Homeostasis

Definition DEFINITION: Homeostasis is the process by which organisms maintain a relatively stable internal environment The internal environment of cells are kept within certain limits by the coordinating systems of the body These systems monitor all the activities of cells, their requirements and the wastes they produce – this is to maintain health. This is called homeostasis.

Stages of homeostasis Detecting Changes: The body needs to maintain a ‘stable state’ in order to function properly Changes, or deviations, from the stable state are caused by the external and internal environment Any change, or information, that provokes a response is called a STIMULUS RECEPTORS detect stimuli; organisms then react to the change Examples of external stimuli: light, day length, sound, temperature, odours Examples of internal stimuli: levels of CO2, oxygen levels, water, wastes, etc. Receptors can range from a patch of sensitive cells, to complex organs like the eyes and ears of mammals

Counteracting Changes After receptors detect changes, organisms can then react to the change This type of response will counteract the change to ensure the stable state is maintained EFFECTORS bring about responses to stimuli Effectors can either be muscles or glands: Muscles bring about change by movement Glands bring about change by secreting chemical substances

Feedback mechanisms Homeostasis involves the detection of the change in the environment and the response to that change The mechanism that brings about this change is called FEEDBACK In feedback systems, the response alters the stimulus In living organisms, the feedback system has 3 main parts: Receptors: A type of sensor that constantly monitors the internal environment Control Centre: Receives info from the receptors and determines the response Effector: Restores the set value. Keeps environments stable.

Feedback mechanisms An example of a feedback system would be the control of body temperature These receptors send their information to the control centre The temperature control centre in mammals is the hypothalamus The hypothalamus responds by initiating responses to increase or decrease temperature, until it goes back to the set value (which is 37ºC)

Role of nervous system The nervous system works to regulate and maintain an animal’s internal environment and respond to the external environment The nervous system is made up of two parts, the central nervous system, and the peripheral nervous system: Central Nervous System: This part acts as the CONTROL CENTRE for all of the body’s responses. It coordinates all the responses. It is made up of the brain and the spinal cord. It receives information, interprets it and initiates a response. Peripheral Nervous System: This is a branching system of nerves that connects receptors and effectors. This system transmits messages from the central nervous system and back. It acts as a communication channel.
