Define Homeostasis
Steady state of body systems that all living organisms maintain
What are feedback loops
Where the output of a circut is returned to the input
Negative Feedback
Reverses a deviation from the set point. Maintains parameters within normal limits
3 parts of Negative Feedback
Sensor; Control Center; Effector
Sensor
monitors a physiological value and reports to the control center
Control center
compares value to the normal range
Effector
Causes a change to reverse the situation and return to normal range
Positive feedback
Intensifies a change in the bodies physiological condition, rather than reversing it
Visceral Serous membrane
Lines the organs
Perietal Serous Membrane
Lines the walls of the body
