Analyze the feedback mechanisms that maintain homeostasis, and what happens when these systems do not function appropriately

Biology
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]3 years ago

 <span>The primary feedback mechanism that the body uses in order to maintain homeostasis is negative feedback. These feedback mechanism works through various pathways with centres in the brain acting as an integrating centre. For example, when you eat something and digest and absorb it, your body will release insulin in order to prevent glucose levels from becoming to high. If any feedback mechanism malfunctions, you have a disease state.</span>

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

In chemical transmission the release of chemical messengers known as neurotransmitters occurs. Neurotransmitters carry information from the presynaptic or transmitter neuron to the postsynaptic or recipient cell.

As you may recall from the article on the structure and function of the neuron, synapses are usually formed between the nerve terminals - axon terminals - of the sending neuron and the cell body or dendrites of the receiving neuron.  

Scheme of synaptic transmission. An action potential travels through the axon of the presynaptic or emitting cell, and reaches multiple axon terminals branching from the axon. The axon terminal is adjacent to the dendrite of the postsynaptic or recipient cell. This place of close connection between axon and dendrite is the synapse.

A single axon can have multiple ramifications, which allows it to synapse with several postsynaptic cells. Similarly, a single neuron can receive miles of synaptic inputs from many different presynaptic or emitting neurons.

Within the axon terminal of a transmitter cell there are many synaptic vesicles. These are membranous spheres full of neurotransmitter molecules. There is a small space between the axon terminal of the presynaptic neuron and the postsynaptic cell membrane, this space is called synaptic space.

Agricultural economies are still used in some countries of the Middle East, especially where other natural resources are few. These economies are often associated with a lower standard of living. Herding and livestock raising is a common means of income in areas too dry for farming. Animals raised include cattle, goats, and sheep. Farming often occurs along the coasts, but may also occur in drier areas if irrigation watering methods are used. Some people choose to practice subsistence farming methods, growing only enough food to feed their families. With little fertile soil in the region, it is tough to make a living growing and selling large quantities of crops. Major crops in the Middle East include wheat, cotton, and citrus fruit.
