An example of a positive feedback loop is ____________.
Childbirth
Blood Pressure regulation
Body Temperature regulation
All of the above
Homeostasis
allows for a wildly fluctuating internal environment
is impossible in vertebrates
is the maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment and often incorporates a form of feedback regulation
When you get cut, your skin cells release hormones that signal platelets to come and stop the bleeding. Platelets then release more hormones that signal even more platelets to help stop bleeding. The hormone signals continue until the cut is closed. This is an example of what type of feedback?
Positive Feedback Response
Negative Feedback Loop
_____________ is released by your pancreas when blood glucose levels get too high.
glucose
glucagon
oxygen
insulin
When glucose levels in the blood rise, your brain sends a signal to your pancreas. The pancreas releases insulin, which opens channels in cell membranes to allow glucose to enter the cell, lowering blood sugar levels. This is an example of a:
Positive Feedback Loop
Negative Feedback Loop
In humans, the gases oxygen and carbon dioxide must be exchanged between the environment and cells. During this exchange, oxygen is delivered to the red blood cells so that they can function properly in the blood stream. Which two body systems are working together to achieve this goal?
Endocrine and Reproductive
Skeletal and Muscular
Respiratory and Circulatory
Digestive and Excretory
Negative feedback loops
amplify processes
prevent small changes from getting larger
are initiated during childbirth
are found only in plants

circulatory
digestive

excretory
How do nutrients, absorbed by the small intestine, travel to the individual cells of the human body?
nutrients move from the small intestines to liver, to lyhphatic system to body cells
small intestines force nutrients into kidneys, where they are dissolvged in fluids & used by body cells
body cells send nerve impulse indicating lack of nutrients to sm intestines and then sends nutrients back to cell
nutrients are absorbed by small intestines into blood stream & move through circulatory system to all cells
