BIOL 243 Chapter Notes - Chapter 1: Nasal Cavity, Negative Feedback, Trachea
Document Summary
Physiology depends on anatomy bc function reflects structure. What a structure can do depends on its form: how muscles shorten- physiology. Location of lungs- anatomy: cellular level, cell > tissue > organ > organism, bones and cartilage-skeletal system. Our body senses we"re dehydrated and it alerts our brain, causing us to drink fluids to rehydrate, thus reversing the original stimulus: positive feedback bc it enhances the original stimulus, which was a gathering of platelets. A platelet plug forming is what ends it: anatomical position is standing w/ feet spread apart and palms facing forward.
