In addition to carrying information between the brain and the peripheral
nervous system, the spinal cord also functions

to coordinate fine movements in skeletal muscles
to carry impulses which control heart and breathing rates
as the control center for some reflex actions
as the control center for production of digestive secretions
Hormones move through the circulatory system and come in contact with
all tissues in the body. Whether a group of cells is targeted by a particular
hormone depends upon

Below is a list of steps that describe how a positive feedback system works in chemical messaging. The list is out of order. Placed the list in the proper order. 1. A sensor in a persons finger senses a change in the bloodstream. 2. The chemical messenger triggers the production of a specialized protein in the finger in response to the original signal. 3. A chemical messenger is released from the brain and travels to the finger. 4. As the specialized protein is made in the finger, it triggers the production of even more specialized protein. 5. The brain determines that conditions are no longer in homeostasis.arrow_forwardCells communicate in ways that resemble humancommunication.

- The nervous and endocrine systems work together to maintain homeostasis. These two systems differ in terms of method of communication, speed of communication, duration of response, target pathway, and actions of effectors.Select the FOUR statements below that describe the endocrine system. Sends hormones via the bloodstream Sends hormones via neural pathways or electrochemical transmission Fast-acting (milliseconds) Slow-acting (minutes/hours/days) Causes glands to secrete or muscles to contract Causes changes in metabolic activities Acts on specific glands or muscles Sends hormones to a broad range of target cellsarrow_forwardSUBJECT:PURPOSIVE COMMUNICATION Read the following situation and answer the question follow: James Warick, Director of Physical Plant at Southern Hospital, e-mailed Diane curtis, Director of Nursing informing her of a leak in Operating Room 1 that must be shutdown for repairs early next morning. Curtis forwarded the message to Joanne Messing,the operating room nurse supervisor on duty for the night shift. Messing, tired from a long nights work, handwrote a message and taped it on the bulletin board to the nurse supervisor in the day shift to switch the 8am operation from room 1 to room 8 David Swanson, the day shift nurse supervisor, arrived at 7:30 a.m and found Dr.Roberts shouting that his patient was ready for surgery ,but no rooms were available because Dr. Jones had already taken 8 rooms. 1.Enumerate the channels of communication used by each person.? 2.Should different channel of communication have been used instead?why? 3.

Linked to genetics: Researchers do not know the cause of restless legs syndrome however, they suspect that genes play a role. Nearly half of people with RLS also have a family member with the condition.2. Because RLS seems to be caused by a dopamine shortage in the brain, drugs that stimulate the cells to produce Dopamine are a form of therapy.3. Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a disorder of the part of the nervous system that causes an urge to move the legs. Because it usually interferes with sleep, it also is considered a sleep disorder.4.

- Describe how the nervous system and the endocrine system work together in the fight-flight response. Be specific with what parts of the nervous system are at play, the signal pathway, what is released/secreted and what response they create.arrow_forwardSelect the 4 statements that correctly describe positive feedback pathways. A sensor/receptor is required to monitor and limit levels. A sensor/receptor is unnecessary to monitor and limit levels. Feedback prevents homeostasis. Feedback contributes to homeostasis. Feedback stimulates the effector to continue to do the same thing. Feedback stops the effector from doing one thing and stimulates it to do the opposite. When the target level for a hormone is reached, feedback results in a reduction of that hormone being released. When a target level for a hormone is reached, feedback results in an increase of that hormone being released.arrow_forwardENDOCRINE SYSTEM: IDENTIFICATION Is an organ found in the female reproductive system that produces an ovum: OVARIES A polypeptide hormone that plays a major role in bone remodeling and calcium homeostasis, by increasing the concentration of calcium in the blood. * Your answer Aside from the nervous system, which organ system is responsible in maintaining the homeostatic balance in the body?
