1) Homeostasis is the condition in which the body maintains a. changing state, within an unlimited range.
b. an equilibrium point that can change over a narrow range that is compatible with maintaining life
c. an equilibrium change that balances external and internal environment such that values of each are equated
2) Anabolism is the a. breakdown of matter.
b. expulsion of matter.
c. synthesis of matter.
d. All of the answers are correct. 3) The sum of all chemical reactions that occur in the body is known as a. growth.
b. reproduction.
c. metabolism.
d. differentiation.
e. responsiveness. 4) Osmometer cells sense changes in the concentration of blood plasma; therefore, they must be
a. receptors.
b. control centers.
c. stimulators.
d. part of the cardiovascular system.
e. effectors.
5) cells in the brain sense an increase in the concentration of the blood plasma. They then notify the pituitary gland to release the hormone, ADH. This hormone causes the kidney to save water, which lowers the concentration of the plasma. ALL of the following are TRUE for this scenario EXCEPT: xxxxa. The kidney acts as an effector in this feedback loop.xxxxxxxxxxx true
b. The osmometer cells act as receptors in this feedback loop.?????
c. The stimulus in this feedback loop is an increase in the plasma concentration.xxxxxxxx true
d. The controlled condition regulated by this feedback loop is constant ADH secretion. ??? e. This is an example of a negative feedback loop.???? True? You are eating a hot fudge sundae. The pleasant taste information is sensed by your taste buds, which notify your brain. Your brain releases endorphins, which make you feel very good. You now associate the good feeling with hot fudge sundaes, so you eat another hot fudge sundae. Now you feel even better. Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding this scenario? a.
