31 1-5 Homeostasis Homeostasis All body systems working together to maintain a stable internal environment Systems respond to external and internal changes to function within a normal range (body temperature, fluid balance) © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

32 1-5 Homeostasis Mechanisms of Regulation Autoregulation (intrinsic) Automatic response in a cell, tissue, or organ to some environmental change Extrinsic regulation Responses controlled by nervous and endocrine systems © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

33 1-5 Homeostasis Receptor Receives the stimulus Control Center Processes the signal and sends instructions Effector Carries out instructions © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

34 Figure 1-2 The Control of Room Temperature. RECEPTOR Thermometer Information affects Normal condition disturbed STIMULUS: Room temperature rises CONTROL CENTER (Thermostat) RESPONSE: Room temperature drops HOMEOSTASIS Normal room temperature Normal condition restored Sends commands to EFFECTOR Air conditioner turns on a 20  30  40  Air conditioner turns on Air conditioner turns off Set point Normal range Time 22 Room temperature (  C) b In response to input from a receptor (a thermometer), a thermostat (the control center) triggers an effector response (either an air conditioner or a heater) that restores normal temperature. In this case, when room tempera- ture rises above the set point, the thermostat turns on the air conditioner, and the temperature returns to normal. With this regulatory system, room temperature fluctuates around the set point, 22  C.

35 1-6 Negative and Positive Feedback The Role of Negative Feedback The response of the effector negates the stimulus Body is brought back into homeostasis Normal range is achieved © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

36 Figure 1-3 Negative Feedback: Control of Body Temperature. RECEPTORS Temperature sensors in skin and hypothalamus Information affects Normal temperature disturbed STIMULUS: Body temperature rises CONTROL CENTER RESPONSE: Increased heat loss, body temperature drops HOMEOSTASIS Normal body temperature Normal temperature restored Sends commands to EFFECTORS Sweat glands in skin increase secretion Blood vessels in skin dilate a Vessels dilate, sweating increases Normal range Time Body temperature (  C) b Thermoregulatory center in brain Vessels constrict, sweating decreases 37.2 Events in the regulation of body temperature, which are comparable to those shown in Figure 1–2. A control center in the brain (the hypothalamus) functions as a thermostat with a set point of 37  C. If body temperature exceeds 37.2  C, heat loss is increased through enhanced blood flow to the skin and increased sweating. The thermoregulatory center keeps body temperature fluctuat- ing within an acceptable range, usually between 36.7  C and 37.2  C. 37 36.7 Set point

37 1-6 Negative and Positive Feedback The Role of Positive Feedback The response of the effector increases change of the stimulus Body is moved away from homeostasis Normal range is lost Used to speed up processes © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

38 Figure 1-4 Positive Feedback: Blood Clotting. Chemicals Blood clot Clotting accelerates Positive feedback loop Damaged cells in the blood vessel wall release chemi- cals that begin the clotting process. The chemicals start chain reactions in which cells, cell fragments, and soluble proteins in the blood begin to form a clot. As clotting continues, each step releases chemicals that further accelerate the process. This escalating process is a positive feedback loop that ends with the formation of a blood clot, which patches the vessel wall and stops the bleeding.

39 1-6 Negative and Positive Feedback Systems Integration Systems work together to maintain homeostasis Homeostasis is a state of equilibrium Opposing forces are in balance Dynamic equilibrium — continual adaptation Physiological systems work to restore balance Failure results in disease or death © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

51 1-7 Anatomical Terminology Sectional Anatomy Planes and sections Plane: a three-dimensional axis Section: a slice parallel to a plane Used to visualize internal organization and structure Important in radiological techniques MRI PET CT © 2015 Pearson Education, Inc.

52 Figure 1-8 Sectional Planes. Frontal or coronal plane Midsagittal plane Plane is oriented parallel to long axis A frontal, or coronal, section separates anterior and posterior portions of the body. Coronal usually refers to sections passing through the skull. Directional term: frontally or coronally Frontal plane Plane is oriented parallel to long axis Sagittal plane Directional term: sagittally A sagittal section separates right and left portions. You examine a sagittal section, but you section sagittally. In a midsagittal section, the plane passes through the midline. It separates the body into equal right and left sides. A parasagittal section misses the midline. It separates the body into unequal right and left sides. Transverse plane (inferior view) Transverse, or horizontal, plane Plane is oriented perpendicular to long axis A transverse, or cross, section separates superior and inferior portions of the body. Directional term: transversely or horizontally

The attachment site, corresponding to the wrist of the hand, lies at the connection between the heart and major blood vessels. The width of the pericardial cavity is exaggerated here; normally the visceral and parietal layers are separated only by a thin layer of pericardial fluid. b
