The adaptation of archaea in acidic condition. How archaea adapt to acidic environment ? Use variety pH homeostatic mechanism that involve restricting proton entry by cytoplasmic membrane and purging of protons and their effect by cytoplasm. pH homeostatic mechanisms The cell membrane is highly impermeable to protons Membrane channel have a reduced pore size. Protein influx inhibited by chemiosmotic gradient Excess proton pumped out of the cell Cytoplasmic buffering helps to maintain

this‚ it must maintain a certain blood pressure within the body to overcome gravity and orthostatic changes. If the body did not keep a certain pressure‚ distal cells and organs would not be able to receive a constant blood supply and cause a homeostatic imbalance. This experiment will show the possible changes in blood pressure due to gravity and orthostatic changes‚ but first‚ what is blood pressure and why is it important? Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against a unit area of the blood

system falls out of balance. In the worst cases‚ it fails completely. With the simulation of the fictional patient‚ if the body did not stay at a homeostatic state‚ then the patient either gained weight or lost weight. In both cases‚ the patient died. No matter the age or size of the patient‚ it was always possible for the patient to reach a homeostatic state. To reach this state‚ the patient either had to eat less or do more physical activity. Just by taking some basic steps‚ the body helped maintain

Eating Disorders Eating disorders are characterized by severe disturbances in eating behavior. (Strada 2001) An eating disorder can be viewed as normal by the affected person. Just as an alcoholic uses alcohol to avoid or deal with their problems‚ a person with an eating disorder can use eating‚ purging or not eating food to deal with their problems. Some of the problems that are associated with an eating disorder include low self esteem‚ depression‚ feelings of loss of control‚ feelings of worthlessness

cells. Extreme water loss is also evident due to Mark’s lack of visible sweat. Hyperthermia has caused Mark’s heat loss process to become ineffective. In the extreme heat conditions‚ the heat stroke causes the skin to become hot and dry. Mark’s dehydration and heat stroke made it so that his body cannot produce sweat. (Mario) Question 2. Why didn’t the paramedic give Mark bottled water or distilled water rather than an electrolyte/glucose solution and what is an isotonic solution?

CORE ONE: MAINTAINING A BALANCE • IDENTIFY THE ROLE OF ENZYMES IN METABOLISM‚ DESCRIBE THEIR CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND USE A SIMPLE MODEL TO DEMOSTRATE THEIR SPECIFITY ON SUBSTRATES. Enzymes are biological catalysts this means that they lower the energy required to start a chemical reaction within a cell but don’t get used up by that reaction. Every reaction and process in the metabolism of the cell is controlled by a specific enzyme. Enzymes are globular proteins whose shapes are specialised

Chapter 1 Overview Notes: You are to read the text’s chapter and look through the Powerpoint notes on Blackboard as well. Anatomy literally means “to cut” – tomy and “apart” – ana‚ since in the early days anatomists used cadavers to cut apart and see inside. Physiology literally means the “study of nature” so we study the nature or functions of the body systems. We have to understand that the structure of any body part – muscle cell contracts the organ‚ protein fibers contract the muscle

difficult to survive in a given environment‚ humans would be able to adapt as their bodily systems are constantly balancing and changing to their adaptations. A reproduction advantage also links in to this as well. Thermoregulation as well as all homeostatic processes allow the body to constantly deal with change‚ by means of a ‘balancing act’. Over time‚ if these are able to continue‚ “an organism is able to inhabit a wider range of habitats and reproduce more successfully to maintain population.”
