Question

Complete the sentences describing homeostasis and the activity of antagonistic effectors. Range effector Increasing dynamic decreasing Homeostasis is not constant; rather, it is best described as a state of dynamic constancy in which conditions are stabilized above and below the set point push pull sweating shivering synergistic Control by antagonistic effectors can be described as which the increasing activity of one effector is accompanied by the decreasing activity of an antagonistic effector set point For example, body temperature (see above) is maintained by two mechanisms: when the body temperature increases occurs; when the body temperature decreases ocours. This achieves a much finer degree of control than simply switching a single on and off Reset 80 5

Explanation / Answer

For example, the body temperature is maintained by two push pull mechanisms. When the the body temperature increases, sweating occurs. When the body temperature decreases, shivering occurs. This achieves a much finer degree of control than simply selecting a single constant on off.
