B5 homeostasis and response - Coggle Diagram
B5 homeostasis and response
what is it
the maintenance of a constant internal environment. E.g. regulates the cell and its functions and the body temperature.
what dose it do
Regulates the internal conditions of the cell or the organism to maintain optimal conditions for the reaction to happen.
how dose it work
It goes from the receptor (cells,tissues,or organisms) to the control centre(travels up the spine into the brain) then back to the effector(cells tissues and organisms).
what do they affect or do
They detect any change. E.g temperature(too hot makes you sweat / too cold, you get goosebumps and shiver.)
why do we need it
So our body can detect any issues with the body on the inside so it can fix itself and go back to its normal working limits.
nervous system
what dose it do
enables humans to react to their surroundings and to coordinate their behaviour e.g move hand if surface is to hot
what is it
it a big network inside the human and animal body that reacts to any pain , temperature change or any not normal reactions inside the body
how dose it work
send messages from various parts of your body to your brain, and from your brain back out to your body to tell your body what to do
what dose it affect
controls many aspects of what you think, how you feel and what your body does
why do we need it
so it can tell us if there is any issues with the inside of the body or if you are ill, it is how you also feel things with your hands ( 1000ens of nerves in your thinger tips)
synapses and reflexes
what is it
a synapses is the joining of nerves to send signals straight to the brain and the reflex is the brain sending the signal back to the muscle to move said body part
how dose it work
it works by the nerve or the receptor sending a electronic signal to the brain witch then the brain sends the signal back in response but to the muscle to move away from said danger
what do they affect
every muscle in the human body
why do we need nerves
to keep the human or animal body from hurting it self or putting its self in any further pain/danger
reaction time
what is an reaction time
the time it takes for you to realise something has happened or when you need to move very quickly out of that space
online test/ when the red lights go out you press a button but you don't know when it will happen
things that can affect is are sleep , age, what you eat , what you drink , how much caffeine you've had
the eyes detect the movement and sends a signal to the brain to move and the brain sends the signal to the leg muscles to move
the Endocrine system
what dose it do
it makes a lot of chemicals called hormones and then passes them straight into the blood stream
is it important
it helps control all growth , mood and development in the way our organs work , metabolism , and reproduction
how dose it work
it makes a lot of different types of chemicals for different needs .e.g. Adrenaline / fight or flight , mood
what dose it affect
its how we feel emotions and how we survive and develop
what is it
its a big network of glands
controlling blood glucose
how dose it work
by going to the different parts of the body to give of energy to word efficiently and effectively
what dose it do
controls how much sugar goes to the muscles and the other important parts of the body
is it important
if it isent controlled you can get type 2 diabetes or your muscles stop working effectively
what dose it affect
all parts of the body
what is it
controlling glucose in the body is the same as saying controlling how much sugar is needed to do to different parts of the body
adrenaline and thyroxine
how dose it work
the eyes pick up the danger and sends the signal to the brain witch then sees it and sends a signal to the endocrine system and it produces adrenaline and when it dose the human body becomes stranger , faster , and vision becomes better (super human )
is it inportent
it can be the possibility between life and death
what dose it do
it keeps the body safe from any harmful or dangerous threats from other things like a fight of an alligator
what dose it affect
the way you see things and the way you think if you will need to fight it out or run away
what is it
adrenaline is the fight of flight hormone witch is realised in situations that could end up in a fight or running away and it is realised by the endocrine system
how dose it work
controls the metabolism of the body
is it importent
it controls how your heart and muscles work, brain development and bone health.
what dose it do
controls how much energy your body uses
what dose it affect
hart , bone , development , metabolism , brain , muscle
what is it
the thyroxine is a gland in the neck that controls metabolisem
how fast your food digests
