I. Review A.Levels of Organization 1.Cells 2.Tissues a.Epithelial b.Connective c.Nervous d.Muscle 3.Organs 4.Organ Systems
3
I. Review B. Homeostasis 1.Maintaining a stable internal environment
4
I. Review B. Homeostasis 2.Negative feedback a.The original condition is canceled so conditions are returned to normal
5
I. Review B. Homeostasis 2.Negative feedback b.Steps 1) Receptor detects change 2) Control center (brain, spinal cord) evaluates the change 3) Effector corrects condition
6
RECEPTOR (e.g., free nerve ending in the skin) INTEGRATOR (such as the brain) EFFECTOR (a muscle or a gland) STIMULUS (input into the system) RESPONSE (system’s output) The response to the stimulus leads to change. The change is “fed back” to the receptor.
7
I. Review B. Homeostasis 3.Positive feedback a.An action intensifies a condition so that it is driven beyond normal limits b.Examples 1) labor contractions 2) lactation 3) sexual orgasm

19
II. Respiratory System C. Gas Exchange in Humans 9.Mechanism of Respiration (in and out of lungs) a.Air moves in and out of lungs by changing lung volume b.Air enters lungs when Lung volume increases when diaphragm and intercostal muscles contract Air pressure in lungs becomes less than outside body causing air to rush in
20
II. Respiratory System C. Gas Exchange in Humans 10.Control of Respiration a.Increased CO 2 in blood causes blood to become acidic b. Chemoreceptors in carotid arteries (supply O 2 to brain) monitor pH of blood Decreased pH = increased breathing Negative feedback
22
III. Circulatory System A. General Background 1.Function: transports nutrients, wastes and gases to and from cells 2.Single-celled organisms use their cell surface as a point of exchange with the outside environment.
23
A. General Background 3.Sponges, the simplest animals, use ciliary action to propel sea water
