1) Whatȱisȱhomeostaticȱregulation,ȱandȱwhatȱisȱitsȱphysiologicalȱimportance?
Answer: Homeostaticȱregulationȱrefersȱtoȱadjustmentsȱinȱphysiologicalȱsystemsȱthatȱare
responsibleȱforȱtheȱpreservationȱofȱaȱconstantȱinternalȱenvironment.ȱThisȱenablesȱcellsȱto
maintainȱmetabolismȱandȱtheȱchemicalȱenvironmentȱthatȱstabilizesȱtheȱlivingȱstate.

2) Duringȱexercise,ȱbloodȱflowȱtoȱskeletalȱmusclesȱincreases.ȱTheȱinitialȱresponseȱthatȱincreases
bloodȱflowȱisȱautomaticȱandȱindependentȱofȱtheȱnervousȱandȱendocrineȱsystems.ȱWhichȱtypeȱof
homeostaticȱregulationȱisȱthis?ȱWhy?
Answer: Theȱinitialȱincreaseȱinȱbloodȱflowȱtoȱactiveȱmusclesȱisȱanȱexampleȱofȱautoregulation.ȱFor
example,ȱwhenȱoxygenȱlevelsȱdeclineȱinȱaȱtissue,ȱtheȱcellsȱreleaseȱchemicalsȱthatȱdilate
localȱbloodȱvessels.ȱThisȱdilationȱincreasesȱtheȱrateȱofȱbloodȱflowȱandȱprovidesȱmore
oxygenȱtoȱtheȱregionȱevenȱbeforeȱresponsesȱfromȱtheȱnervousȱorȱendocrineȱsystemȱtake
place.ȱAutoregulationȱdoesȱnotȱrequireȱtheȱnervousȱorȱendocrineȱsystem.
