6 Bones and Skeletal • Human skeleton is initially made up of cartilages and fibrous membranes as early supports – These are replaced by bone as we grow – The cartilages found in adults are in places where flexible skeletal tissue is needed Skeletal Cartilages • Contain no _______ ________ or ______‚ and consist mainly of water • Dense irregular connective tissue girdle of perichondrium (around the cartilage) contains blood vessels for nutrient delivery to cartilage – Nutrients

For example money‚ good grades. There are further three categorizations of motivation: • Homeostatic motives • Biogenic motives • Social Motives Homeostatic Motives: Homeostasis: The ability or tendency of an organism to maintain internal equilibrium by adjusting its physiological processes. For example‚ Sweating when internal temperature becomes excessive and shivering to produce heat. Homeostatic motives include hunger‚ thirst and respiration and these motives work to keep the body in balanced

Homeostasis: An Analogy Reginald Robinson BIO1000 Capella University The homeostatic mechanism that regulates body temperature is called hypothalamus. It senses when your body’s temperature is too hot or cold. When your body is too hot‚ the hypothalamus senses that a change needs to be made so to reverse the heating process‚ thus reducing the amount of blood that is being sent to that area. This same action will cool the body and return it to a normal temperature. The ways in which

Name and define the ten life processes that distinguish living from non-living things. 5. Specify the five environmental needs required for life. 6. Define the term homeostasis‚ and name the manner in which homeostatic mechanisms are regulated. Then provide an example of a homeostatic mechanism in humans‚ and explain it fully‚ by providing a diagram followed by a complete essay explanation. 7. Demonstrate what is meant by "anatomical position". 8. Define various directional terms (i.e.

these changes are referred to as stimuli as they are what stimulate the change in internal conditions. The body detects these changes with receptors which communicate signals to the hypothalamus in the brain which is the control centre for this homeostatic system. The hypothalamus responds to these signals by causing an effector to bring about an appropriate response which will keep the internal environment of an organism constant in the changing external environment. An example of homeostasis is

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
