Select the statement(s) that accurately describe homeostasis. The body has the ability to detect change, activate mechanisms that oppose it, and maintain relatively stable internal conditions. The loss of homeostatic control can cause illness but cannot cause death. The internal state of the body is best described as a dynamic equilibrium in which there is a certain set point and conditions fluctuate slightly around this point. Internal conditions are absolutely constant and must not fluctuate within a range. A and C are correct A and D are correct

A and C are correct

Homeostasis is maintained by the nervous and cardiovascular systems. True False

False

Negative feedback is a self-amplifying chain of events that tend to produce rapid change in the body. True False

False

T or F In a negative feedback system, the body will respond to an increased blood glucose level by increasing blood glucose to an even higher level True False

Three common components of a feedback loop are a stimulus, an integrating (control) center, and an organ system. a stimulus, a receptor, and an integrating (control) center. a receptor, an integrating (control) center, and an effector. a receptor, an integrating (control) center, and an organ system.

A receptor, an integrating (control) center, and an effector

Deep

The phalanges are __________ to the metacarpals. distal superficial proximal lateral inferior

Distal

Feeling for swollen lymph nodes is an example of auscultation. True False

False

Homeostatic mechanisms: keep variables exactly at the set point help to keep a relatively constant internal environment in the body. help to keep a relatively constant internal environment in the body. is considered the cause of most diseases usually operate by positive feedback.

Help to keep a constant internal environment in the body

Your right foot is ______ to your right hand. medial lateral ipsilateral distal proximal

The visceral pleura: is the outer membrane on the surface of the lungs is the membrane lining the wall of the lung cavity is the outer membrane on the surface of the heart is the membrane lining the wall of the heart cavity

Is the outer membrane on the surface of the lungs

Blood glucose concentration rises after a meal and stimulates release of the hormone insulin. Insulin travels in the blood and stimulates body cells to uptake glucose from the bloodstream. This reduces blood glucose concentration. This is an example of positive feedback. negative feedback. dynamic equilibrium integration control.

Negative feedback

When body temperature rises, a center in the brain initiates physiological changes to decrease the body temperature. This is an example of disease positive feedback negative feedback a buffer system

Negative feedback
