Study Notes
Homeostasis
- Maintains constant internal conditions in the body.
- Involves dynamic equilibrium, adjusting to internal and external changes.
- Aims to maintain stability around a set point despite normal fluctuations.
-
Negative Feedback:
- Mechanism that reverses change in a regulated variable to restore set point.
- Essential for maintaining homeostasis (e.g., body temperature regulation).
-
Positive Feedback:
- Mechanism that amplifies a change in a variable to promote rapid adjustments.
- Useful in scenarios like platelet plug formation in response to injury.
Cellular Respiration
- Cells perform this process to generate ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
- Requires oxygen (O2) and produces carbon dioxide (CO2).
- Respiratory and circulatory systems collaborate to supply O2 and eliminate CO2.
- O2 diffuses from lung air sacs into the blood, then to cells for use.
- CO2 moves from cells to the blood, then to the lungs for exhalation.
Negative Feedback Regulation in Respiration
- Ensures adequate delivery of O2 to cells for respiration.
- Maintains CO2 removal to prevent harmful accumulation; increased levels stimulate heightened breathing.
Recovery Time Post-Exercise
- Defined as the duration from exercise cessation to the return of the pulse rate to resting levels.
- Reflects physiological changes distinct from exercising or resting states.
- Beneficial cardiovascular adaptations occur during recovery, which can take minutes to hours.
- Variability in recovery processes influenced by individual training status (trained vs. untrained), fatigue, and stress management capabilities.
