GROWTH
Physiology
Father of Modern Physiology
Claude Bernard (1813-1878)
observed that the internal environment remains remarkably constant despite changing conditions in the external environment.
Claude Bernard
An American physiologist that coined the term “Homeostasis” in 1932
Walter Cannon (1871-1945)
Stable internal environment
Homeostasis
Two types of Physiology
- Integration
- Homeostasis
Nutrients and oxygen
are distributed by the ___
Blood
Metabolic wastes are
eliminated by the _____
Urinary and Respiratory Systems
Binds together or supports cells, other tissues/organs
Connective Tissue
- Contracts on stimulation
- Movement, posture and heat production
Muscle (contractile) tissue
Conducts nerve impulses throughout the body
Nerve Tissue
- Covers all body surfaces; lines all cavities; forms glands
- Protective barrier against the environment
Epithelial Tissue
Major Organ Systems
- Integumentary
- Skeletal
- Muscular
- Circulatory
- Lymphatic
- Respiratory
- Digestive
- Urinary
- Reproductive
- Nervous
- Endocrine
- DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM
- INSPITE OF MULTIPLE
STIMULI - MAINTAINED BY
NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
HOMEOSTASIS
the ability to maintain a relatively
stable internal environment in an ever-changing
outside world
Homeostasis
The body is in a dynamic
state of equilibrium
The internal environment
interact to
maintain homeostasis
Chemical, thermal, and neural factors
Produces
change
in variable
Stimulus
Information
sent along
afferent
pathway to
Input
Information sent
along efferent
pathway
Output
Response of effector feeds back to influence magnitude of stimulus and returns variable to
Homeostasis
Regulation of
homeostasis is
accomplished
through _____ and _____
Nervous and Endocrine systems
DETECTS CHANGES (STIMULI)
IN THE BODY.
RECEPTOR
DETERMINES A SET
POINT FOR A NORMAL RANGE.
