Homeostasis Maintenance of internal stability; All organs are involved Maintenance of internal stability; All organs are involved Peak body function – young adulthood Peak body function – young adulthood Less efficient during late adulthood and old age Less efficient during late adulthood and old age Feedback loops are a control system Feedback loops are a control system Sensor – detects change Sensor – detects change Control center – receives information from sensor Control center – receives information from sensor Effector – has an effect on the condition Effector – has an effect on the condition

24. Restoring Body Temperature Sensor – nerve endings Sensor – nerve endings Control center – the brain Control center – the brain Effector – muscles Effector – muscles Nerve endings feed information to the brain. In response to a chill, the brain sends nerve signals to muscles that shiver. Shivering produces heat that increases the body temperature Nerve endings feed information to the brain. In response to a chill, the brain sends nerve signals to muscles that shiver. Shivering produces heat that increases the body temperature

25. Negative Feedback Loops Negative feedback loops – oppose a change Negative feedback loops – oppose a change Decreasing blood oxygen concentration caused by muscles using oxygen during exercise is counteracted by an increase in breathing to bring the blood oxygen levels back up to normal. Decreasing blood oxygen concentration caused by muscles using oxygen during exercise is counteracted by an increase in breathing to bring the blood oxygen levels back up to normal. Excretion of urine when volume of fluid in body is greater than normal Excretion of urine when volume of fluid in body is greater than normal Shivering to increase body temperature Shivering to increase body temperature

28. Positive Feedback Loops Positive feedback loops – amplify or reinforce a change; not common in the human body Positive feedback loops – amplify or reinforce a change; not common in the human body Before the birth of a baby, uterine contractions increase Before the birth of a baby, uterine contractions increase Blood clotting – increasingly rapid sticking together of platelets Blood clotting – increasingly rapid sticking together of platelets Drop in blood pressure to reduce blood loss Drop in blood pressure to reduce blood loss
