Homeostasis is the maintenance of the relatively constant physiological state of the internal environment‚ the biological term meaning ‘same state’‚ is the control of the body’s internal conditions despite fluctuations in the external environment. Blood glucose refers to the sugar that is transported through the bloodstream to supply energy to all the cells in our bodies. Cells in the body need glucose for respiration through mitochondria‚ which produces ATP- the energy source for all processes of

Midwifery and Interprofessional Studies. With reference to acid-base balance explore the role of the respiratory system in maintaining blood pH? ‘We live and die at the cellular level’ (Reid‚ 2011). Homeostasis is crucial for normal cellular function. Acid-base homeostasis is the part of human homeostasis and refers to the balance between the production and elimination of H+ hydrogen ions (pH) within the body fluids (William‚ Simpkins‚ 2001‚ p.236). Metabolic reactions within the cells often produce

more than a few minutes if the blood pH drops or rise from the normal blood pH. If the blood pH is not in the normal blood pH‚ the person can fall sick and it might be harm to the person. The maintenance of blood pH is called acid-base homeostasis. Acid-base homeostasis is a complex synergy that involving lungs‚ kidneys and a buffer chemical in blood and blood cells. BACKGROUND A substance that has high concentration of hydrogen ion in solution is called acid and solution that has low concentration

There are two forms of homeostasis‚ positive feedback and negative feedback. The type of feedback which is most common is negative feedback. This works by making the levels that have changed return back to normal. Positive feedback is the least common type of feedback. This is where one component escalates to another which continues to escalate to another. In positive feedback the level of control the component does not return to normal straight away. Negative feedback is usually what happens inside

When it is cold outside and the temperature drops‚ your body thermo receptors detect the drop and send signals to the hypothalamus. Neurons also send signals to smooth the walls of the blood vessels to make them contract‚ which creates a narrowing in the blood vessel also known as “vasoconstriction”. What vasoconstriction

Essay Describe and evaluate the synaptic homeostasis model of sleep The synaptic homeostasis model of sleep (Tononi & Cirelli‚ 2003) explains memory consolidation as a by-product of synaptic downscaling that occurs during sleep. This essay will describe the synaptic homeostasis model of sleep and evaluate how valid its predictions are in the face of empirical research. According to this model‚ synaptic potentiation is associated with the homeostatic regulation of slow wave activity‚ which
