MEDI110 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Smooth Muscle Tissue, Metabolic Waste, Muscular System
Document Summary
Nervous system via electrical systems, rapid responses of the body are managed, and is responsible for the higher functions such as memory, consciousness and creativity. Via hormones in the blood, manages processes which are focused on duration rather than speed e. g metabolic activities and electrolyte balances. Obtains oxygen, and eliminates co2(g) to the external environment. Regulation og the body ph by removal of acid-forming co2(aq) Transportation go nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, waste , electrolytes and hormones within the body. Muscular system body movement and heat generation through muscle contractions, which is vital in body temperature regulation. Provides energy through anaerobic and aerobic pathways in cells. The nervous system and endocrine are primary control centres of the body. Neural control of movement, information processing, and exercise behaviours. Via electrical systems, rapid responses of the body are managed, and is responsible for the higher functions such as memory, consciousness and creativity.
