False
Define what each of the following does in a negative feedback loop: (1) Receptors (2) Control center (3) Effectors
(1)Receptor receives input about a change in a controlled condition & sends it to control center (2) Control center evaluates input and decides whether or not to react; sends decision to output (3) Effector receives output and reverses the original change to maintain dynamic homeostatic conditions

Final Jeopardy Make your wager
Are viruses living or non-living? Explain the reason for your answer
Non-living Do not possess all of the characteristics of life For example: Cannot reproduce on their own-need a host Cannot obtain and use energy on their own
