Stimuli and Response
We will know living organism must maintain balanced stable system by reading our books
S- List at least 5 things that all living things have in common.

15. E – fight or flight
Fight or flight is a response that allows organisms to respond to dangerous situations.
Describe one situation in which an organism would fight and one where its response would be to flee.

16. S- place these in order from smallest to largest:
Stimuli Edu
We will know living organism must maintain balanced stable system by using edusmart
S- place these in order from smallest to largest:
Organs Tissue cell Organism Organ system

17. P- Define the following in your own words: Homeostasis Stimuli
Response
(13) Organisms and environments. The student knows that a living organism must be able to maintain balance in stable internal conditions in response to external and internal stimuli. The student is expected to:
(A) investigate how organisms respond to external stimuli found in the environment such as phototropism and fight or flight; and
(B) describe and relate responses in organisms that may result from internal stimuli such as wilting in plants and fever or vomiting in animals that allow them to maintain balance.

18. A- Take your own notes you may use them on the quiz C- Quiz E- Explain why vomiting and having a fever can be a good thing. Use complete sentences.

19. 11.19.13 stimuli and response Lab
We will describe how plants respond to stimuli by completing lab.
S- DRAW and Describe these combinations as elements or compounds or mixtures. Justify your answer. A B C

20. P- Title: Which sensory is faster?
Purpose: We will determine if our sight or touch will respond faster to a stimulus.
Research: (Record notes from Edusmart)
Hypothesis: If I use the sensory ____(sight or touch), then I will respond faster to the dropping ruler because…

21. A
Procedures:
Place the ruler just above your partners thumb and forefinger. (the zero end should be closest to your partner’s hand)
Drop the ruler, record the number your partner catches the ruler at. Record in the data chart
Repeat dropping the ruler this time start with the ruler touching on of the fingers. Record your data.
Data Chart:

22. C- create a bar graph of your data
C- create a bar graph of your data. Be sure to label your axis with independent and dependent variables. E- Write a conclusion to your lab. Include: 1. what did you do? 2. What did you observe? 3. what can you learn from your graph? 4. was your hypothesis valid or invalid? Explain!

23. Stimuli Reading
We will know living organism must maintain balanced stable system by completing reading and activities
S- Draw and label the type of cell and some of the organelles (only the ones that are missing) .
Type of cell:
Type of cell:

24. P- While you read complete the following
Give 4 examples of homeostasis
Complete the chart
Internal Stimuli
External Stimuli

25. A/C- Create a graphic organizer to help you remember what you read about how both plants and animals respond to stimuli. Be prepared to present to the class!
E- Draw a picture of how your body maintains homeostasis. Then explain your picture using your vocabulary words!

26. 11.21.13 Homeostasis Video S- Use the graph to answer
What is the independent variable?
What two things are being measured?
What is the average temperature for September?
What is the average rain fall for June?

27. P- Explain how stimuli and response are the mechanisms that maintain homeostasis in an organism. Be sure to give an example.
(13) Organisms and environments. The student knows that a living organism must be able to maintain balance in stable internal conditions in response to external and internal stimuli. The student is expected to:
(A) investigate how organisms respond to external stimuli found in the environment such as phototropism and fight or flight; and
(B) describe and relate responses in organisms that may result from internal stimuli such as wilting in plants and fever or vomiting in animals that allow them to maintain balance.

28. A- take your own notes there is a quiz at the end! C- Quiz

29. Blood-glucose level (mg/1000 mL)
E- The table shows the results of a series of hourly blood-glucose tests. When the glucose level in the blood is high, such as after a meal, the pancreas releases the hormone insulin into the blood. The insulin then signals the liver to take the glucose from the blood. How much did blood-glucose levels decrease from 1 PM and 5 Pm in mb/1000 mL. What was the average blood-glucose level?
Time tested
