Differentiate between positive and negative feedback mechanisms. Explain how feedback mechanisms maintain homeostasis. Sweating due to hot weather Shivering due to cold weather HOMEOSTASIS! Homeostasis ability to maintain a relatively stable internal state that persists despite changes in the world outside Depends on the ability of the body to detect and oppose changes How does the body maintain homeostasis? Feedback Mechanisms! Feedback Mechanisms Stimulus detected by a physiological loop that brings the body either toward or away Sensor from the normal, steady state sends data can either be negative or positive Control feedback Center sends data Effector Negative Feedback Mechanisms “negates” the change keeps the variable within the normal range Cooling Down body temperature is greater Stimulus than 37 degrees sensors in skin detects the Sensor increase in temperature Control temperature regulatory center Center in brain (hypothalamus) triggers vasodilation and Effector diaphoresis Warming up body temperature is less Stimulus than 37 degrees sensors in skin detects the Sensor decrease in temperature Control temperature regulatory center Center in brain (hypothalamus) triggers vasoconstriction and Effector shivering Blood sugar levels Positive Feedback Mechanisms “promotes” change usually found in processes that needs to be pushed for completion Childbirth Head of the baby pushes against the cervix (increased Stimulus pressure) Nerve impulses sent from Sensor the cervix to the brain Control Brain stimulates the pituitary Center gland to produce oxytocin Oxytocin stimulates uterine Effector contractions (more pressure) Blood clotting Let’s Sum it Up! Homeostasis is the ability to maintain a relatively stable internal state. maintained by feedback mechanisms Let’s Sum it Up! Let’s check your understanding... It refers to the body’s ability to maintain a stable internal state Homeostasis Yes or no. Negative Feedback Mechanisms are harmful for our body. No! Do you think it is possible for the body to support changes that goes beyond the normal state? Yes! True or False. Positive Feedback Mechanisms pushes the body away from the normal. True LESSON #5: NERVOUS SYSTEM SCIENCE 10 QUARTER 3 MS. I. N. PANAGSAGAN LEARNING OBJECTIVES Determine the different functions of the nervous system Identify the names and function of the different organs that makes up the human nervous system Differentiate between the central and peripheral nervous system FUNCTIONS OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM Connects all body parts and transmits signals from one part to another Engaged with rapid, but short responses FUNCTIONS OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM Sends signals to and receives responses from every organ and tissue of the body PNS CNS Detected Stimulus by Receptors Sensory Neuron Brain Motor Response Effectors Neuron CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM Main processing center Consisted of the brain and the spinal cord Protected by two sets of bones: skull and vertebral column BRAIN Organizer and distributor of information Center of knowledge, emotions, learning and awareness CEREBRUM Also known as the forebrain Only part which carries on conscious thought processes Divided into left and right hemisphere Left Right Hemisphere Hemisphere CEREBRUM each hemisphere is divided into four lobes Four lobes: Temporal – hearing and recognize sounds Frontal – at work when you talk, move, reason out, plan, and solve problems CEREBRUM Occipital – vision Parietal– distinguish sensations (touch, pain, pressure, and temperature) CEREBELLUM Also known as the “little brain” Responsible for posture, balance, and motor coordination BRAIN STEM Found between the brain and the spinal cord Comprised of the hypothalamus, thalamus, pons, and medulla oblongata BRAIN STEM Hypothalamus – regulates body temperature, emotions, and sensations (thirst and hunger) - Controls homeostasis - Controls the pituitary gland BRAIN STEM Thalamus – serves as messenger (integrates sensory and motor impulses) Medulla Oblongata – regulates breathing and heartbeat Pons – connects cerebrum and Medulla oblongata Reflexes! SPINAL CORD Channel for signals Protected by the vertebral column Controls the reflexes Reflexes Detected Stimulus by Receptors Sensory Neuron Interneurons in the Spinal Cord Response Effectors Motor Neuron PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM Connects the CNS