Define Homeostasis | Steady state of body systems that all living organisms maintain |
What are feedback loops | Where the output of a circut is returned to the input |
Negative Feedback | Reverses a deviation from the set point. Maintains parameters within normal limits |
3 parts of Negative Feedback | Sensor; Control Center; Effector |
Sensor | monitors a physiological value and reports to the control center |
Control center | compares value to the normal range |
Effector | Causes a change to reverse the situation and return to normal range |
Positive feedback | Intensifies a change in the bodies physiological condition, rather than reversing it |
