    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

This is the systemic circulation of the heart. With every body system there are homeostatic imbalances and one for the cardiac system is heart failure. Heart failure on the left side can happen in two ways‚ systolic heart failure and diastolic heart failure. A systolic heart failure is when the left ventricle cannot contract normally‚ which

    Maintaining a normal body temperature is crucial for optimal health and is one important aspect of homeostasis. Homeostasis is the body’s ability to balance varying internal conditions within narrow limits despite a constantly changing outside environment (Marieb & Hoehn‚ 2016). When a person is subjected to stimuli‚ which is a change in the variable‚ such as cold weather‚ temperature sensitive receptors in a person’s skin called thermoreceptors‚ detect this change. The receptors then respond providing