to the organs and limbs Contains the nerves that has sensory and motor fibers Two classifications: Somatic or Autonomic SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Controls the Voluntary movements of the body Spinal Nerves – Carry motor and sensory signals between spinal cord and body Cranial Nerves – carry information into and out of the brain stem - Control head, neck, and face AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM Controls the involuntary movements of the body (internal organs) Sympathetic– when body is under stress Increased heart rate and sweating Parasympathetic– restores the relaxed mode Decreased heart rate and sweating NERVE CELL Also called neuron Basic unit of the nervous system Specialized cell for the transmission of messages NERVE CELL Dendrites – receives messages from nearby neurons Axons – carry impulses away from the cell body (soma) Myelin Sheath – fatty insulating layer - Schwann Cells NERVE IMPULSES Electrochemical charge that travels at a speed of 120 m/s Can pass through the synapses Nerve Impulses LESSON #4: MENSTRUAL CYCLE Science 10 Quarter 3 I. N. Panagsagan Learning Goals: Describe the mechanisms involved in regulating the processes of menstrual cycle in the female reproductive system. Illustrate the events of the menstrual cycle if no fertilization occurs Arrange the events when fertilization occurs Menstrual Cycle Refers to the regular changes in the activities ovaries and endometrium which makes it possible for reproduction Usually takes about 28 days to complete Menstruation - Process in which blood and other tissues are shed from the uterus and materials are expelled from the vagina Menstrual Cycle 28 days Ovarian Cycle Uterine Cycle Ovarian Cycle Series of events wherein the ovaries prepare and release a mature ovum Controlled by the hormones from the pituitary gland which is controlled by the hypothalamus 2 phases: Follicular phase Luteal phase Uterine Cycle Series of events wherein the uterine lining is prepared for possible pregnancy Controlled by the estrogen and progesterone 3 phases: Menstrual phase Proliferative Secretory phase Follicular Phase Egg matures inside the follicle Follicular phase Concurrent with the menstruation (usually ends on day 5 to 7) and the proliferative phase (start of endometrium re-growth) of the uterine cycle On around day 10 to 13, the estrogen levels becomes so high that it will send signals to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to stop producing FSH Follicular Phase Egg matures inside the follicle Menstruation Endometrium is shed off Follicular Phase Egg matures inside the follicle Proliferative Phase Endometrium starts to thicken Proliferative phase (Uterine cycle) High level of Estrogen causes the: thickening of endometrial walls Growth of glands Emergence of spiral arteries at the basal layer Follicular Phase Egg matures inside the follicle Proliferative Phase Endometrium starts to thicken Ovulation Follicle burst to release matured egg Proliferative Phase Endometrium continue to thicken Ovulation Occurs on day 14 High levels of estrogen causes the FSH and LH levels to rise and then fall Unruptured follicles degenerate, and eggs are lost (estrogen decreases) Ovulation Follicle burst to release matured egg Proliferative Phase Endometrium continue to thicken Luteal Phase Follicle becomes corpus luteum/albicans Secretory Phase Endometrium releases mucus that are NOT inhabitable by sperm Luteal phase Concurrent with the secretory phase of the uterine cycle Remnant of the ovarian follicle become corpus luteum. Produce Progesterone Signal Pituitary to lessen LH and FSH Would decrease Estrogen Secretory phase (Uterine cycle) Influenced by progesterone Spiral arteries grow larger Uterine glands Secrete more mucus (eventually makes it inhospitable for sperm) Corpus luteum become corpus albicans (does not create hormones) Estrogen and Progesterone will decrease Generally...

N. Panagsagan Learning Objectives Describe the importance of endocrine systems in terms of the role it plays in the human body. Identify the major glands in the human body and their functions. Appreciate the importance of hormones by determining the effect of a particular hormone when regulated improperly. Roles and Functions of the Endocrine System Essential in regulating growth and development, metabolism, reproductive processes, and mood Regulates body activities by means of chemical messengers called hormones.
