Q. What is homeostasis and how is it effected during training?
Asked by Jacob - Thu Nov 26 05:26:44 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Umm, well, homeostasis is the body's system of regulating it's internal environment to keep it in the right conditions. And I guess that while training it is affected by: The body getting hotter than it's normal temperature (37 degrees), which is recognised by the hypothalamus, which then sends messages to stimulate sweat glands, to help cool down the body, And I guess that during training, the body recognises that it is not getting enough oxygen to create energy, so it begins to respire anaerobically. I guess that that's homeostasis?

A. Dilation of capillary beds in the skin will allow more blood into them and will allow more heat to escape through the skin. Of course, sweat production leads to evaporation on the skin that will increase the rate of heat loss off of the skin.

A. Desert plants like to maintain a low level of transpiration to keep in water which can be scarce. To do this, desert plants often lower their surface area, by growing more circular (see 1st link below) and making their leaves much smaller. Other have stomata located mostly on the underside of their leaves where the shade keeps water from evaporating as fast. Also, stomata can be deeply embedded in the epidermis (leaf skin) to prevent water from evaporating as fast. Some plants have hair to maintain a vapor level to keep more water from evaporating. Also, some plants close their stomata during the day to prevent rapid loss under the intense sun. Some plants shed their leaves completely to avoid transpiration during very dry seasons.

What are some other examples of how feedback mechanisms help maintain homeostasis?
Q. Regulation of an organism's internal environment to maintain conditions suitable for its survival is called homeostasis. Homeostasis is a characteristic of life because it is a process that occurs in all living things. Living things also use internal feedback to respond to internal changes. For example, organisims must make constant adjustments to maintain the correct amount of water and minerals in their cells and the proper internal temperature. Without this ability to adjust to internal changes, organisms die. What are some other examples of how feedback mechanisms help maintain homeostasis?

A. Blood pressure. When blood pressure is low, your pituitary gland will release ADH which will increase water re-absorption in the kidney, leading to an increase in plasma levels and an increase in blood pressure. Blood pH is similar. Your body converts carbonic acid into bicarbonate all the time. H2CO3 <---> (H+) + (HCO3-). pH is a measure of hydrogen atoms in the blood. When there are too many hydrogen atoms in the blood, the bicarbonate will combine with the excess hydrogen atoms and form carbonic acid, lowering the free H+ atoms, and thus lowering the pH. This works either way. Hope this helps.

A. sweating causes the body to cool down when the bodies temperature is reaching dangerous levels. thirst cause the body to replace the fluid lost through sweating. deeper breathing means that you inhale more oxygen which the muscles need to work effectively. also gets rid of more co2 when we exhale. heart beats faster to get the oxygen to the muscles quicker. digestive system slows down so that the body can focus more on getting oxygen around the body. pain will be caused to slow you down if anything is not working efficiently to keep you exercising

A. An advantage of homeostatic regulation is that it allows an organism to function effectively in a broad range of environmental conditions. For example, ectotherms tend to become sluggish at low temperatures, whereas a co-located endotherm may be fully active. That thermal stability comes at a price since an automatic regulation system requires additional energy. One reason snakes may eat only once a week is that they use much less energy to maintain homeostasis. Most homeostatic regulation is controlled by the release of hormones into the bloodstream. However other regulatory processes rely on simple diffusion to maintain a balance. Homeostatic regulation extends far beyond the control of temperature. All animals also regulate their… [cont.]

If they are too cold they find a warm basking spot and the external temperature and sunlight heat their internal body temperature, if the snake is too hot they find a shady area or small pond and use the external temperatures to cool down their internal body temperature.

A. The excretory and pulmonary systems both remove wastes from the body and maintain safe levels of molecules. The pulmonary systems (respiratory and cardiac system) carries carbon dioxide rich blood to the lungs, where the carbon dioxide diffuses out and is exhaled from the body, and oxygen enters the bloodstream and is brought to the required cells. The excretory system "filters" blood (the kidneys are pretty complex), but basically the liquid portion of blood passes through the kidneys and good ions and water are reabsorbed, while urea, a nitrogenous waste from the breakdown of proteins, exits the body through the urine.

Q. I'm just wondering how we KNOW that single-celled organisms can respond to stimuli. I mean, how can you tell that an amoeba responds to stimuli? What kind of stimuli? And how could you tell if a human zygote responds to that same sort of stimuli? I dunno, it seems to me that ability to maintain homeostasis is the hardest characteristic of life to prove when it comes to single-celled organisms, like the zygote. Any proof, websites, or studies would be appreciated. Thanks. :]
