The chemical level of an organization is

- composed of atoms and molecules - the simplest level of organization

The components associated with the homeostatic system are:

- effector - receptor - control center

Which body structures can serve as effectors?

- insulin secreting cells of pancreas - smooth muscles of bronchioles

Which of the following are characteristics of all living things?

- metabolism - growth and development - organization

Characteristics of all living things:

- reproduction - regulation of internal functions - responsiveness to stimuli

Which of the following statements correctly apply to homeostasis as a physiologic process?

- the control center is generally the nervous system or endocrine system - negative feedback typically keeps these processes in check - when homeostasis fails disease or even death occurs - these processes are dynamic

What are examples of negative feedback regulation?

-Changing breathing rate in response to an increase of CO2 -changes in blood pressure when exercising
