    Worksheet 2 Homeostasis Answer Key

    Uploaded by

    Mohammed Amer
    The document contains a 12 question quiz about homeostasis. Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively stable internal conditions and involves negative feedback loops. Examples given include increased breathing in response to low oxygen levels returning to baseline once oxygen levels rise, and the release of insulin in response to high blood glucose levels. The cardiovascular system helps regulate hormones, nutrients, oxygen, blood volume and salt concentrations. Receptors detect changes while effectors respond through processes like increasing saliva production or regulating blood pressure. Positive feedback amplifies responses rather than reducing them. Physiology is the study of normal body function while anatomy examines structure. Plasma is the extracellular fluid component of blood.
