115)Why must a normal body temperature be maintained in order for chemical reactions to be continued atlife-sustaining rates?Answer:If body temperature is too low, chemical reactions slow and eventually stop. If body temperature is toohigh, chemical reactions speed up and body proteins lose their normal shape, resulting in loss of function.116)What is the pathway between the receptor and the control center in the reflex pathway called?Answer:afferent pathway117)What type of homeostatic feedback reflex is the withdrawal reflex?Answer:negative118)Why are the abdominopelvic cavity organs the most vulnerable to blunt deceleration in an automobile accidentwith seat belts?Answer:The walls of the abdominal cavity are formed only by trunk muscles and are not reinforced by bone. Thepelvic organs receive a somewhat greater degree of protection from the bony pelvis.119)What is the action of all of the negative feedback mechanisms of the body?Answer:They provide a mechanism to maintain levels of substances within physiological limits.120)Which feedback mechanism causes the variable to deviate further and further from its original value or range?Answer:positive feedback121)What can happen when the usual negative feedback mechanisms are overwhelmed and destructive positivefeedback mechanisms take over?Answer:Homeostatic imbalances increase our risk for disease processes and produce the changes we associatewith aging.122)Which body system would be most affected by a lower than normal atmospheric pressure?Answer:respiratory system123)Describe the overlap in function between the cardiovascular system and respiratory system. In other words,describe how they work together.Answer:The blood is provided a consistent supply of oxygen from the lungs while the circulatory system deliverscarbon dioxide which will be removed from the body by the respiratory system.124)Describe the overlap in function between the muscular system and skeletal system. In other words, describehow they work together.Answer:The skeleton provides the ridged frame work (levers) for muscles to attach to. Muscles provide the forceto move the bones about the joints.125)The integumentary system helps to maintain a boundary between the internal and external environment. Givean example of something that is prevented entry to the body and an example of something prevented fromescaping the body by the integumentary system.Answer:The integument prevents entry of pathogens (germs, viruses, bacteria) OR harmful chemicals. Theintegumentary system prevents water (body fluid) loss.126)Describe the opposing ways that the muscular system and integumentary system act as effectors in theregulation of body temperature.Answer:The integument cools the body through sweat while the muscular system warms the body by shivering.13

ESSAY. Write your answer in the space provided or on a separate sheet of paper.127)A small family was traveling in its van and had a minor accident. The children in the back seats were wearinglap belts, but still sustained numerous bruises about the abdomen, and had some internal organ injuries. Why isthis area more vulnerable to damage than others?Answer:The abdominal organs are the least protected in the body because they are not surrounded by a bonycovering such as the ribs, pelvis, or cranium.128)Steve was injured in a football accident. X-ray examination showed a fracture underlying his left brachialdeformity. What part of his body was injured?Answer:His left upper arm129)Judy is 16 years old and collapses on the gym floor with severe pain in her chest wall every time she takes adeep breath. She is rushed by ambulance to the emergency room. Judy is diagnosed with pleurisy and is givenan anti-inflammatory drug through the intravenous route. Explain why an anti-inflammatory drug would beprescribed for someone with pleurisy.Answer:The pleural space contains a small amount of fluid that acts as a lubricant, allowing the pleurae to slidesmoothly over each other as the lungs expand and contract. Pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleuraaround the lungs. When inflammation occurs in the pleural space, the pleurae do not slide smoothly andthis causes severe pain that is more directly transmitted by the parietal than the visceral pleura.130)Sara is giving birth to her first child. She is concerned that her labor is taking longer than she thought it would.Why does giving birth usually take time for the contractions to proceed to the point when the child is born?Answer:Childbirth is based on the increasing levels of oxytocin that cause the uterine contractions. Under positivefeedback, oxytocin levels increase which results in increasing strong contractions by the upper uterus thatwill ultimately result in the birth of the child. But this positive feedback needs numerous contractioncycles to overcome the muscular resistance to stretching in the lower uterus in order for the head to pass.131)The nurse charted: "Patient has an open wound located on lateral aspect of leg." Describe where the wound islocated.Answer:The wound is located on the outer side of the leg, the peroneal or fibular area.14
