sends chemical signals through nerve impulses, telling

the heart to slow down, to beat at a slower pace. This

brings Molly back to homeostasis.

Your stomach normally secretes a compound called pepsinogen

that is an inactive enzyme. When food is ingested, the

hypothalamus detects the addition of sugars into the body. The

hypothalamus, the main controller of the endocrine system,

releases gastrin, a hormone. This hormone communicates with the

stomach. Cells lining the stomach are told to secrete of

hydrochloric acid and pepsin. These enzymes help break down the

sugar molecules.

1. Draw the Feedback Loop structure on a piece of paper, and describe what is occurring, by filling in each box.

2. Physically perform your example in front of the class. As the action occurs, only one must explain what is happening. This narrator must use the following 5 vocabulary terms in the description:

stimulus, receptor, control center, effector, feedback

Homeostatic Imbalance


Maintaining Homeostasis


How do all your trillions of cells work together to maintain homeostasis?

They have a really good, really complicated communication (feedback loops) system

Maintaining Homeostasis


The body communicates through neural and hormonal control systems.

neural: brain and nerve sending messages.

hormonal: chemicals being sent throughout the body to tell cells what to do (usually also controlled by brain)

Feedback Mechanisms


• Two ways to do this:

1. Negative Feedback

2. Positive Feedback

Feedback Mechanisms


• Two ways to do this:

1. Negative Feedback –aims to

establish homeostasis

Positive Feedback - aims to

get a job done (fulfill a function)

Feedback Mechanisms


Negative feedback

• shuts off or reduces the intensity of the control center

• most control mechanisms are negative

Ex: household thermostat controls the heating of a house

Drawing a Feedback Mechanism

Slide 1.19a



Directions:

1. Draw a square, to represent the receptor. Label the receptor.

2. Draw 2 squares (1 above, 1 below the receptors), to represent the

effectors. Label the effectors.

The box above is the effector in a positive feedback system.

The box below is the effector in a negative feedback system.

3. Draw two sets of arrows, that travel from the receptor to the

effectors, and back to the receptor. Label the arrows toward the

effectors with the control system mechanism.

Sweat glands



Directions:

Draw a feedback mechanism diagram, using the example of how the

body maintains temperature equilibrium.

Example:

When the body is above 37 degrees Celsius, the hypothalamus

releases chemicals, signaling the sweat glands to release liquid. This

cools the body.

When the body is below 37 degrees Celsius, the hypothalamus

releases chemicals, signaling to the nervous to make muscles

contract. This generates heat, to warm the body.

Disease Versus Disorder


disease: illness characterized by a recognizable set of symptoms and signs

disorder: any abnormality of structure and function

Disease Versus Disorder


symptoms: subjective changes in body functions (not apparent to observer)

signs: objective changes in body functions (observable by others)

aging: process in which there is a progressive decline in the body’s ability to restore homeostasis

Section 1.4: Restate the Qs (6-8) on p10


1.4 Homeostasis: Maintaining Limits

Objectives:

Can I answer all of these by the end of my reading?

If yes, you have read well (active reading)

If no, re-read, change techniques:

Record/define vocab, draw images, watch videos



6. The types of disturbances that can act as stimuli

that initiate a feedback system are either internal or

external. For example, (external) intense heat, lack of

oxygen, social stresses, or (internal) blood glucose

levels (p8).



7. The negative and positive feedback systems are

similar because they are a cycle of events that functions

to continually monitor, evaluate, change, remonitor, and

reevaluate a condition in the body (p8).

The negative and positive feedback systems are

different. Negative feedback systems reverse a change

in the body’s controlled condition (homeostasis).

Positive feedback systems strengthen a change in the

body’s controlled condition.



8. Symptoms and signs of a disease may be contrasted.

A symptom is a change in body functions that are not

easily observed by another person (ex. headache, nausea).

A sign is a change in body functions that can be measured

by a clinician (ex. bleeding, fever).

diagnose: to distinguish one disease from another or

determining the nature of a disease; a diagnosis is typically

arrived at after the taking of a medical history and after a

physical examination.
