Biological systems react to stimuli, for example hot conditions. The reaction starts with sensors, followed by controls, and then effectors. Label the components of a body temperature feedback loop according to this basic model. DRAG & DROP THE ANSWER sweat glands throughout body temperature regulatory center in brain nerve cells in skin and brain Body temperature exceeds 37°C

Step 1
Step 1: Understand the biological feedback loop model that consists of three main components: sensors (which detect stimuli), controls (which process information and determine responses), and effectors (which carry out actions). Show more…

Homeostasis Feedback: Modeling Thermoregulation Normal Thermoregulation 1. Draw an outline of the human body. 2. Label locations and examples of all the organs involved in short-term (minutes, not days or weeks) temperature control (both too hot and too cold environments). 3. Draw and label arrows to indicate feedback loops. 4. Label Receptors, Integrators and Effectors. What happens when you get a fever? Fevers are the result of two different body systems communicating and coordinating (immune system and thermoregulatory system). The control center changes the set point/ "normal" data that it compares the incoming temperature data to. 1. In a different color (or in a separate drawing if you don't have colored pens available) draw a feedback loop for a person with a fever. 2. Draw and/or describe how the control center changes first, and the body has to catch up. Connect this thermoregulation to the cycle back-and-forth that you feel between "the chills" and "the sweats" when you have a fever for a day or more. Positive Feedback in the Human Body Draw and/or describe a positive feedback situation that involves the human body.

Art-labeling Activity: Negative Feedback: Control of Body Temperature Drag the labels onto the diagram to categorize the processes and location of negative feedback in the body. Homeostasis DISTURBED BY DECREASING body temperature below 36.7°C NORMAL BODY TEMPERATURE Homeostasis RESTORED BY INCREASING body temperature Thermoregulatory center in brain (hypothalamus) Receptors Decreased blood flow to skin Skeletal muscles Body's temperature sensors Control Center Homeostasis Decreased sweating Shivering Respond with Information affects Sends commands to Blood vessels and sweat glands in skin Restored Stimulus Effectors
